  • Ways to Expose Services Publicly

    Jump

  • Again, I do not run Jellyfin, but what you're saying seems contradictory to what the devs are implying: here and here. Since I lack the hands on experience, I will leave the issue with the experts.

  • Ways to Expose Services Publicly

    Jump

  • but what I tend to see is one or two people here saying that Jellyfin devs don’t recommend exposing it publicly

    I think what the devs are saying is 'don't expose Jellyfin to the public in an unsafe manner'. I don't run Jellyfin, but can confirm what you've read here. In that vein, don't expose anything to the public in an unsafe manner.

  • Navidrome repost: Heads-up: the next release changes all internal IDs

  • Question: Is there a hard limit for playlists? Reason being, I have a rather large collection I have converted from the physical media to flac. I have a playlist that is edging 100k songs. When I try to play it in the Navidrome UI, it takes at least 5+ minutes to even begin to play, and then forwarding to another song is neigh impossible. I can play other playlists smaller than that in the UI. Feishin, which is indirectly routed through Cloudflare, and not taping the local IP of the server, has no issues playing the playlist in question. Substreamer, iOS, has no problem either.

    Specs:

    Optiplex 7020 i7-49790 32 GB RAM

    .....which seems like it would be sufficient.

  • [Solved] Music on Jellyfin

    Jump

  • I recommend Navidrome for music. The only issue I have with Navidrome is that with a playlist that contains a large collection of music, bogs down to the point of being inoperable. So, I have to split the playlist into smaller chunks.

    Welcome to !selfhosted@lemmy.world - What do you selfhost?

    Jump

  • Welcome to the club. That's quite an impressive set up you have there. It would seem you have replicated the entire awesome-selfhosted list. LOL At any rate, welcome.

  • Shit I deleted my post. Yes I have been enjoying some greenery so you just have to hear me out. I have an old countertop ice maker that stripped it's gears. The refrigeration loop is fine. Pretty wild how small it is. I was wondering.....what if I provisioned some brackets on which to mount a muffin fan of unknown CFM, to blow across the coils thru several sheets of mesh of varying gauges to collect moisture drained off to an unknown location, and duct that indirectly into the computer, like a miniature Liebert server room cooling unit. I worry about the moisture tho. Constructing a desiccant wheel seems improbable. I could reheat the cool air upstream or mix warmer air in with the stream to so the outlet air doesn’t stay at a very low dew point and “rewet” downstream components. Perhaps with a small filament heat coil. HMMmmmmm

  • Sweet.

  • Is this a good first homeserver?

  • I pay around $8/month USD. Now, there are factors involved. One, electricity in my locale is relatively cheap. In addition, I have solar. To contrast the Optiplex 7020 SFF, I used run the same containers/content on a Dell T320. It cost $40/month USD. which still isn't an outrageous expenditure for someone with another type of hobby. Some of my other hobbies, like creating music, those prices climb steeply, rapidly. Last count I have 48 guitars, several banjos, 8 bass, an oud, mandolin, 4 full size Korg synth keyboards. three violins, and amps out the yang. So $40/month was peanuts, but I wanted something that wasn't such a hog. Plus the heat dissipated by the T320 was significant, and that is passed on to your AC bill as well. The 7020 is much quieter, energy efficient, and produces very little heat. Win, win.

  • Hybrid (CPU + GPU) inference is where it’s at these days. It opens up a whole world of huge MoE models, whereas on an 5090 you are stuck with Qwen 27B.

    Why you do this to me? LOL Injecting your options. But seriously thank you for the advice. I'm really green in the AI arena. So I'm trying to feel my way around, trying not to spend money on equipment I'll regret later.

  • Selfhosting Sunday! What's up?

    Jump

  • Be aware that you pay a significant performance penalty for going over occulink.

    And that's why it's tentative. The reason I'm leaning towards the dock is that, while the 5090 will fit, physically in the case, I am worried about heat dissipation. Even now, when I fire up a moderate model and run it through some paces, I can see the temps rising fairly quickly. So, if I'm going to drop that kind of cabbage on a 5090, the one thing I don't want to do is watch it turn into a shrink-i-dink.

  • Selfhosting Sunday! What's up?

    Jump

  • LOL Not quite, however, I am choking on the 5090 but as I understand, that's the better option, and 32 GB seems to be the sweetspot for AI. I actually picked up the tower and original RAM for less than $500 USD.

  • [AIT] Well, let's see.....nothing really new on the server. Still waiting for something interesting besides *.arr. I did provision a new tower with the following specs:

    • CPU: Ryzen 5 5600X
    • GPU: ASUS ROG RX 580
    • RAM: Came with 32 GB Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR4 / dropped another 96 GB in it.
    • SSD: WD Black NVMe M.2 iirc it’s about a 1tb
    • Asus motherboard
    • Working on acquiring a GeForce RTX 5090 32GB GDDR7 mounted on a OCuLink external dock (tentative - may change)

    This, obviously, will be an local AI machine

  • Your server looks fabulous, and I'm not discouraging you from pursuing it in the least. However, if I may draw from my own personal experience and what I am currently running, it may give you some ideas. Currently, I am running 53 containers on a Optiplex 7020 SFF with the i7-4790 and 32 GB RAM. Just checked and it's load average at this moment is: 0.47, 0.60, 0.73. Meaning it's pretty much in an idle state except for logging in just now. Grand total cost was less than $200. It consumes about $8 USD/month.

    Unless you're going to get into selfhosting heavy AI models, most stock PC, office discards, etc built in the last 10 years will do just fine for a homelab, with a little love like some additional RAM or a dual nic card. Immich and Nextcloud will probably require a bit more than 16 GB RAM running together. I don't run Immich, but I do run Nextcloud and it does just fine with the above set up. No lags, stutters, etc.
