hknerdr 0 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Hi I am planning to get a VPS or dedicated on hetzner or contabo to install emby and share with my friends about 25 or more people. Will VPS be enough or should i get a dedicated? Which specs should i look for? Ram, CPU or what should be the minimum specs? For ex for now, i have a 30GB interstellar movie with H265 HEVC codec, on Apple TV Emby player with 100mbit connection it is not playing flawlessly. What is the reason do you think?

Luke 37010 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 If it's a remote connection you may want to try lowering the in-app quality setting to force it to transcode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8242 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 H265 HEVC codec, if transcoding is required you may have to control the bitrate as the video bitrate is doubled when converted to H264 to maintain quality. So you may need to apply limits to quality when this happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
