bonestaak Posted September 9, 2021 Share #1 Posted September 9, 2021 On this moment I got a DS 920+ I have mainly Plex pass and HomeAssistant too bad Plex is not working very well, too much waiting time. I need a faster system I have tried it in past with c5005. Very low power but not enough power for Plex. Some people say use Ryzen 3600 but there is no Syno with an AMD. Anyone have some idea?

premikkoci Posted September 9, 2021 Share #2 Posted September 9, 2021 DS920+ is great option for Plex. It's capable of many 1080p transcoded streams and 2 4K HDR transcoded streams. Even HDR tone mapping works if you use linuxserver.io docker package for PMS. Btw you really want to avoid transcoding anyway except for remote streaming if you have terrible upload. All you need is to avoid burning in subtitles. Use text based subtitles (.srt) and avoid the image based ones (PGS, VOBSUB). Keep in mind that LG TVs force burning in any subtitles if transcoding is needed. You would need the fastest CPU for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
