UPDATE: Many of you have asked for more detailed on the Hardware! Here is a full overview: kzhead.info/sun/i82ieNGdhpehhKc/bejne.html
Hi, one of the maintainers of Homarr here. Thanks for the amazing review here. You explained everything very well and easy to understand. Keep it up :)
Where can I find this?
@@running4fun74search homarr GitHub should be the first link.
Where is the maintainer?
I just got set up with Homarr and I have to say I am absolutely in love
Thank you for your efforts.
11:31 Dude is very strategically navigating a legal minefield right here. Well played.
Right. If someone requests a new movie the administrator can go out and buy the DVD and rip it. 😅
@@TheDayWalkerOfficial Yup, and Deluge is obviously just for linux ISOs
I really love the state of piracy and the state that so many pirates use. So many popular tools are legitimate in that they have legitimate uses. But in practice...
Idk, ripping encrypted media is also illegal technically. Bypassing DRM. Trade one illegality for another.
@@TheDayWalkerOfficialexcept that is still a breach, if you rip it and serve it.
That setup looks amazing. Any chance of a video showing a setup from scratch and how to integrate everything? Would be very interested to watch this.
bump that one
same, i want to see how to do this from the ground up.
As amazing as it would be, that wouldn’t be a video, it would be an EDITED 10 hour tutorial I imagine. Probably over a week of planning, recording, and editing for that one. Big ask. Hopefully he will with how popular the video is
Then it's 20 thirty minute videos and a whole lot of KZhead bucks for the creator. Bump
@@Mawyman2316 He doesn't need to tell you how to set up every app - just how to integrate it into Homarr that is a 10 minute video. The video of how to install, set up, mesh and integrate everything might be a bit longer...
WHAT?! There's a new Futurama season and I was oblivious to it?! 10 years without one and I get the news from a home server video on youtube... you made my day :)
A video to set up overseerr with sonarr and pia would be super interesting. Thanks again for the fun content!
Thanks for the tips, especially the dashboard and Kasm. I'm particularly blown away by Kasm as installed on my Raspberry Pi 4 with 8Gb
This is very insightful, thank you for sharing. I have two different computers setup as servers in my home lab...one running docker with Portainer and the other running Proxmox. Not the most consistent setup but it's working at the moment 😅
I loved the video! It gave me a lot of new ideas for my project! 🤩
This is why I watch these sorts of videos, I've adopted most of these dockers.
Looks amazing. Will try to install it later on. Many thanks!
I would love a walkthrough of your home networking setup! I'm trying to get my own homelab off the ground but the sheer number of possible networking configurations has me absolutely stumped as to how I should proceed. Furthermore, this aspect of homelabbing seems highly underreported--folks are happy to list the applications they run and the environments (kubernetes, docker compose, etc) but fail to mention how they configure their underlying network, where the ingress points are for the services, and just how external requests end up being routed. Having your point of reference would be great!
I'm with you. This looks amazing, but I'm not really sure where to start. A walkthrough to setup everything would be amazing!
Agreed, I would love to move my very basic setup on my desktop running off two hard drives to a NAS in the next month or two and absolutely love this setup just wouldn't know where to start @@GnobarEl
Love these kinda videos, helps my improve my own home server
I just set up a server so was looking exactly for this video
From your video I learned that Futurama was renewed! I had no idea they brought it back, yeay!
7:41 Very smooth sir!!
Nice video, gave me a ton of inspiration for some of the layouts and dashboards. Some of your pronunciations were cracking me up. Well done!
I loved this video! Would you mind showing us how to setup everything from scratch? I would definitely love to see that!
I'm with you!
Grab a spare old laptop. Install all kinds of stuff on it and need around. Break things if you like, you learn and curate your own tools
@@MrQuay03yeah but how
I love how many nearly stats-only things you have dude! That UI might be getting a test druve over here.
Holy shit! This is amazing! I need this setup.
Great video as always!!!
This is a very informative video, thank you!
Customation. Sirnology. Protainer. So many interesting new words.
That’s the first time I have seen Kasm. It looks cool. I will try it out in my test docker environment
The body keeps score is a must read. Glad to see another IT guy having it.
How do you back everything up? You should make a quick video on that. I'd love to see what your back up process looks like. That's a ton of applications.
Would Like To See More Of The Hardware Side Of Things
Cool video! I've been meaning to setup Mealie. That'll be fun to look into :D
I watched your video from last year and was thinking “wish he’d make a more recent one”. Alas, here we are. Amazing.
Could you please make a process video to show which hardware is good for home server and how you setup that Hopkinet setup with all those software.
This was one of my favorite vids. Very informative for both recreational users and us tinkerers 😂
Fantastic video, you have a new sub! You made me discover Mealie and Kasm, and I'm sure they would be a blast to use. A question: so you are managing backups all through the Synology NAS? It has the ability to backup to cloud also every app data? Because I've put tons of service and data on my NAS (is simply a Raspberry Pi 4 powered one) but I'm looking for a complete 3-2-1 backup solution: losing data and configs would be a disaster. I still haven't found something GUI-based, delta backup and easy to use that allow uploading these backup to a third party storage. I guess we are all underestimating backup until is too late :/
Homarr looks interesting, thanks for sharing
Seeing the Cooper book in your Kavita library was the wildest thing for me in this video.
Awesome video. Thank you very much. Can you estimate how much you have paid for the hardware running all this services?
Great video!! Didn't know about the recipe software. Will be a great addition to my home lab. Can you make a video about setting up NZBGET from start to finish?
I am curious why he fed Usenet through a VPN.
Oh boy - more ways to watch more TV programs. Just what I need !!!
the uueeghu at 17:02 had me ROLLING 😆
You showed a way of how to use docker in verious kind of uses .❤
Love this walkthrough! But please for the love of god stop saying Portainer as “Protainer”.
Kavita is also really nice in conjuction with a opds capable ebook reader. I'm using a oled tablet and Moon+ Reader and can easily access my whole library on the go and give friends and family access to it. (Especially my couple hundred gbs of textbooks that)
For moonReader, I can't seem to find how to integrate the OPDS custom natively, it always opens in a separate window from the app (as if it was a website). Did you manage to get it working natively in the app (no web ui opened)?
Yeah, works for me without a browser being opened. Only thing I did was create a new catalog under net library with the opds url of my user. Are you sure you copied your OPDS url and not just linked to the Kavita page? @@bouhisse5472
13:00 Very smooth 😎
Do you have a video of your home lab hardware? I'd love to see what these services are running on.
I'm going to be making that video next :) it's not too complex at all. Synology NAS, TerraMaster with UNRAID, and a newer Intel NUC.
I remember hearing you say that around the 3 minute mark. Thanks for the reply and the video! Lost my manners and forgot to thank you in the first message. I'm getting started with hosting some services on an old dell running proxmox, but with ram and cpu limitations, there's not a whole lot I feel comfortable running on it. After watching the first few minutes it had me wondering which is why I made the comment. Thank you sir!
"addicted to having access to a large amount of data" It's official. You're a robot. Probably from the same factory as Mark. Seriously though. Useful video. And homarr has made its way into my NAS now 🤣
will there be a setup video for this home server? i would like to do the same on my home network :) thanks.
When setting up Homarr, what do you need to put in for port and address for it to bring in the Docker instances?
You're awesome for this video.
Hi very nice video / setup 👍 would you please be interested in making a guide on how you set this all up please.
Get yourself some Folders on that Docker Tab on your UnRaid instance. Cleans things up a bit.
Walkable city and Suburban nation! Great choice of books : )
Awesome video! Audiobookshelf is my personal highlight as I was looking for a selfhosted alternative to emby (that dipshit always forgets were I was)
Curious on the hardware involved?
Id love to see how to setup a similar media server with that any apps that works cohesively
Could you do a video on the VM that you remote into? Looking at setting something like this up in the future.
I'm getting inspired by your videos. How do you get your docker containers to organize your files? (Videos, books, audio, vid etc).
I do it by pointing apps, that happen to be in docker containers, at the shared storage where the media is. It's the apps that do the work, the fact that the apps are in containers is incidental.
Nice 👍🏼 video Can you maybe do a tutorial for creating and setuping up a home network on a windows/linux pc running Docker?
Really enjoyed seeing this thank you. I am wanting to use Unraid but I don’t want to use a parity drive. It’s annoying all the warnings when you don’t. So ended up using just a Ubuntu server with portainer. But managing docker updates is nightmare. I’d love to see your watchtower video. Will look into that container.
Watchtower is awesome. I don't even think about updates anymore.
@@TechHut it looks CLI only. Or is there a web interface?
It's CLI, but I don't even really use that. It will automatically scan for updates every 24hr and handle everything. There are commands for force run it and change the times@@AmazingJ1985
@@TechHut thanks! I will be looking out for your video on this.
You'll be happy you have a parity drive if one goes bad.
but i am seriously interested in your firewall and database setup! the problem with such services is that no-one talks about them so for many (unexperienced) users they have some hellfire going on.
Maybe I skipped this in the video by accident but, how do you provision server with your applications?
Hey man, really appreciate the video and this kind of content. If one would run all of these services in one machine what sort of base hardware would you recommend? Cheers mate.
I'm running most of these services, minus the audiobook stuff and nzb get on a 2013 laptop with 4gb ram. SSD is a must ;)
@@alepouna aha... that is perfect. thanks for the info 🙏🏾
Mealie Question, my TrueNAS shows an AP available "mealie latest_17.0.23", but when I look on the WEB I see mealie is only at version 1.0.0beta-5. Are their Two Aps by the same name/function or is there an imposter?
@TechHut is there a video on how to set it from the start, like starting from an empty server and install process to get it in this state, there may be no need to get to every single app, just one or maybe a few will be sufficient? If not do you plan on doing it, I have some hardware, but I need to figure out the software side of it. Thank you for all content and keep it up!
Please make a video and share the config to that beautiful dashboard! I would love to have something similar in my homelab
there is no need, just create the apps and arrange them as you like. it will take 10 second to put everything and organize as you like, and another 20-30 second per app to add the API keys and stuff needed :)
I see you have portainer-agent running on your unraid. I cannot find this in community apps anymore. It has both versions of portainer itself but not the agent. Did you install it from there or elsewhere? If you grabbed it from elsewhere could you do a video on installing it on unraid.
network settings for plex to browse plex locally to allow local network unauth access
Just installed homarr dashboard and got it setup with Plex,sonarr, radarr,Sabnzbd. But added the media widget and got Plex icon in bottom right of widget. But not showing any active streams. But I have 2 active?
So do you have one vm which is running docker with all your applications?
Make a video about how to install and configure such a dashboard.
how to setup all that stuff in windows pls make a full vidoe
My next big project will probably be IP cameras, would love to see a video on camera recommendations and walkthroughs of necessary software
Just be careful with cameras like Eufy that claim to be local only but actually send face data and screenshots to their servers 😬
@@nadiro yep exactly my point, I’m looking for a local camera I can use with POE and store footage directly to my media server.
@@ripits_62 have a look at the Reolink range of IP/POE cameras that they have. They seem to have a very good reputation & are totally local.
a proper installation of jellyfin, sonar etc. using homer or other dashboard with all the media codecs installed. id love if u can make a video on it :)
love your video and trying to add a bunch of your suggestion to my network, can you answer one question for me? how do you add the docker intergration in homarr with portainer im stuck on that part. also i just started with docker and portainer so im a total noob.
Unraid has a built in VPN manager. You dont need a specific container with a VPN built in. Just set up your VPN in the VPN manager in Unraid settings and select the VPN as the network for the containers. Have you got your indexer routed through the VPN? Also I'm pretty sure deluge is pronounced "del-you-j". As in a deluge of rain. Thats why the icon is a rain drop.
I laughed when he said divulge 😂 I'd say it's more pronounced de-luge. Like a luge 🛷
So, I get this correct. Did you replace casaos with unraid or are you running unraid on something else?
i would like an series on setting up your home server and m confused that plex accesses the local video downloaded on server ? or from netflix or other services?
Why the windows 10 VM versus setting up your own VPN?
2:54 flashbang sound effect would have been top notch
Mealie looks very cool. I got it spun up in Docker and it looks a little different than yours does. for instance mine has a plus button lower right rather than the Create button that you have on the left hand menu. Are you using the image from hkotel? It's only a minor thing and i'm going to be using the hell out of this!
He uses omni nightly image which is 1.0 beta version and I believe you are using latest image which is older version.
@@gsiiThat must be it. I've been using the hell out of this since discovering it via this video.
Is there a video covering nbz? Got Deluge working thru unraid similar to his setup (probably not as great, very new lol) but unsure on the network being another docker container, news servers, etc.
Thanks for the video! What is the advantage of running plex on a separate "docker" mackine vs running it on unraid where your media is? I would expect some kind of latency accessing files across a network is it not noticeable?
Unraid uses docker under the hood. Different UI, I myself prefer the docker compose way.
This is so far beyond my skill level but I'm deeply intrigued. I'm going to build a home server and home lab. I have an Dell Studio XPS from 2007 that I want to rebuild as a project. Hopefully from there I can figure out what I'm doing with the server.
Great YT & thank you. Do you have any suggestions on how I can learn Debian Server?
server-world (gotta Google that one) has been my go to for any form of server management. It covers the majority of maintenance tasks for the more popular distros
Did you show the hardware already?
I like that your grandma has access to your Plex. I literally subbed for that.
i havea remote seed box with emby on it ,,,,job done
I like how you can make outt some of the blurred cover arts. Spotted the Miraculous Movie in there haha
Do you have a video on how to setup the HopkiNet Daskboard?
Hi Please create a video to set up the home ubuntu server and to access it from other networks like the droplet of digitaloceans, EC2 of AWS etc. It's a humble request. Thanks for your great content
Love the video, thank you. Not to be terribly pedantic, someone already pointed out the mispronunciation of Deluge, and this one is forgivable especially if anyone suffers from dyslexia... but it's por-tain-er (POR at the beginning)...not pro-tain-er (Not PRO at the beginning).
Hahaha that reaction to the salad on Allrecipes 😂
Nzbget seems unmaintained. Or are you using an active Fork?
I have a home server. All I do is rsync my files to it, though. Don’t really need anything more.
Great vid! Fyi it's 'PORtainer', not 'PROtainer, and 'deLuge' not 'deVulge' 🤗
nice video
Please make a tutorial on how to make that homer dashboard 😃
Homer is a different application. Homarr is the one he showed us.
Epic to know that TechHut lives in the best state in the US.
Could you hook us up with a docker compose file? Great tour BTW!
Can you please make an in-depth video about overseerr , sonarr , jellyfix end to end setup. I am not able to get a complete guid6
Nice save at 9:38, almost said that the VPN server (sponsor of the video) could fail 😁
what method do you use to get the docker containers on the nuc to access the files on your nas? Do you just mount a drive on your nuc that points to the nas and then mount that into your docker containers?
Yes, make sure you point the docker virtual volumes to the parent of of your content - for example, if you have sonarr /movies point to /media/external/movies, it WILL NOT WORK with deluge, i had to set sonarr /media to /media/external, and tell sonarr /media/movies was the acual folder. also, make sure you edit fstab to auto mount your NAS folders everytime on bootup, you should google a tutorial for this. Good luck.
