I have an Intel NUC running plex media server on ubuntu headless server. It’s running beautifully, and barely uses the nuc’s resources. The videos are stored on a synology ds923+ NAS.
I’m thinking of adding a couple of new services to the NUC and would like to move to a dockerised setup. This would involve moving the plexmediaserver into a docker.
Is there a good way to do this without having to recreate and rescan all the plex video libraries?
If you use hardware transcoding or similar features, you’ll have to find out how to pass the necessary devices through into the docker container!
This tutorial does this (if I read the compose fole right). https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2021/12/06/plex-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas-hardware-transcoding/
Not sure if it is any good, I haven’t tried it.
