Hardware transcoding should improve things. Yes, turn on "enable hardware encoding". You should "allow encoding in HEVC format". I think all the codec boxes should be checked except MPEG2 for your card.
I would also change the Internet max bit rate to half your upload. 10Mbps in your case. Settings > Dashboard > Playback > Streaming tab (at the top center of Playback).
Test this out before your next watch party.
Thank you for your reply!
She's not streaming at 4k resolution, she either does 1080p or 720p.
I am watching at 4k 120 but since I'm doing it directly from my PC where the server is hosted it shouldn't be an issue, right?
Also do i need to change the ffmpeg path? It just says ffmpeg now (installed jellyfin with windows installer)
