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.

That's good to know. Other than enabling hardware acceleration and setting the transcoding quality, what else can I try tweaking in Plex?
I think you can check logs, but iirc you need x11 running for it to all work.
Also install vainfo and see what it says.
Iirc arch has a page with information on vaapi which might include details on how you enable plex.
I edited the post to mention that this is Windows 10, but I'm not at all against installing Arch instead if it improves performance.

Take a look, at the bottom there's a way of seeing if it's used.
You should be golden, you should be able to handle it trivially, especially with your chipset.
Oh wtf, hmm, I don't know, let me check online, never tried on windows.
