This is something that has been increasingly prevalent with my server, for the longest time I could torrent, have two people watching and everything’s fine, but lately, especially with specific shows, it will take upwards of a minute for a show to start.
I’ve looked into it and the culprit is ffmpeg most of the time, I assume this has something to do with the specific files not having transcoding “baked in” but I don’t know enough to know if that’s the case. Can anyone help me optimize my pipeline at all?
Given they use a N100, I’d suggest redownloading instead of transcoding for time, energy and quality savings (i.e cost).
Downloading from where?
You get the content from blurays typically (you surely aren’t talking about piracy)
