Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

something is definitely wrong with the config if its failing at a single 1080p, I did a plex server test on an intel n95 nuc (one of the lowest end cpus in their current range) and it blasted through multiple 4k HDR transcodes simultaneously.
I agree something isn't right, I have Plex on an HP Chromebook G2 with a Celeron 3865U, it's a 1.8ghz dual core without HT, and I had it doing like 15-20 1080p streams during testing. Quick sync is amazing.
Does the n95 handle 4k to 4k Plex transcodes well? Or are you talking about 4k to 1080p?
It's fine, it can do a few at once. I didn't do a lot of testing since I never have to transcode these days anyway.
Okay then there's no reason why a hyperthreaded hexacore i7-10710U should struggle unless, like you said, there's a misconfiguration. That makes me feel better because I'm hemorrhaging cash at the moment.
That's encouraging. In Plex, what did you configure other than to set the transcoding quality and enable acceleration?
your problem might be windows.
I think everyone here might be nerd enough to be assuming everyone is running Linux.
And it's fine if that's the case. It's not like I actually needed another reason to finally start ditching Windows for good but this might just be the straw that broke the camel's back. I'm just a lazy Windows sysadmin who uses what he knows, but not if it doesn't make sense for the application.
