Jellyfin's an awesome open source home media server. I'll show you how I use it to organize my movies and TV shows.Part 1 (how I rip media to my computer) he...
I have a VPS from RackNerd for something like $11.5/yr. You can check some offers from them here.
To be clear, it probably won’t work well as a Jellyfin server since the storage and CPU capabilities aren’t great. But it’s pretty good as a relay, which is what I described above. I have a local machine, and I use the VPS to relay the connection to the open internet.
I had a question: in the $12/year plan from Racknerd, is the deal tied to a specific instance which you can spin up for that much money? Or can I just shut it down and switch it on the next day without extra charges?
I’m trying to find an API to use with Racknerd (SolusVM, but their documentation is a bit confusing for me) to be able to pull up VMs on demand. I basically want a new IP for my VM everyday, however requesting a new IP from Racknerd incurs fees, or so I have heard.

Still very cool, though. Thanks!

Mine is a KVM. It’s tied to a specific instance and IP. Changing the IP is not free.
Which means that if you shut it down, the plan is nullified?
Oh no. You can shut it down, and turn it on all you want. But you’ll retain all your data and IP address.
I see. Thanks.
