    chromecast.xml for chromecast ultra to direct stream 4K HEVC and lower

  • 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.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
