MediaInfoLib
Convenient unified display of the most relevant technical and tag data for video and audio files.
There are several ways to check what codecs/formats your media is using. You can use Get Info within Plex, an external program like MediaInfo, or look at the 'Now Playing' section of the dashboard when something's playing, which will also tell you whether the video/audio/subtitles are playing directly or transcoding.
