  People generally recommend 8th gen or higher Intel chips for transcoding so I’d look at alternatives. I have a Dell with an 8th gen i5 and that works very well.

  i5-7200U

  That is Kaby Lake and seems to support up to HEVC for decoding which might be enough for you

  For a bit of future proof you might want to check out something Tiger Lake or newer since it seems like they support AV1 decoding in hardware.

    Unfortunately tere doesn’t seem to be a market for used Tiger Lakes yet.

        Best would be below 100€. 200€ would be possible but I’d have to save a bit.
