I have a Plex server running on Mac OSX. Whenever I want to add media, I remotely connect into the Mac, login to my private tracker, download the torrent, wait for it to finish, then update my Plex library.
I’m hopeful that there’s an easier way. I’m imagining a way I can remotely tell the Plex server what I want to watch and it takes it from there. Does such a thing exist?
You can already disable transcoding, and it doesn’t transcode at all anyway if your device can handle the format. The person you responded to is just an idiot.
I know I was having issues trying to transcode media the server wasn’t able to transcode. I didn’t know it wouldn’t transcode period if device could handle it. I feel like I was always transcoding no matter what but maybe not the case. I certainly would not consider myself an authority on the inner workings of Jellyfin
