Plex Installation Notes

Public Port

The LAN port used by Plex (32400) is hardcoded and cannot be changed. Because of this do not change the port in the Plex app config from 32400. If you need to run Plex on a different public port you will need to setup port forwarding on a router from the public port to 32400 on your server IP. You will also need to change the public port in the remote access section of Plex settings.

Transcode Folder

By default the Plex transcode folder is not configured. The recommend setup is emptyDir.

:::danger Memory Requirements

Please be aware of memory requirements if you memory for emptyDir. Plex transcode storage requirement is size of file being transcoded + 100MB per simultaneous stream.

Keep in mind that emptyDir's memory counts against the resources defined.
