Tdarr VS HandBrake

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

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

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 .

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.

Have a look at Tdarr for distributed transcoding. I have it on a few nodes and it’s been pretty easy on the network.

I have created a feature request in the Tdarr GitHub page; https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr/issues/772

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

or this: https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr

https://handbrake.fr/ its very easy to use.

nothing actually, i just mentioned it as an encoding frontend.

At this point, use https://handbrake.fr/ to transcode into a higher res MP4 and use as proxy footage,

Maybe you could try HandBrake.

The release itself[0] would have been a better link.
