Need a VPN?

Need a good Plex, Emby or jellyfin client that can handle native h265?

Nvidia Shield TV Pro (best)

Nvidia Shield TV (good)

Torguard is also an excellent VPN again with both openvpn and wireguard protocls supported.

Great video!! Very excited about the external storage vid to come. Didn’t even realize that was a feature/possibility with nextcloud

[Rysho]

Great video as usual. Made setting up simple. Really looking forward to the external storage video!

Just saw another video about Cloudflare Tunnels, would be great to get a part 3 on how to use that instead of opening up ports on the firewall. Thanks for the great video!

For people that still see additional warnings, I added the four lines after the line he added in the conf file

add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN" always;
add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff" always;
add_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block" always;
add_header Referrer-Policy "no-referrer" always;

Just in time for me to slack off at work during a holiday week. Thanks SiO!!!

[blackcube]

I'm really looking forward to the next video! Great work👍🏻

Thanks for the great videos, they have been a huge help in getting me up and running with my Unraid Server.
Have a good chrismas and new year kind sir.

[comegetyou]

Always great stuff. You’re the best doing it.

Thanks a lot for all your videos. I discovered your videos earlier last year when trying to set up unraid for first time - it has been a relatively painless journey thanks to all your videos. Can I request you to create a tutorial on setting up wireguard VPN (if you hvent already got one) and some of the challenges we will run into, while trying to access LAN(Static routing etc). Also complications that come up if using Pi-hole and the best way to resolve them etc. Thanks again for the very informative videos

[BerkeleyTowers]

Excellent, thanks can't wait for the next and external I've tried and failed I think I'm close, but I'm missing an essential step

[NickPapandria]

For the next video, can you add in information about upgrading the max file size? It's something I see quite often!

[Zeze]

Absolutely fantastic video as always. I have two questions for Ed (and all the others out there): Has anyone face recognition gotten to work properly? This would I think help sort (autotag) my pictures.
Second: Ed you said in the review video of th elast rc version of unraid you were going to do a video about working and gaming vms. I would love those (especially vms with multi monitor support) Thank you so much!

[joelang]

Might be worth adding tips to speed up NC Ed as it's pretty slow. Php worker limit increase, RAM limits, document previews etc.

[Mushleman]

Thanks for the video. do you have a fix for this security error
Your web server is not properly set up to resolve "/.well-known/webfinger". Further information can be found in the documentation ↗.

[ceefka]

Thank you so much for your videos on this. Do you have any reccomendations how to configure file size limitations on upload? I keep having problems with it even if there is a lot of information on this out there. Same as reassembling chunks of data from bigger uploads gives me errors. Would be very happy if you know a good source for reading etc.

I saw someone else post this below, but adding this here to help others needing more visibility. Here are the commands mentioned in the video:

add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=15552000; includeSubDomains; preload;";
'default_phone_region' => 'US'

[bigbin]

Thank you! I followed your previous videos to setup and everything works absolutely fine, I do have one question, large file sync/upload seems to have issue, file size seems to be 1gb but 750mb files also fails, my server have 16gb ram and I use swag/nextcloud combo. How do I increase this limit?

[swoopedify]

Not sure if there is a more elegant fix but the first thing my wife mentioned was that the video files on nextcloud do not show thumbnails. I was able to fix this by editing the config.php 'enable_previews' => true,
'preview_max_x' => 1000,
'preview_max_y' => 1000,
'enabledPreviewProviders' => [
'OC\Preview\TXT',
'OC\Preview\MarkDown',
'OC\Preview\PDF',
'OC\Preview\MSOfficeDoc',
'OC\Preview\JPEG',
'OC\Preview\PNG',
'OC\Preview\GIF',
'OC\Preview\BMP',
'OC\Preview\XBitmap',
'OC\Preview\MP3',
'OC\Preview\HEIC',
'OC\Preview\Movie',
'OC\Preview\MKV',
'OC\Preview\MP4',
'OC\Preview\AVI',
],

Thanks for all the awesome UNRAID tutorials. Would never have been able to get everything setup without these. Can you please do a video on how to backup Nextcloud and all its data plus do a restore with it? There wasn't much information I could find on the Web especially related to Nextcloud on Unraid. So far I have the appdata folder and the Nextcloud share backed up with Duplicacy. Not sure if this is all I need to restore Nextcloud due to the database and indexing etc.

Hi Ed, first thanks for all videos you make's it's very helpful, second i had problem with NC it was very slow until i changed the appdata path from "/mnt/user..." to "/mnt/cache..." that's made NC faster, but I still have this problem with sync larg files it's too slow and sometimes it's kill my home network and I need to reboot the router!! if you can help me with that I'll be thankful.
