On Export, Left audio is delayed by about half a second, is there a fix?
can you use https://mediaarea.net/MediaInfo and post the text output. maybe there is something malformed in the source that the render engine is unhappy with. as soon as i see sync issues that dont make any sense, i always blame the source media and look to reencode it or somehow repackage it (like with handbrake) into a known and not wierdo format. remember mp4 is just a box. there might be a cat in that box, there might not be a cat at all.

Transcoding h264 source error
Is the problem with absolutely every AVC (h264) video you've tried, or only some? If it works with some and not others, can you share a MediaInfo report on a sample "faulty" file?
-
TV series no sound
Need a little more info. What's the audio codec? Try converting the audio to AAC. Use mediainfo to see what codecs the file have.

How to configure Jellyfin for best experience?

Some HEVC vídeos play normal but other dont.
Some can be encoded with 8bit others with 10bit, the device maybe doesn't play well with 10bit encoded videos. You can use mediainfo to see if was encoded with 8bit or 10bit.

I'm fine with the basics of Plex - now what can I do to really use plex to it's full potential?
With Tautulli you have a better monitoring system than what Plex offers. Streaming history split by user, you can add notifications to a lot of services like Slack, email and so on. You can even create newsletters being sent out to users based on what was added to your server.

My Overkill Home Network – Complete Details 2023
> How hard is this to configure?
Not at all. Just ensure that you have WoL enabled on the host machine and than proceed to send a magic packet. You could even do this with Home Assistant [1] if you are into that. I did this with a script that used tcpdump to monitor for incoming traffic [2] for Plex with an additional (dummy) Plex server on the Pi. I also remember faintly that I had to add 1 library and 1 video file to make this work though.
Powering down - or sleep - is a bit harder. I built a 'Sleep on LAN' app [3] for myself years ago that could power down (or sleep) a system on demand using a REST API. I used this and Tautulli [3] with Home Assistant that would check if there were any active streams and if there wasn't any activity for a specified amount of time I would send a SoL request to my service.
As you can see it isn't super hard or complicated, but a bit cumbersome to find all the moving bits and make it work. But when it does, it's IMHO fantastic.

Can I copy the metadata from one show to another?
In that case then I don't think there will be an easy way to transfer the metadata unfortunately (outside of some user-created script). One option that would at least help with the manual re-entry would be to use Tautulli's export feature or WebTools-NG's ExportTools to create a spreadsheet that has all the information in one place, and should be easier to copy/paste.

Plex GPU transcoding on unRaid
Also, take a look at Tautulli, tautulli.com. Its dashboard has more info than Plex. It shows transcode speed (1.0 = real time) and if subtitles are burning/transcoding/etc.

Best programs to use alongside Plex?
Tautulli for monitoring and notifications, plus some scripts for "maintenance," such as killing 4K transcodes and stopping remote streams after they've been paused for X minutes. These are from the JBOPS repository.

Plex health check
Tautulli. There's a feature where you can trigger notifications from events on your server, not just when it's down. I'm not sure there's a function to get your server to auto restart though.

Why is it transcoding to SDR ?
Looks like Tautulli's mobile companion app.

Import Spreadsheet of Metadata
The data Tautulli exports is great if you want to throw it in Excel to analyze your library, or as a backup of all the content you have on your server, but isn't really meant to be imported at a later date (the exporter guide. You should instead follow the Move an Install to Another System guide to move your server data to a new machine.
