Plex now gates remote playback behind Plex Pass / Remote Watch Pass and valhalla has no Plex Pass, so remote viewers are being pushed to pay for access to a server they don't own. Design covers a new stacks/streaming Portainer stack (jellyfin, jellystat + postgres, wizarr, jellyplex-watched), a storage layout that keeps bulk data off the 97%-full root disk, and eight phases with Plex left running and untouched through Phase 6. Findings that shaped it, measured rather than assumed: - root disk is at 97% (5.7G free) and /config lives on it — Phase 0 - Tesla P100 is GP100: no NVENC, decode only, so transcoding is CPU-bound - 48% of streams transcode, peak 7 concurrent, but 1080p SDR with no subtitle burn-in and no HDR tone-mapping, which 52 threads can carry - /var/lib/plex is a symlink to /storage1/labdata/plex holding 383G; the 15G Metadata dir is reusable via Plexyfin, the 365G of BIF preview thumbnails is not (format-incompatible with Jellyfin trickplay) - jellyfin-plugin-sso is browser-only, so Roku/Fire TV/tvOS cannot use it — native Jellyfin accounts, a deliberate exception to the auth standard Also notes that CLAUDE.md documents a Plex data path that does not exist.
