I have an old 4th gen i7 I plan to use as a Jellyfin server, but can't play with it yet because video card in use in another system until the new one shows up.
So, just gathering info right now.
What I would like to do is set it up as the server, and stick it in the corner and never touch it again.
Can I connect to it on my other PC that's on the same network to do all the media scraping/renaming/deleting etc?
Server will be Win10, and my desktop Win11. Plan is to take my drives out of the NAS, put them into the server case, and on my desktop map them as network drives so I can easily cut/paste videos I shrink on my PC to the server.
After that, is there an app or something I can use on my desktop PC to open the Jellyfin server app and do all the maintenance on?
Ideally, I don't want to connect a mouse/keyboard to the server, or a monitor... just the ethernet, power and probably HDMI.... I might run the Server as a Client as well since 3ft from my main TV.
