Hi All,
I've put together some notes of my experiences using a separate PC as a NAS for Jellyfin.
https://github.com/bifferos/jellynas
It includes
It requires Linux mint on the NAS and Jellyfin server. Some parts still relevant if Jellyfin is on Windows, but the PC must be Linux Mint.
This stuff is all in a Zim notebook (a kind of personal wiki) form, if that's not wanted in a post here I can remove it, but it's much more convenient than using text on a forum, you can raise any issues there, and happy to merge PRs if I made incorrect statements.
Lastly there is a youtube video but it's just me walking through the Zim notebook and to set expectation it kind of sucks, but it's there, and not sure if/when I'll have time to re-do it as a proper talk with slides.

- How to merge the disks to create a single volume and share it
- How to power down the PC when Jellyfin is inactive
- How to power up the PC from Jellyfin on activity
