After looking at other's lists I think I am missing a good document server. Emby isn't the best music and photo server so I could look at improving that, but it has been good enough for those purposes that I haven't felt like going to the trouble of installing anything else.

  • Aster: Multiseat software for Windows allows several users to work on the same PC.
  • LaunchBox: Frontend for DOSBox, modern PC games and emulated console platforms.
  • Blue Iris: Video security and webcam software
  • Calibre: E-Book management and server
  • Emby: Server for videos, music, audio books, and photos.
  • Firewalla: VPN server, internet monitor and control
  • Foundary Virtual Tabletop: Online role-playing game server.
  • Grafana: Dashboard interface
  • Hubitat: Home automation
  • Hyper-V Manager: Tool that allows users to manage Hyper-V hosts and virtual machines (VMs)
  • InfluxDB: Real-time database server.
  • IotaWatt: Open WiFi electric power monitor
  • Microsoft SQL Server: Database Server
  • Octoprint: Web interface for 3D printers.
  • PCem: Emulator for various old 8086 through Pentium PCs.
  • SmartSync Pro: File sync program
  • SnapRaid: Backup program for disk arrays.
  • Stablebit DrivePool/Scanner: Disk pooling, file duplication, protection, disk surface scanner, and disk health monitoring

Highly recommend ditching emby for jellyfin!!

I bought both Plex and Emby. I started with Plex but had some technical issues related to my machine having multiple IP addresses so I switched to Emby. I tried Jellyfin before switching to Emby but it wasn't as capable as Plex or Emby (at least at the time) and I wanted something with some commercial support behind it. I have been pretty satisfied with Emby, but do wish it would get requested features added in a much more timely manner.
