Oh awesome, that is great to know. Looks like I should do a little more Frigate research.

 

I'm working on getting rid of my Nest cameras around the house and trying to figure out my best option for an NVR. I really only have need/want for 2 cameras right now. One is the doorbell, and another is just a camera pointed at my back door/garage doors. I've already replaced the doorbell with a Reolink, and the other one is on the list for replacement soon.

As far as hardware I currently have the following possible landing places for Frigate(or other software):

  • Lenovo ThinkCentre M910q with an i5-7500T
    • This currently has a Proxmox with:
      • Linux Mint VM (running Jellyfin inside here)
      • Several other LXCs (adguard, docker, tailscale etc)
  • Lincplus Lincstation N2 NAS running Truenas
    • This currently has Immich running as an app

I don't really need a ton of long term storage or video or anything. A few days would be more than enough, especially if I am able to get some smart alerts through Home Assistant as well.

I have thought about buying another mini pc of some form and dedicating it to Frigate because I understand it can be a bit resource hungry, but I don't really know for sure if that is necessary. Another option along those lines would be to just buy a Reolink NVR.

I have also thought about moving Jellyfin to an LXC and passing the intel igpu to Jellyfin there. And then I could run Frigate inside of Docker? Do I understand that I could then share the igpu between Jellyfin and Docker/Frigate?

I know this is all kinda scattered. I feel like I almost have too many possible options and I don't know which one is best these days.

I used Music Assistant a little bit some time back. It seemed promising but it was pretty slow. It left me wondering if the CM4 in my Home Assistant yellow was to blame. I've been thinking about installing the CM5. Does anyone think that would make music assistant work better for me?

It's a big dill.

 

I have added an SSD to my computer that hosts Jellyfin where I want to have my Shows and Movies folders. When I go to add them to my library I get the following error:

The path could not be found. Please ensure the path is valid and try again.

So the path I had entered was /media/RVAtom/SSD. SSD is the name of the drive, and it was not offered as a choice by Jellyfin, I typed the SSD part myself.

I get the impression by reading some stuff that I either need to mount the drive at each reboot, or give jellyfin permission to read (or read and write?) that drive, but I am not sure how to go about that.

 

I am not sure what I have done to my Jellyfin install. I have been having various issues with my computer that I am using for Jellyfin and when I fixed one (ran out of hard drive space) I now have this one. I do not believe Jellyfin is starting when I reboot my computer. Here is the output of my logs file:

I googled "There is an error in XML document (0, 0)." and was completely overwhelmed by the posts and solutions I found. Is that even the best starting point for picking this apart?
