This is very important as it’s the best, smallest and most well maintained version of Plex on Docker 🙂 With almost 1 million users at this time! Scroll down the list and ‘add’ the version made by Linux Server IO. Install the Community Applications plugin and search for Plex. Just Google “Setup docker on unRAID” and you’ll have posts, guides and videos to help. Time to set up docker, there are guides on this already, so I won’t re-invent the wheel. Setup a user share on unRAID (if you’re using unRAID 6.2 it’ll be done for you!) but mine’s called appdata and it’s located here: /mnt/cache/appdata/ I named mine plex.zip and just sent it over to \\Raptor\Other
UNRAID SETUP DOCKER ARCHIVE
7z *insert archive format of choice* – Because moving potentially thousands of titchy tiny files is going to take a decade! – Then copy it somewhere to your unRAID machine. You need to locate your PMS appdata, on Windows it’s here: Ensure you disable the emptying of trash before you do ANYTHING involving moving your userdata. I checked out the FAQ here – It’s certainly helpful! But not close to a step-by-step unfortunately, but that’s why I’m here. I’d had Plex up and running for ages, starting again and losing every single scrap of metadata, every bit of watch history, all the custom names, posters and ratings… I just couldn’t chuck it all away just to move to a more efficient way of running PMS. Could I find even an attempt? – NopeĪhh, it’ll be on the FAQ! – Nope (Not in anywhere close to enough detail to be of use to anybody…) Of course, my first port of call was to see if somebody else had tried doing this before. “I didn’t fail, I found 2,000 ways how not to make a light bulb” Thomas A. I’d heard of unRAID users using various plugins and ‘Dockers’ and this all seemed very nice to me but I continued using Windows because I didn’t want to fix what wasn’t broken (Boy… If only I always thought like that 😉 I rarely leave anything alone just because it’s “working” everything can be improved with some healthy tinkering! And when I mess up? Well then I’ve learned how not to do something) 1 for Plex and 1 for my NAS, which was a complete waste TBH!
UNRAID SETUP DOCKER TV
(So my Films and TV episodes all reside on user shares accessible via SMB / Samba / CIFS) And, as I said here in my trip from FreeNAS to unRAID, I had 2 separate servers. After my lovely adventure moving from FreeNAS to unRAID I tried to figure this out and ended up spending about a 100 years trying to accomplish it! I wasn’t as competent with Linux back then as I am now (and I’ve still got a ways to go!) But with the help of a friendly redditer, I got it figured out in the end.
