Does it have to be pterodactyl? I have two servers set up with Docker and they were very easy to set up.

I use this: https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server

The gold standard for transcoding these days is a newer gen Intel CPU with integrated graphics.

The integrated GPU on those intel chips can do Intel QuickSync / QSV which will handle a dozen streams at once without breaking a sweat.

So far the closest thing was Plasma Bigscreen, but it’s still in development.

Functionally, it’s the right thing I’m looking for, but it’s not polished enough to fulfill my needs.

If this allowed folders and a GUI for settings, I think it’d be a winner.

Yeah another user mentioned this - definitely my #1 choice if it were fully released.

Oh fuck yeah this looks like the one.

Probably gonna do Fedora + KDE Bigscreen.

EDIT: It’s not released yet due to inactive development… bummer.

Wife would not approve of this because she loses her phone all the time. Also the kids don’t have phones.

I am looking for a solution that can be controlled by my remote

Do you use steam big picture mode?

I’d prefer not integrating Steam too much, since this is a shared computer that my kids also use.

I do like the UI of big picture mode, so if there were something similar that could be used by a remote or controller, that’d be top tier. Steam games could be added in via shortcuts

Correct, only the server owner needs the pass.

This has caused a lot of controversy because it was a free feature since Plex started and they’re now locking it behind a subscription.

I’ve had troubles on my windows machine with the controller not registering in-game. I have to use a third party program DSX to make it work.

If you’re on linux, DualSense controllers are awesome. I got mine for ~ $20 from a /r/buildapcsales post.

DREDGE is great and has about 10-20 minute loops before returning to port for repairs and sales.

If you’re on Android, there’s nzb360. The dev is awesome.

I name my devices after greek gods based on what I’m going in life at the time or after what their purpose is.

I named my first gaming PC “Poseidon” when I was doing ship related work. Now it’s my server.

My gaming PC is “Asclepius”, the Greek god of healing. Built when I got into healthcare.

Hermes, god of messeges, is my lil pi that helps with routing (pihole, pivpn, nginx).

My HTPC is Dionysus, Greek god of wine and parties.

My thinkpad is Persephone cus it looks good but doesn’t do much. I might rename it.

The services that I run on these are just named “device-service” e.g. hermes-nginx

Most of their profit is from enterprise/server cards, not consumer cards. They likely don’t care that much about the issues with the 5000 series

For the services already hosted by the VPS, I just point service.web.site to the appropriate localhost:port.

My hiccup is that the VPN software (pivpn) gives me an internal IP for the clients but pointing Nginx to that IP doesn’t work.

Network config confuses the hell out of me.

haha same 🥲

which IP are you trying to obfuscate with a VPN?

My goal was to hide my home IP by routing everything through the VPS. The VPN is hosted on the VPS.

Why don’t you just host your public services on the VPS, and whatever else private on your home equipment.

The VPS is 1 core and 35 GB of storage. I host several websites and some game serves on my home server.

The goal is to route the services through the VPN and point Nginx to them… but it doesn’t work.

The VPN is hosted on the VPS, which I rent and have full control of. It’s my own VPN between my devices.

The intent is to put my VPS between my services and the outside world so that it doesn’t expose my home IP.
