Hello. I read JF's extensive (and very helpful) page on recommended hardware (https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/admini...selection/) but am unclear on a point.
It lists CPUs with integrated graphics that are recommended, but then further on it says not having a dedicated GPU is not recommended. ? I assume then they only included the iGPU CPUs knowing not everyone will get a discreet GPU? Or maybe I'm reading it all wrong?
I need to keep server/power costs down to a minimum, so was considering something with an N series Intel and UHD 750, or if I don't go that route, a small HP DT with an i5-11400 or similar.-11
My needs are small. OTA channels from the roof antenna (to watch/record) and that's it. No streaming subscriptions, no Netflix etc. I do not have a 4K TV and will be the sole user, so would only be streaming one thing at a time. I also won't be using JF outside my home. (But I will be streaming to one of the 4 TVs in the home depending on which room I'm in.)
Am I 'safe' with a general setup as described? (Will be installing Ubuntu/16GB RAM/SSD for OS/Raid 1 HDD for storage.) Thanks for any guidance.
