Luckily I already have a Plex/Jellyfin server, so having a device running 24/7 isn’t an issue. But my experience is primarily on the HTPC side of things, so I’d appreciate any tips! I’m probably going to run it headless for now, but may eventually install a dashboard once the dust has settled on getting this running.

I already have a few spare Raspberry Pi’s, so I’m going to install one alongside my Jellyfin server and flash Home Assistant onto it. Gotta have the dongle to actually connect to anything though. I suppose I could just spin up a container directly on my Jellyfin server, but then I wouldn’t have add-on support.
