Wow, I did not see any error. Anyway I followed your instructions and now plexpy is showing up in docker list. Thank you!

As you can see installation went well, but now there is also orphan image of plexpy that was not there before. I created today new docker image on cache drive. So it cannot be 3 weeks old.

I'm not sure what is going on. When I install this docker everything seems to be OK. I do get success message, but plexpy is not showing up in docker container list. It looks like is not installed at all.

Out of curiosity, I have question regarding doing recordings using this docker. Would it work with HDHomeRun Prime? I have Verizon FIOS + ceton tuners and recordings are done with Windows Media Center. Except for couple channels content is not copy protected, but still Windows requires PlayReady to be activated in order to make recordings. How would it work with HDHomeRun and this dvr docker? Recording are done on unRaid and they are available to all the clients on the network without restrictions? SiliconDust website has a product called HDHomeRun DVR. Are they talking about this software that is part of this docker?

OK, will do, One question. Is daapd refreshing music source automatically?

I see it right now. Thanks for the great docker

Sorry, maybe is a stupid question, but how do you use this docker. During initial setup I specified bot /music and /config folders and just like any other docker there is address with port http://192.168.1.2:3689/. When I click on on it it asks me for user name and password. There is no WebUI for it?

I'm trying to login to daapd for the very first time and is asking me for my credentials. I looked at conf file but I cannot figure out what to use. What is default user and password fro daapd? Thanks

There were no additional updates that would fix this issue. Therefore I decided to give a try and disable SMBv2 and SMBv3. After rebooting TOWER shows up in Windows explorer all the time. Clearly this problem is related to Samba protocol.

I check the DHCP settings on my router and Tower has "Static Lease Type" so I guess it means that IP is static. This Windows 10 Home 32bit shows version 1511 build 10856.0. I will check for updates and see if there is any improvement.

I'm really frustrated with Windows10. I decided to do upgrade to Win10 on one my computers and to my surprise TOWER is no longer visible when selecting Network items in windows explorer. I searched for solution and found one that requires add new registry key HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters\AllowInsecureGuestAuth That did not solve the problem. I added new windows credentials for Tower and I can connect to \\TOWER. Shares are accessible however after closing Windows explorer and rebooting everything is gone again until I enter in address bar \\TOWER I tested Win10 Home 32 bit and Win10 Pro 64 bit with the same result. This is the latest Win10 download. I tested local user in Win10 and microsoft account. Running Unraid 6.1.6 Any suggestions? Thanks

I have problem with post-processing files in Headphones. Everything works up to certain point. Nzb is sent to SAB and downloaded, FLAC files are converted to mp3 using ffmpeg and log files shows that post-processing is completed. I did specify in Headphones settings that files should be moved form cache drive (/mnt/cache/ready/music) to folders mp3 --> /mnt/user/Media/Audio/Mp3 and flac --> /mnt/user/Media/Audio/Flac but nothing happens. Headphones plugin is installed for user nobody, but I tried also root user and I got the same results Any ideas what might be causing this problem?

I think he is talking about mysql database, not headless docker.

I think you need to add to advancedsettings.xml database information. If you had previous version of XBMC working (existing database) than Kodi would simply create new database and move over all the tables and it takes couple minutes. <videodatabase>MyVideos</videodatabase> <musicdatabase>MyMusic</musicdatabase> MyVideos and MyMusic are default names, but you can use different ones, Kodi will add necessary number at the end See also if your older database contains any data. If it does, than delete MyVideos90 and MyMusic48 (Kodi 14.2), edit advancedsettings.xml and start Kodi to initiate process again.

I suggest you try some different tool to connect to your database and see if tables exist etc. Use the same user/pas that you have in your advancedsettings file. If you cannot connect, than there might be user rights issues and maybe you need to setup db from scratch. http://www.mysql.com/products/workbench/

It's official, I'm a noob

I have to say I'm a little bit confused. I was running unRaid 5 for couple years using only 4GB of memory ad swap file. I decided to move to version 6 and added additional 4GB to make total of 8GB of RAM memory. Based on opinion of other users. It should be sufficient to run unRaid + dockers. Well, not exactly. So I have following (18) dockers installed: Beets, BTSync, Couch Potato, CrashPlan, Duckdns, Handbrake, Headphones, Kodi-headless, Maraschino, MariaDB, MediaBrowser3, ownCloud, Plex, SABnzbd, SickBeard, Subsonic, TinyMediaManager, Tonido docker.img size is 20GB (used 13.29) Memory usage (8GB) was at around 97%. I turned off all dockers and stopped docker image and memory usage dropped down to around 56% I noticed that I started to have some buffering issues when watching content using Kodi.This happened like once every 3 weeks. After I rebooted my server problem stopped for a while. So I decided to add additional memory to make it total of 16GB. That should be more than enough. After upgrade I started my box and memory usage was around 75% of 16GB. To my surprise usage jumped again to around 97% and remains at this level. What is going on? Maybe somebody can explain this to me, why is this happening? maybe I need to create swap file again?

This is great. I like the second script. It uses built-in presets and in most cases is sufficient. FYI all HandbrakeCLI options can be found here https://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki/CLIGuide So following what you did, command line can be tweaked to include different options, like container, resolution, etc Here you will find info about built in presets https://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki/BuiltInPresets As you can see they are pretty long, but you can always adjust one of them to your needs.

Thank you

Sorry, I was not clear with my request. Currently converting files requires user interaction. That means you need to select input file, add it to queue and press start. I was hoping that this process could be automated. That means when some file is copied to certain folder, it triggers handbrake action (convert file). Or conversion can be initiated by shell script that is run from cron (scan folder, add to queue and start process). This would be very helpful when you copying wtv files from HTPC to unRaid for further processing. Some Windows applications use watchFolders method, it should be possible under Linux. It would be a killer app.

Thank you !!! Is is possible to add to handbrake watch folder capability (input and output)? Maybe there is a way to trigger action with script and cron job?

It really depends how much data you want to move to unRaid. For files and folders up to 20GB you can use standard copy/paste method. It takes somewhere between 15-30 minutes to transfer files. For larger folders I telnet to my box. Create a new directory and mount network share. This way I can use rsync script to copy files. Also you can use robocopy script on your PC to move those files to your server and it's much faster than copy/paste Once you have everything on your server, you do not do too much copying and writing speed becomes irrelevant.

I'm trying to re-import some of the items into beets library and I'm hitting a wall. I read wiki at http://beets.readthedocs.org/en/latest/guides/advanced.html but some things require additional explanation. I use this syntax to import item into library: docker exec Beets beet import /opt/tmp Item is correctly imported and added to beets library ==> musiclibrary.blb in config folder. I made some mistakes with certain files I would like re-import them but since they are in the library beets ignores already imported album folders. I tried to remove these items from library (not files but database entries) and when I run command line: docker exec Beets beet remove QUERY I receive prompt message "do I want to remove item y/n". Clearly typing ''y'' does nothing and I do not know how to pass this argument to Beets docker. I tried different syntax and all I get are errors. Please help

Problem solved. I would like to point out that provided suggestions may work for other users. In this case problem was related to corrupted docker.img file and installation of Plex container on top of the previous existing Plex folder and files. This issue is not related to router and port forwarding, however setting IP as static on your router maybe be beneficial. Before you proceed make sure you backup Plex library database and metadata. plexmediaserver\Library\Application Support\Plex Media Server\Plug-in Support\Databases\ plexmediaserver\Library\Application Support\Plex Media Server\Plug-in Support\Metadata\ 1. Remove all content from plexmediaserver folder 2. Install Plex container 3. Go to Plex WebUI and logon with your credentials 4. Go to your router and delete forwarded ports from Plex for your server 5. Go to Settings\Server\Connect and enter credentials. Plex should provide info that server was mapped to some port. You can verify this info on your router, the same port should be added in port forwarding section 6. Stop Plex server and change file permissions for files in Plex folder. Plex creates its own unraid-plex user, so you will not be able to delete files unless you change the ownership 7. Copy database and metadata files from your backup 8. Start Plex server Everything should be working now and you should have access to previous libraries. I repeated this steps twice and I was able to publish plex each time. Thank you for your help

@ dirtysanchez Tried your suggestions and it does not work. With network type "Bridge"and specified ports 32400 --> 18677 and reversed values WebUI did not load (401 error, unathorized access denied). Then switched back to Host type and entered port manually 18677 in connect settings , the same result, connection cannot be established. I disabled firewall on my router and no luck either. @ljh89 Where are those DCHP settings located?
