Thanks to your video, I was able to set up my Plex media server. It is the only video with which I was able to mount my PLEX server on my raspberry pi5. A greeting from Spain :)

@Ricks_Tech_Talk 3 дня назад

Great video, nice job. If I'm only playing 1080 videos on a local network, do I need to over clock it still?

Thank you for taking the time to create a complete guide for this setup. Your explanation of all the steps is really nice and easy to understand.

Hi, This video is great, but I'm running into a problem with the configuration upon reboot. I'm running this setup with three drives (independently powered and connected via a powered USB hub) and after a little bit of trial and error, I figured out how to modify the instructions given to properly format, label and mount all three drives. But now I'm running into a problems and errors and boot loops on any reboot or restart of the raspberry pi 5. I've been trying to find a solution to the problem online, but I cannot narrow down the solution to one I can apply to your guide. From what I have read, it seems like the issue I'm running into is related to either, (A) because of the way Raspberry Pi OS is configured, I think what I read said that PARTUUID may not 'static' for reasons related to using Pi's in a cluster, so the drives UUID may not be staying fixed after a reboot or (B) The instructions are missing code to set drive priority and/or drive timing so the Raspberry Pi knows to delay loading a boot drive until a specific drive boots which has the configured OS on it. I also read something about problems with rebooting where the OS may be writing relevant boot data to the extra mounted drives and it could be causing boot issues. I think the problem is likely (B) and the instructions need additional code to make sure the system only boots the Micro SD card and not the other drive(s). Do you know what code would need to be added and where in order to fix the boot issue?

@gravgazli 8 месяцев назад

Hey ! Thanks for your Tutorial. It was really helpful ! I see there is an update. Do you know how to update ? I right click and check update on my main menu on Casa OS, but it's wrinting that there is any update... Thanks

@manuelrico80 2 месяца назад

I'm interested in buying a raspberry for this. What is the experience with transcoding 1080p and 4k videos? Only one transcoding at a time. Thanks!

@kskroyaltech 2 месяца назад

Pretty much faster than Pi 4 bro for sure. 4K videos may take a bit of time for transcoding. But 1080P will work smoothly. GEt 8GB RAM Model dont go with 4GB ..

@DarrenValen 2 месяца назад

Thanks for the tutorial. Itc was a lot of fun following the instructions. I have run into an issue where after completing everything if it reboots it stalls and won't get past a boot saying something about the user doesn't have rights. I've done the installation twice and each time it dies the same thing. If you're kind enough to respond I'll be glad to post the exact error. The only thing i can think of is that the uuid that is displayed and copied send too short compared to the example. Anyway, thanks.

@kskroyaltech 2 месяца назад

Sorry for the late reply . Yeah sure you can tell me.

@@kskroyaltech no worries. I figured it out. The drive was mounted as NTFS not ext4. Sorted it out now it's good. 👍

@bap2139 Месяц назад

This is probably a dumb question but it is necessary to use CASAOS to run Plex on a raspberry pi 5 and use it as a home media server? Is it possible just to run the pi and Plex?

@kskroyaltech 28 дней назад

casaos makes the installation hassle free. Yes you can install PLEX on pi without the need of casaOS

@gabrielmarquez1885 Месяц назад

I followed all your step however when installing plex in casaOS i got this message Error response from daemon: could not select device driver "" with capabilities: [[gpu]] and plex logo is grayed out

@TequilaMario 6 месяцев назад

is the performance of the raspberry 5 much higher than the raspi 4? in case of streaming 4k videos inside my home network? sometimes my raspi 4 laggs while streaming high quality movies

@Aualan 2 месяца назад

same.

@MrCybergoku 3 месяца назад

thanks a lot man ! Some of you made the casaOS dashboard available over the internet ?

@TripHawkPilot 2 месяца назад

I would look up Cloudflare tunnels if you want access to casaOS on your pi outside your network. Otherwise, Plex can port forward and be accessible outside your wifi already.

@sivcrest 20 дней назад

ping -4 .local doesn't seem to find the raspberry pi for me. Any idea why? I had to log into my router instead to view current users. I noticed when I tried to ping like how you showed, it worked for some hosts but not for others. I'm curious as to why

@kskroyaltech 20 дней назад

It's a problem with routers. Its better to use a tool named advanced ip scanner www.advanced-ip-scanner.com/

@Darkfrost9818 10 дней назад

HI has anyone run into an issue when trying to connect to CasaOS via the IP. I am getting a 403 Forbidden and I have no idea on how to resolve it. Thanks

@fablapp 6 месяцев назад

Txs a lot! two questions: is CasaOs necessary? can the SSD be replaced by HDD? last what is the problem in using WIFI internet connection?

@kskroyaltech 6 месяцев назад

Yes you can use HDD ... Ethernet connection is the best cause when you ssh into pi 5 or access the casa OS with in a network you wont face any lag, latency will be very low where as WIFI module in pi 5 very bad I didn't like it. It drops the connection sometimes.

@fablapp 5 месяцев назад

it works really well but I got a problem when I reboot the Pi... I might have made a mistake somewhere when I made the mount automatic after reboot.... decided to skip the last passage and do it manually everytime a reboot is needed

@solodagci 6 месяцев назад

What about OMV 7 + Plex? It has GUI for drive operations (mounting and formatting) which is easier.

@kskroyaltech 6 месяцев назад

You can do that way also

Question, why you all use a MicroSD card if you can use a m.2 SSD with adapter (MicroSD Cards are not build for working space, it should used only for Data storage) ???

@regicidal9385 2 месяца назад

because the pi has a built in microsd cart slot your meant to use for your main drive

Usually means you referenced it in the wrong directory or misspelled the fstab ... maybe with a capital? Nano will create a new blank file if the target file doesn't exist.

@ten.7aku 8 месяцев назад

Pi 5 lacks hardware encoders, you can't use it for hw accel. There might bea chance someone will get hw accel to work with a dedicated gpu on the pi 5.

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong but my pi will not ping I used the name raspberrypi5 same as you and it will not work. Any thing I could be doing wrong?

@DestroyerOfWorldz 2 месяца назад

Did you add the .local after the filename? "ping raspberrypi5.local" if so the the most likely reason is that you mistyped the name and will have to plug in a monitor and keyboard to get to the command line and type in "ip addr". Or just start over ... its the only way to be sure. You could also connect to your router to and find the new device on it and its assigned ip address.
