Pre-transcode video files in various formats

[echekanskiy 1]

Is it possible to pre-transcode video files to avoid transcoding on emby server side?

I want to host emby server on low power router(celeron j1900) and put transcoding tasks on my work pc. So I will create seperate files for 480p, 720p, 1080p, WHATVERp. And how to make emby to use them instead of calling ffmpeg for transcoding?

Thanks, that works. Also I need to disable any transcoding for given user.

My directory looks like this:

E:\MEDIA
└───Interstellar (2014)
        Interstellar (2014) - 480p.mp4
        Interstellar (2014) - 720p.mp4

Also, one notice - dlna shares maximim quality file. Is there way to expose via dlna each quality file just like it presented on web ui?

There's no way to force this right now, but not a bad idea.
