Your Raspberry Pi Projects

Jellyfin looks interesting. Have you ever used Emby? Wondering how they compare or if there's any reason to switch. Considering setting up a new media server soon, as I'm getting sick of Netflix's limited library - my old one had Emby which seems to do everything this does, but I'm always keeping an eye out for better options.

Edit: NVM, figured it out. Emby went semi-closed / pay for some features. Jellyfin forked it to keep full functionality free. How's the stability? Do you use sync it with your Kodi library?

Jellyfin as a fork is 100% better, since they did their stupid pay for play stuff on Emby, I have used it since day 1.
No issues

In my use case it's stable.
Only issue is chromecast if using it remotely which I think is being fixed in the next release.
Devs are very active on Reddit as well.
Its an awesome project.

It syncs to kodi for a unified experience
 
I have started playing with Docker in an attempt to simplify my HTPC, using Anand's great guide.

All worked 100%, except for Radarr, which refuses to allow connections. Tried with two containers ...

The Radarr FAQ blames an out-of-date library that - being a Linux noob - I wasn't able to implement :(

Hardware is a 3B running the current version of the Raspberry Pi OS.

Any help greatly appreciated.

who is Anand?

You will need to show us your docker configs, for the containers. Do you have it in a docker-compose.yaml file or something?

Either way, ultimate guide is this: https://www.smarthomebeginner.com/traefik-2-docker-tutorial/

Edit: Also make sure you use a good radarr container.

Currently this one works perfect for me:
Code: 
  radarr:
    container_name: radarr
    restart: always
    image: linuxserver/radarr:latest
    volumes:
      - ${USERDIR}/radarr/config:/config
      - /volume1/docker/mnt:/mnt
      - /volume1/media:/volume1/media
    environment:
      - PUID=${PUID}
      - PGID=${PGID}
      - TZ=${TZ}
    links:
      - sabnzbd:sabnzbd
      - transmission:transmission
      - hydra:hydra
      - hydra2:hydra2
    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.backend=radarr"
      - "traefik.frontend.rule=Host:radarr.${DOMAINNAME}"
      - "traefik.frontend.redirect.entryPoint=https"
      - "traefik.port=7878"
      - "traefik.protocol=http"
      - com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true

Anand is the author of the ultimate guide that you linked to. I used version #1 of his guide, which I found to be a lot simpler, especially since I don't require Traefik.

Herewith the relevant portion of the Composer .yml file

Code: 
  radarr:
    image: "linuxserver/radarr"
    hostname: radarr
    container_name: "radarr"
    volumes:
      - ${USERDIR}/docker/radarr:/config
      - ${USERDIR}/Downloads/completed:/downloads
      - ${USERDIR}/media/movies:/movies
      - "/etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro"
      - ${USERDIR}/docker/shared:/shared
    ports:
      - "7878:7878"
    restart: always
    environment:
      - PUID=${PUID}
      - PGID=${PGID}
      - TZ=${TZ}

Woops my bad. TIL the author name.

Yeah that looks fine. I wonder if it is an arm specific issue then as my radar is on the synology Nas with x86 arch.

Code: 
docker-compose logs -f --tail 100 | grep radarr

What is in the radar logs?
 
Anybody got some good ideas for building a cheap 3 pi rack of sorts? The cheap plastic ones on amazon are expensive enough that I'm not keen

If you have unused Lego lying around that can work.

It's popular on the internet to 3D-print such things as well if you have access to such facilities.

This appears to explain the issue. Will investigate on the morrow

EDIT: Problem solved :)
