However, many consider the 24/7 uptime that a dedicated server enables to be well worth it, with VPS solutions even working out more affordable than home servers in some cases once you consider the electricity bill. Streaming Plex from a remote server has its disadvantages, namely that you’ll be using your internet bandwidth to download the content like any other streaming service rather than distribute it across your home network via your router. Though its used most commonly on local networks to seamlessly transcode and deliver TV and movies to different devices in the household, it’s also possible to use Plex to stream to a device when you’re away from home, or to your home from a remote Virtual Private Server (VPS). If you have a large local media library you’ve probably heard of Plex – the platform that lets you quickly organize, curate, and stream your content to other devices. This may have been due to exiting while the program was still scanning folders when the media library was still enabled, but it's stupid Java, so who knows.Sign up for BitLaunch today and quickly install Plex on Ubuntu 20.04.
One time so far the javaw.exe process stayed stuck in memory on exit, consuming over a GB of RAM. And it doesn't mention that the server has to be restarted to recognize this change. I had to disable transcoding of mp4 and others, because it was transcoding most files even though my WDTVLive device supports them directly just fine. I disabled and forego the media library to avoid this. Only caveats I've found: - The database size it creates for a modest media library it rather large, and takes forever to scan. But the program is nicely configurable, and does work rather well. Well, it's still a thing made with yucky Java, but at least now it includes its own runtime of it, so there's no ancient security risk, system polluting, full Java install required anymore! Of course, being Java, it's a RAM, CPU, and disk space hog.
