I’m looking into building my first NAS/Jellyfin server, and one thing I keep wondering about is whether I should try and make it work as a Sunshine server to stream games to my TV via Moonlight.

On my current desktop, I mainly do this for emulated games or former console exclusives. That being said, I’d rather not use my desktop as a server, hence wanting to cram it into a NAS/Jellyfin server. Is this a good idea? Or should I drop it and keep the media server separate?

    I use my Jellyfin server as a Moonlight box for one of my TVs, works fine for me. It’s an Intel-based mini-PC so the hardware decoding for Moonlight takes basically no CPU usage.
