I’m currently using a https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-hc2-home-cloud-two/, which has this cpu: Samsung Exynos5422 Cortex-A15 2Ghz and Cortex-A7 Octa core CPUs.
It is obviously not enough for real time transcoding, which is ok because I do not want it. But getting subtitles out of files and other remuxing tasks are slow as well, I’d like some more power without building a full custom hptc.
Is an intel NUC worth it? Or is there any other significantly faster raspby-clone?
Orange Pi PC (Allwinner H3, 1GB LPDDR3, HEVC support built-in). I was skeptical that the HEVC decoding would actually work with Armbian as it does with OpenELEC but it would seem so. At least I’ve had no problems with it while I previously had severe transcoding delays for x265 videos when running Jellyfin on a RasPi 2.
Just found out ethernet is 10/100, so not good enough for 4k high bitrate content.
Oh, hardware decoding, interesting. I will take a look.
