Think you mean Trump in the second paragraph

Pretty sure they meant reverse dns :)

Depends on what your priorities are. If you have a spare box you could use as a temporary plex server, get that configured with docker etc. First, because you won't cause a service disruption by taking down the main server (your pc).

After you get it configured the way you like, move over to Linux on your main and migrate the docker Configs. If you dont have a second machine or don't care about a plex outage (my wife and kids would throw a fit lol), move over to Linux and then setup the dockers.

Some folks think it's a crutch, but I recommend getting portainer for docker setup (simple one-liner deploy after docker is installed) and from the portainer webui deploying everything else. It's a bit easier if you are new with docker.

Make sure you follow the os specific directions to install docker and docker-compose. Don't bother with docker desktop, just docker engine (docker-ce)

Whatever you do, make sure you setup the services in docker or similar so moving stuff around is much easier in the future.

If you're not super familiar with docker/linux and have adequate system resources, I would stand up a vm for the stack and then use something like saltbox to deploy. It's built primarily for remote hosting with cloud storage but there's guides for local storage and the discord channel is great.

This Github is for detecting sound playing and sending it to Shazam. Perhaps you can use the features to capture audio and find another example of audio comparison for the other half?

I also had issues trying to successfully set up vnc, specifically trying to connect from a Windows pc to the Linux box.

I would recommend trying rustdesk instead if it has the features you are looking for.
