Unable to share my screen in MS Teams running inside Citrix. It only shows the Window sharing option (no full-screen option), and when I select a window, sharing immediately stops.

Screen sharing works fine on Teams web, so this seems specific to the Citrix app.

Support teams from my company is helpless, they've tried multiple resolutions, nothing worked.

Anyone faced this or know a fix? Is this some kind of configuration issue ?

Hi everyone,

I'm planning to build my first homelab, mainly for running services like Jellyfin, the *arr stack, Immich, AdGuard Home, Bitwarden, and possibly a few Docker containers/VMs in the future.

I'm currently exploring Mini PCs (Lenovo Tiny, Dell OptiPlex Micro, HP EliteDesk Mini, etc.) and would like to know:

- Which websites are trustworthy for refurbished Mini PCs in India?

- Any sellers you've personally purchased from and would recommend?

- Are there any websites to avoid?

- Is it better to buy refurbished enterprise mini PCs or newer N100/N150 systems for a beginner homelab?

My budget is around ₹15k–₹20k, and power efficiency is important since the server will run 24/7.

Would appreciate any recommendations and experiences from fellow homelabbers. Thanks!

Hey everyone,

Planning to install a dashcam in my car and looking for suggestions within a budget of around ₹12,000 (including installation if possible).

Looking for:

Also looking for trusted places in Kochi where I can:

- Buy genuine products

- Get clean hardwiring/installation done

- Avoid messy cable management 😅

Would love to know:

- Which model you’re using

- Approx total cost

- Where you got it installed

- How your experience has been so far

Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to buy a refurbished mini PC in Kochi for personal projects/homelab/general use. Mainly looking for brands like Dell OptiPlex Micro, HP EliteDesk Mini, Lenovo Thinkcentre, etc.

Does anyone know reliable shops or sellers in Kochi that deal with refurbished mini PCs at reasonable prices? Online recommendations are also welcome if they deliver to Kerala and are trustworthy.

Would also love to know:

Typical price range

Things to check before buying

Whether local stores give warranty/support

Thanks in advance 🙂

I'm from India and planning to build a low-power home server mainly for:

- Jellyfin (hardware transcoding preferred)

- Immich (photo backup + AI features)

- Maybe Docker containers

Requirements:

- Budget around ₹15k–20k for the mini PC

- Low power consumption (24/7 usage)

- Quiet operation

- Small form factor

- Good Linux/Proxmox compatibility

- Prefer Intel Quick Sync for HEVC transcoding

- Mostly 1–3 users

- May expand later with external HDD/NAS storage

Currently looking at refurbished mini PCs like:

- Dell OptiPlex 3060/3070 Micro

- Dell 7070 Micro

- Lenovo ThinkCentre M720q Tiny

- HP EliteDesk 800 G3 Mini

Questions:

1. Which model gives the best value right now in India?

2. Is 8th gen enough or should I aim for 9th/10th gen?

3. Is there any real advantage of Dell 70 series over 30 series for my use case?

4. How well does Intel Quick Sync handle HEVC/H.265 on these systems?

5. Any recommended sellers/websites for refurbished systems in India?

Would love to hear your real-world experiences and power consumption numbers too.

Thanks!
