So far this is the only place I've seen mentioned regarding video streaming, that is still up anyway:
It's not entirely clear and I don't know if this is outdated or not.
I was using their proxy for video streaming for a while, but stopped cause I would rather not risk it. Maybe for personal use it could be ok
How much was it before?
I started using it yesterday and so far I'm liking it
Oh, thanks for pointing that out. Didn't know
So I got mixed results. With remote access disabled and just using subdomain for plex, it worked on the Windows desktop app, and my iPhone too through the browser, but on my Apple TV even though I could browse the library and select any video, they would not load.
What ended up working on all my devices is essentially running plex behind a VPN, AirVPN in this case because I need the port forwarding, and enabling remote access with the port assigned in AirVPN.
I followed this guide, in case you're interested: https://reddit.invak.id/r/PleX/comments/152kihs/guide_plex_remote_access_without_port_forwarding/
I wonder if you can get around this by using cloudflare proxy for a domain and then in the settings for the server disabling remote access and only allowing discovery through your domain? I'm not with Hetzner but I'll give this setup a try and see how it goes.
A VPN from Cloudflare if I'm not mistaken, with a free tier.

I had forgotten about this. Looks neat still
Infuse allows you to watch content from different sources such as Plex, Jellyfin, and other options I haven't look at in detail. I think it's worth a look
I currently have a VPS with Contabo. I think their prices are good. They have normal VPSs for more compute power with nvme storage, and they also have what they call Storage VPS, which I assume uses SATA ssds but they give you more storage vs the other ones. I'd say give them a look
I found out about njal.la about 2 weeks ago, they give you one ipv4 and one ipv6 for €5 monthly, with all ports open.
No GUI though, they provide OpenVPN and Wireguard configs, which works fine for my server.
I think they only have their servers on Sweden IIRC, but at least in my experience the speeds with the Wireguard config have been great.
So far I don't have any complains about them. Having all ports open makes setting it up on the torrent client really easy.
Hey there, thanks for the tips. It seems I can't get the wireguard container working without the NET_ADMIN CAP. I looked at the gluetun image and it has it too. Is it possible to run a docker wireguard client without that CAP?
I recently went through setting this up. I can give you a base compose.yaml based on the one I have
For the wireguard config, you would throw your .conf file to /path/to/wireguard/config, like so: /path/to/wireguard/config/wg0.conf
This setup assumes you have ipv6 working and enabled. The wg0.conf would also have the VPNs ipv6 address. I use Mullvad too btw.
You can access Qbittorrent's web UI through http://localhost:8090.
I'd like to note that the image I use for Qbittorrent has support built in for VPN, but with the setup I have I basically have the wireguard container with its network, and multiple containers on that same network. In theory it should work with other bittorrent clients.
And the docker images for reference:
