It's kind of old. But it should be able to transcode 4-6 1080p HEVC streams. Possibly a few more. No AV1 support. 8th gen Intel and newer is the typical suggestion due to QSV performing better, from what I'm told.
As for direct play streams, you are probably limited by the disk or network performance and not the CPU/GPU.
If your library is 1080P and using H264 or HEVC/H265, 4-6 transcodes is sufficient, and the price is right, you could do far worse than that NUC.
