PLEX - stop transcoding for 6CH HEVC H265 video 1080p
Hi there
Using Plex for 1080p with 6Ch and codec HEVC H265 transcoding always seems to take place and video pauses frequently even on megafast Network connection.
If I drop the audio to 2CH then it works fine seems PLEX has problem with the AUDIO rather than the video codec --strange though.
It all works at 720p whatever audio but I do prefer the full 1080p on decent TV's.
Is there any way to either "Pre-transcode in advance" or fix the audio problem -- 2Ch is OK but full 6 Ch is great for some movies.
Using HEVC H265 saves HUGE amounts of disk space at 1080p and will be even better for 4K UHD TV too.
Cheers
