![]() Transcoding is for other usecases, and a waste of resources if it is not needed. Just a small input regarding "direct play": I think the goal should be to direct play everything if you are within your local LAN. When I watch live TV that gets transcoded on the fly an on my 8-core system, watching a single 1080p OTA station live ffmpeg uses about 20-30% of the cpu to transcode the stream. This way I can record two shows and then watch something else that usually is being transcoded Again, would change if your able to take advantage of hardware accelerated transcoding. ![]() So I record as mpeg2 and it gets transcoded later while I watch it. Recording straight mpeg2 uses almost no cpu on my system. And this also changes if you are able to take advantage of hardware accelerated transcoding.Īs far as recording tv it depends on whether or not you plan on recording straight mpeg2 or transcoding it while it records to mp4's. But if you need to transcode files regularly I'd say 6 or 8 cores is what you want. Of course with all things computers more cpu/memory is never a bad thing. ![]() When I run a library scan I only see about 10-15% cpu usage on the first 4 of 8 cores on my system. ![]() From what I've seen 4-cores can handle the core Emby service without issue. "mostly an afterthought" to me means an average 4-core cpu. ![]()
