Decided to buy another drive instead of doing any more harm than I needed to, no worries
unfortunately I was, lol
I’ve already bought another drive to avoid this funky shuffling, so I should be fine now
What’s the advantage in btrfs over ext4? I’ve kept hearing about it since I started with Linux but the only advantage I can see with it is the snapshot rollback feature, which while useful looking, I don’t think would be something I would use
Yep, I’ve just ordered another 8tb to copy to and avoid the headache that could be a drive failure. And it’ll certainly be faster, gparted is still giving a 13 hour ETA for the first resize! Thanks for the help!
The docs say jellyfin-ffmpeg is only needed on Debian distros, like Debian itself or Ubuntu, other distros like Fedora should be able to use their respective ffmpeg packages. https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/linux#ffmpeg-installation
Is there a reason you can’t have root on your VPS? Maybe you could ask to have Jellyfin and ffmpeg installed by an admin?
If your willing to try it, you could unpack the .deb file with dpkg -x <jellyfin-ffmpeg-for-your-distro.deb> <unpack dir>
and stick the resulting directory (directories?) in Jellyfin’s PATH, but I’ve never tried this myself and I don’t know how well this could work.
Big fan of running

and just being able to do things quickly!
