AFFASocial 6 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) OK for starters I have been using using Mediabrowser/Emby for years and since I run Servers with Laragon, Email Server, Do Email Marketing, Have Private Search for my servers, FTP server, use Internet Email Extractors, Recompile Movies to smaller format. Well as you can imagine its becomes quite a load on my system (SYSTEM) = Now wile running Anyvideo Converter with my 5 hosted servers running and FTP and email server and search engine 24/7 Example pic below normally uses all 4 cores maxed out at 100% makes doing things very slow not to mention I can not watch movies without it lagging since its maxed out. What i have done is installed System Explorer = and set the process priority to idle and set as permanent and them set the Process Infinity to use the core(s) i dedicate to the app and set it to permanent like in Anyvideo Converter now only uses core. Example(s) Below No the last APPLICATION I installed for memory Management is Ram Saver Pro THIS worlks Flawless out of all the ones I have tested example below After installation I used default setting and went to Advanced settings and set it to free memory every 1 minute example pic below Now i HAVE SHARED THESE TIPS so you have a understanding that with System Explorer and Ram Saver pro you can do ALL your task and still watch movies flawlessly even wile compiling or converting your movies or scraping the web for email campaigns. I am a OG hacker from napster days and ~The Forum~ and Defcon, I work at home and spend most of my time on the computer marketing for my wife's Real Estate Business and do all phases of computer and software repair locally. I wrote this tut mainly for the purpose of showing HOW to MAKE Emby flawless even on a full load of system activity ENJOY! from AFFA/PCMAN PS I wrote this tutorial wile running all my servers soft 1,laragon 5 domains=like wamp 2.email server 3.Emby Playing a movie, 4. ftp server Converting 5 Movies in background with Any Video Cnnverter 6.

chef 3745 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Interesting. I know emby stores a bunch of information in RAM. By clearing the RAM every minute do you notice any Libraray navigational lags? How does the System Explorer do with FFMPEG. I have noticed in the past when I change affinity to high on ffmpeg my computer doesn't like it much.

AFFASocial 6 Posted July 26, 2016 Author Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) none at all only on a heavy load and i changed ffmpeg.exe to only use core 2 and 3 now when im not running emails scrapes or compyling movies to a smaller format it runs 100% un noticed Edited July 26, 2016 by cnjnorton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFFASocial 6 Posted July 26, 2016 Author Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) FYI I stress everything to a crawl to determine how to best use it,,, also another issue for emby if someone is watching a movies and say they pause it for a hour the whole time ffmpeg.exe is running as 25% so maybe emby can see if they can code it so if paused say more than 3 minutes to release the pause media/ffmpeh.exe so is can save your system from being bogged if 4 people pause at the same time ..

AFFASocial 6 Posted July 26, 2016 Author Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) and remember in one of my other post i replaced the 64bit ffmpeg play and probe to 32bit in the post about ffmpeg memory issue's and the size difference in the files are original = about 45mb and the replacements =only about 400k each I believe Luke replied and say they use the ffmpeg's from the same site i recommended even tho the compiled files do not match ...

AFFASocial 6 Posted July 26, 2016 Author Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) only lags on heavy heavy load and i moved the cache folder to another drive that runs compressed at all times it seemd to help as well. when i make changes i test everything on my mobile only using 4g at even on a load it play almost flowless or as close to perfect,,,,,, if you just run the movie server and some host soft it will never lag except when loading,,, even runs smooth when its scanning all media Edited July 26, 2016 by cnjnorton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFFASocial 6 Posted July 26, 2016 Author Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) Not to seem to challengs your statement Luke Emby ffmpeg is quite larger than 400k as are the other .exe and in no way am i questioning EMBY its a reference as to what im actually seeing from files to file sizes to consumption. SO respect to emby as far as its concerned.... and yes I support Emby developers, their is alsways that old WHAT IF IT CAN BE BETTER as it always can be better Edited July 26, 2016 by cnjnorton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37046 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 yes there are static builds and linked builds that will have very different file sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chef 3745 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) You mentioned that ffmpeg hangs at 25% while a movie is paused. I wonder if maybe you have transcode throttling enabled. Or a setting enabled which might make ffmpeg act that way. Just for comparisons sake, When I transcode a movie, ffmpeg will stop after the transcode is finished, even if the movie is paused, the transcode will continue to the end. It will of coarse stop transcoding if I stop playback of the film. The fact that you are able to push your i3 like that is very reassuring. I put an i3 in my server and wasn't sure if I should upgrade. Although upgrades are good, it is good to know that it might not need to happen right away. Good stuff!
