6 Docker containers I use to stream media files at home
These Docker containers help me manage and organize my personal multimedia collection easily on home lab server.
Managing multiple accounts and subscriptions did not guarantee the availability of my favorite show, book, or song. So, I took the self-hosting route to build a bank of my favorite multimedia content. That's why I trusted Docker to ease the task of deploying and configuring various media apps. Using separate Docker containers, I can stream movies, shows, songs, podcasts, ebooks, and digital comics from a single machine at home. When away, I use Tailscale to remotely access and enjoy my humble library from anywhere remotely, and it even works on mobile data. Here are the dedicated Docker containers I use to stream multimedia files from my home lab server.
