Tried to use my fifteen year old intel atom home server for 4K videos with Jellyfin. Probably could have predicted that, but it was veeeery laggy 😄 no way that old of a processor can transcode 4K videos in real time. It is useful for backups though.

Does it have QuickSync support? If it does it might be able to handle a few 4k transcodes.
Alternatively I wonder why the video is needing to be transcoded in the first place, maybe you can get it playing natively.

It was one of the cheapest variants of intel processors, so I highly doubt it has any sort of transcoding support. I have resorted to using my desktop pc for streaming, since it has a much better CPU.

Worth a look, any Intel CPU with onboard graphics that’s not horribly old will have quicksync on its iGPU.
