Hi guys, i'm testing the jellyfin server.
I've facing the transcoding is stuggling my server with hard disk space, I'm ussing an old pc with 8gb Ram, 4 cores and 250 GB of hard drive space and ubuntu 18.04 installed.
I don't understand why the server try to transcode every single file does not matter the container(mkv or mp4).
For example, I have about 50 files for movies and each file is about 1.5Gb, all files are h264 and aac2, when I try to play into roku or android device I need to transcode all... now the problem is when we are 10-15 users online the hard drive fills very fast with transcoded files and the cores and memory most part of the time are on 70-80%... the question is:
Why we can't do a directplay since we are in the same network and the same location, the server can't be access outside since I got port clossed on the modem.
This is the same situation we faced on emby, every single file or link we try to play server start to transcoding and server start to fail since the the hard drive got full and the memory/cpu to.
What is the porpouse of offer a home-kind solution with professional needs requires?
What is the ideal use of this? 3, 4, 5 users?
If you tell me that for 15 users I need a big server I think the cost-benefict is very high
