Hi I have jellyfin installed in a VM with 24 cores and 32GiB RAM (VM also used for Docker). Whenever I attempt to play higher quality files, jellyfin crashes after a few minutes. I haven't seen it struggle with lower quality media.

Here are some logs: FFmpeg.Transcode-2024-03-24_16-11-43_d48825174d455ae3ff859d8b28582853_ce3f3ebf.log upload_org.jellyfin.androidtv_0.16.7_20240324161053_d2befd034e424a3490e7ea55af1fe1f2.log Fmpeg.Transcode-2024-03-24_16-11-38_d48825174d455ae3ff859d8b28582853_dafa4555.log FFmpeg.DirectStream-2024-03-24_16-08-12_d48825174d455ae3ff859d8b28582853_dac7115f.log

I cannot for the life of me figure out whats wrong. I've tried disabling plugins, different clients, hard resets etc, but it still crashes.

Can someone enlighten me?? :(

You can limit them in docker as well

https://phoenixnap.com/kb/docker-memory-and-cpu-limit You can spin up the same container on another machine with one command.

Docker seems to be easier, not?

Docker is great, and I have it running in multiple VM's. For me to restore everything without VM's would be a little tedious.

I'd have to search for Docker install instructions, follow the instructions like importing keys, adding the repository, doing the post-install stuff (adding my user to the docker group), etc. Not a big deal, but it's something.

Then I'd start copying data, making sure to keep the same folder structure so my compose files work. Then I start running all the commands to get all the containers back up and running (or in my case, creating 20+ stacks in Portainer).

This is all a bit tedious for me compared to opening the web interface for Proxmox, clicking on the backup (which is just "there" because it's on a hard drive (or a ZFS pool in my case)), and clicking "restore". Once restored it just boots up and my Docker stuff is good to go.

Can run multiple different os's - I have truenas, windows server, Ubuntu server for docker, etc
