    Both are from the same author and generated from the same codebase, but since the dontpanic repo is managed directly by the add-on author I wouldn't be suprised if there were newer versions in that repo, or more frequent updates to that repo.

    Mm ok, how often do the kodi repo update?

    Change the port to something else that's not taken


    Subfolder proxy is not recommended as it doesn't always work. It often requires app support for base url.


    No idea about what kind of cert is used for dns. If web ssl certs are compatible, the instructions for sharing SWAG certs are in the SWAG readme.

    Ok.

    Yes but that requires that the image is downloaded through docker pull in the command line and thus the install through the GUI is rendered useless.
    I was hoping for a solution on the GUI option. Like an implementation of something like a checkbox "import SWAG ssl-dir"

    Can I run AdGuard and SWAG at the same time? There seems to be conflicting ports, and I can't leave that field empty in the settings for AdGuard. I have to change it to something else. I was thinking of using the reverse proxy function with a subfolder, if that's possible.

    Secondly, if I want to enable encrypted DNS in AdGuard, I need a certificate. One is created with Let's Encrypt in SWAG, but how do I import that into AdGuard Home? There doesn’t seem to be an option for that in the container when you install it from the LinuxServer repo in Kodi.

    I don't want to use the Linux terminal or run any docker pull commands. I prefer to make changes through the GUI.

    Yes I know, thank you :D

    I was wondering where this image went from the LSIO repo within Kodi. Since they mention it in the first post i figured it should be present in this list too.

    We at linuxserver.io no longer recommend portainer. In fact, we highly recommend against it due to various bugs and questionable design choices, which made providing support very difficult.


    We removed it from the linuxserver repo.


    We recommend and support containers created with docker run or compose.

    Aha ok!

    Another question, can i run AdGuardHome and SWAG at the same time? There seems to be conflicting ports and i cannot leave that field empty in the settings for AdGuardHome. I have to change it to something else. I was thinking of using the reverse proxy function with subfolder, if thats possible?

    Secondly, if i want to turn on encrypted DNS in AdGuardHome i need a certificate, one gets created with LetsEncrypt in SWAG. But how do i import that to AdGuardHome? There is no option for that in the container when you install it from the LinuxServer repo in the repository list in Kodi.

    Where do i find Portainer?

    And how do i install it?

    Regarding to this post Portainer should be used for other images that are not in the LS addon repostory and i guess it should reside at the LinuxServer Docker repository addon list?

    This subject is beyond my understanding but I can type code that is in front of me.

    Raspberry pi4, libreelec, kodi, openvpn, nord vpn. My issue is my fiber optic speed is 500Mbps but with the vpn service on I only get about 150Mbps, turn it off and I get my 500Mbps. Searching for a resolve I found that Wireguard is superior and much faster. My goodness the install process is quite involved. All I want is vpn on my setup that will get me closer to my available speed. Can I achieve that with Wireguard or are there other options to openvpn?

    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    Your problem is OpenVPN. That protocol is old and does not allow for higher speeds. As you have noticed, turn to WireGuard instead, it's much faster.

    Nope. The hotspot is intentionally simple and doesn't support much more than ON/OFF. If you need router features, you need to get a router :)

    Ah what a bummer!

    I have just replaced my router and the new one does not have WiFi, i figured i could be using this tethering (with decent speeds) while am awaiting the new WiFi puck. :D

    I'm just a novice and I have no experience with the Pi5, but it seems that you are asking for a lot of transcoding on one computer. I am probably incorrect, but maybe more experienced folks can chime in.

    PS: I would keep the server and clients on different machines.

    I don't do transcoding. The Raspberry Pi 5 has HEVC hardware support and all my materials are exclusively in HEVC (h.265/x265).

    When i play media the CPU meter in htop barley moves.


    EDIT: Besides, the HEVC is much smaller (due to compression and probably some other technologies) than x264 so it's a lot of hard drive space savings too to use this codec.

    I've been using the dontpanickodi version for ages .. works great.

    Are you running the Plex server on the same machine?
    PM4K worked fine for me until i ditched my dedicated plex server and merged it into my LibreELEC machine. The Plex server seems to be working fine, but PM4K got all weird and the interface is all blurry, grey and flickering. Except for the settings menu, in there it's all normal. It's the same on my PM4K on my RPi5 and the same on another RPi4 thats located at another place.

    I don't think it's the addon that does this, since it worked fine before i merged the plex server into my LibreELEC device. I have of course reinstalled the addon multiple times without any luck.

    But it would be interesting to hear if anyone else has this issue while running Plex server on the LibreELEC and also the PM4K client on the same machine.

    Cool, youre not running LibreELEC on this Pi then?

    My backup plan for additional cooling if needed, is simply to use a 'cooling fan pad' like this.

    Just put the pi in the FLIRC case on top of it and youve got all that surface area of the case, combined with active airflow.

    I am running LibreELEC on this raspberry pi 5. I have decided to cut down on as much devices as i possible can, and bake it into one device in total. At the moment this is working kinda good, in the future when i am going to expand to a bigger filesystem it's going to create some problems and i will be forced to run two devices. Mostly because LibreELEC does not support raid, and using raid over USB is not a good idea. I could build a sata NAS out of it with some additional plugin hardware for the raspberry pi devices, but then the bottleneck would still be LibreELEC's lack of raid, LVM and whatnot.

    I am running the stock fan cooler on my RPi 5 with some pibow case. The ninja one to be more specific.

    Pibow Coupe 5 (Case for Raspberry Pi 5) – Ninja (pimoroni.com)

    However i believe that the flirc case would have been better regarding the sound level this thing can create sometimes, with the caveat that metal cases causes a lower performance for the Wi-Fi connection.

    Set a link at /storage/.config/autostart.sh:

    Bash
    #!/bin/sh
    
    (
        ln -s /dev/disk/by-uuid/<YOUR_DRIVE_ID> /var/media/hddpath
    ) &

    i did it like this

    Bash
    #!/bin/sh
    
    (
        ln -s /dev/disk/by-uuid/53971acb-b470-4e13-86e0-214bdc22f621 /var/media/sda1-ata-KINGSTON_SNV2S20
        ln -s /dev/disk/by-uuid/e60c7dc1-9f50-4088-9686-2ce42f3f55b9 /var/media/sda1-ata-KINGSTON_SNV2S20/complete/tv2
    ) &


    and the first drive gets mounted at /var/media/sda1-ata-KINGSTON_SNV2S20 and the second one at /var/media/sdb1-ata-Samsung_SSD_840_

    inside /var/media/sda1-ata-KINGSTON_SNV2S20 there is a symlink 53971acb-b470-4e13-86e0-214bdc22f621 -> /dev/disk/by-uuid/53971acb-b470-4e13-86e0-214bdc22f621

    and inside /var/media/sda1-ata-KINGSTON_SNV2S20/complete/tv2 there is a symlink /dev/disk/by-uuid/e60c7dc1-9f50-4088-9686-2ce42f3f55b9

    not exactly what i wanted?
