Hi everyone, I'm planning to experiment with my first home server (jellyfin,nextcloud,bitwarden etc) running on a "old" Thinkcentre i5-7th. I'm thinking using proxmox in order to experiment with different configuration and I was wondering if it's possible to have a single container/vr (with Libreelec) output HDMI to my TV, and keep other VM's headless and controlled from another PC when needed.

Are there some particular setting or nwebie suggestion that could help me achieve that? Also, do you think proxmox is a good choice, or it's better stick to a single debian/ubuntu server OS?

If you are running a hypervisor, running headless would be perfectly ok with a webui or remote utility like virtmanager. I was making the assumption OP was not doing this on a main rig.
