Just started homelabbing in an old Raspberry Pi 3B+
You could also use tdarr to automate transcoding as soon as stuff enters your library so that it’s direct playable when you decide to watch it, but I’ve never needed to try it
- Run Tdarr in background without command prompt console like Radarr, Sonarr, etc

Error on Windows with Tdarr v2.00.21 and ExifTool
The only place I can find mention of the script is Tdarr_Server is not closing exiftool.exe after use. #423 and tdarr_server.exe crashes often #412

11600k - Only able to transcode 1 file at a time at 60FPS. Is this normal?
I've had issues with my 11600k and now 11400 in unraid too. Though it's CPU encoding in my case. See https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr/issues/777 .

Setting up Tdarr for multiple nodes with different encoding hardware
So I read through this issue and I have a couple nodes setup, some with QSV and others with NVENC. The respective node capabilities are designated for exactly one of QSV or NVENC.

Questions about fibre channel, why is it so cheap? Can I setup Ethernet over fibre channel?
Have a look at Tdarr for distributed transcoding. I have it on a few nodes and it’s been pretty easy on the network.

It’s not logging successful transcodes :-(
I have created a feature request in the Tdarr GitHub page; https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr/issues/772

Hardware acceleration on old laptop CPU?
You can also use tdarr if you have more than 1 file it can auto transcodes multiple files in a directory all at once. https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr
