Hi there,

I’m a newbie here. I have a Raspberry Pi 4 model b. However, I’ve tried to run jellyseer, using Plex Debrid, and then to do the streaming to my Apple TV.

What I don’t know if I should try to use real debrid in another way, or maybe I’m not doing the right thing because I cannot stream properly.

Another concern is about the possibility to install a VPN, I’m using Proton. Should I install a Linux distro first and then, VPN, jellyseer and plex debrid?

Thanks in advance.

    What args have you passed to rclone? I found setting ‘—vfs-cache-mode full drastically improved streaming performance

        Sorry maybe I’ve misunderstood your stack. The “typical” plex_debrid stack has the debrid mounted via WebDAV using rclone so plex/jellyfin/whatever can see the stuff on your debrid as though it was a local file, only downloading bits of each file as they’re requested.

        The option I suggested lets rclone download to your disk as a cache, which I found mae the experience much smoother

          Got it!

          I’m reinstalling everything, even the OS, because for some reason I cannot run the python code to setup Plex Debrid.

    I’m not all that familiar with Debrid and you’re not exactly clear on what the issue is. But I will mention that I don’t think jellyseerr will work for you in this setup. Jellyseerr is meant to work with sonarr/radarr. It looks like to request content you have to add it to your watchlist in Plex instead.

    As for VPN, isn’t the point of Debrid to avoid torrenting and direct download only? VPN probably isn’t necessary, but if you’re paranoid then just make sure only the Debrid rclone is going through the VPN, you don’t want Plex to go through the VPN as then you won’t be able to connect to it from your LAN.

      Thanks for your insights…

      Sorry if I wasn’t clear enough. My problem is basically I cannot do the streaming properly. But as you pointed out, jellyseer and plexdebrid seems not to be the proper solution. I will try with Jellyfin and plexdebrid instead.

      About Debrid and the VPN, the question is that in my country of residency, as many others, torrenting is not legal. But here people seem more hunted for it.

        You don’t need jellyfin and Plex. They both do the same thing, so just pick one.

        And per the torrenting; isn’t the point of using Debrid that you’re NOT torrenting? You’re letting the service provider do the torrenting for you and they just serve up the file to you via direct download over https. And in this case, your IP isn’t exposed in the same way it is when you torrent.

          Yes, I already chose Jellyfin because it’s open source, for free, and very useful.

          Thanks again. I really appreciate your help, specially with your comments on the Debrid tool.
