But how do you encrypt remote streams? That's the issue with JF, outside the home there's no streaming encryption, so what's to stop you from DMCA notices? For some family, were running a Wireguard VPN through Ubiquiti but nobody else can with ease. At least not that I'm aware of.
Nobody is going to deep inspect your home packets.
There's a big difference between running a piracy home server between you and your friends and downloading torrents where you announce to everybody that you have that particular file.
Best solution is probably what those commercial pirates do -buy a bunch of cheap android boxes and pre-configure with your choice of client and VPN, then hand those out. Something goes wrong, they bring it back.
That's... Actually not a bad idea 🤔
Just use a reverse proxy. Everything goes over https.
I don’t know why you have trouble with this. Everything runs through the same SSL protected connection. Router -> Nginx Proxy Manager w/ TLS -> Jellyfin.
You all afraid like the feds are monitoring your home network between each other...
Yeah, if that was the cause they would have bigger problems to think about.
