cheap hardware recommendation? (lemmy.world)

hello,

I'm interested in setting up a jellyfin server that will only serve streams to TVs on my LAN. Files will be on an existing NAS. Usage will be low (probably just one stream at a time); cheap and reliable is the name of the game, and cheap includes power consumption. I am thinking of some kind of NUC but don't know enough about jellyfin yet to decide on specs. Any recommendations for a specific NUC model or CPU/GPU? I assume I will be running linux - any distro recommendations?

I have Jellyfin running on a NUC which has mounted a few NFS shares that are hosted on my NAS, haven't had any issues. I just added the nfs mounts to fstab and it works seamlessly.
