I'm with TDP.
OS --> Ubuntu 22+ w/ Kernel to match up with your hardware/software preference (HWE kernel or bump up to 23+ if you're adventurous).
CPU --> Intel though I'd say if you can wait and/or spend the dough, you can get encode/decode AV1 support with Meteor Lake unless you plan on getting something like an Arc A3X0.
You can also get a really low-power processor that can knock the socks off most competitors as far as transcoding performance goes (if that's a concern). I think it's 11th gen and higher that support LPE modes, but it gets simpler with 12th gen (no fumbling with extra firmware configuration).
