Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Any low power device is going to struggle with video playback unless you're doing direct streaming. The exception being the new Intel N line of processors that have capable enough GPUs to do the transcoding. If all you're after is decent transcoding performance for H264/H265 video, anything newer than Intel's 7-8th gen CPUs will do the job. $100-$200 used optiplexes and thinkcentres can easily handle this type of workload.

Jellyfin supports HW transcoding on Rockchip too, but the issue with the Pi5 specifically is that it doesn't have a hardware media decoder so it's actually worse than the Pi4 if you can get HW transcoding running on it.
