system requirements - dayjob111 - 2025-10-16
I have an older intel mac mini i use for a media server. It's on an older OS and Can't be updated w/o some heroic efforts. What is the minimum system requirement to run Jellyfin? I scanned the forum and the website but couldn't find details on this.
Maybe i missed something obvious. been known to happen

oh. great. thanks. it was obvious wasn't it.

You can read about recommended hardware on that page.
Your usecase is not what the Jellyfin project aims to be used on.
