If you’re even remotely serious about it, Lifetime Plex Pass is the way to go.

Took me all of 8 days to decide to take the plunge over 10 years ago; possibly the most used $75 I’ve spent for a very long time. I’d have spent it many times over even if paying annually, let alone monthly for that long!

Keep an eye out for offers where they do discount from the current price.

I have Proxmox too, couldn’t get the iGPU hardware transcode on that to work with the i7 6700

It is definitely something i will look into, but looking at prices, ibwill need to wait for a sale

So have had a homeland for years using old commercial grade serves

To do all kinds of things such as plex, cctv, home assistant, reverse proxy server.

There are many ways to handle what you want to do but I would recommend using either an inks laptop or a small NAS to begin with I personally use Unraid (operating system) to manage my servers as it’s fairly straight forward to add apps such as plex and also to add virtual machines.

Then you can use something like Duckdns which is free and one off the many ddns apps that will look for an ip change and report it to duckdns but me personally I use cloudflare as it offers a few more features.

With duckdns you could host your plex at one of there subdomain such as yourname.duckdns.org then you could always reach your plex server as that website gets much harder when you have multiple apps or servers then you would want to be looking at a domain name such as yourname.com or really any one you want bar it’s not taken :joy:

But I’m sure the community myself included would be happy to help you out and steer you in right direction plus it’s always fun to learn new things

Well for me it is bud I’m sad like that :joy:

Good luck and happy plexing
