So I just want to show with windows 10 and forcing Plex and the transcoder to use the igpu ( i3 8100) I am able to get 10 streams (That’s as far as I got before my pc I was using remotely started to freak out) and could go for more with hardware transcoding all 10 of them. To assign an application to a GPU, head to Settings > System > Display. Scroll down and click the “Graphics Settings” link . Select the application you want to configure
hope this helps someone like myself cause I hate Linux and cant stand how you have to mount drives in it. And not trying to knock on Linux by any means just showing that this can be done in windows too you just have to force it or you will only get about 6 ( sometimes less) Transcodes before it just craps out on you.
