goblygoop 0 Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 I have a DS414, but a PC that has plenty of power for transcoding. Could i run the server on the DS414, but have the PC do the transcoding? I'd like the emby server to run on the ds414.
Luke 42077 Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 no, you can't do that. why not just run it on the pc then?
goblygoop 0 Posted November 4, 2015 Author Posted November 4, 2015 My syno is my storage for all of the media kodi accesses. I like having my PC being "low priority" service to my clients.It helps meet the WAF by limiting the potential failure points. Emby without transcoding gives me some great advantages like centralized DB and the web interface, plus the emby clients. The transcoding is icing on the cake..but a very tasty, delicious, cream cheesy icing. The hope is that if the transcoding (the PC) is unavailable, it just won't transcode, but the emby service will still work without a problem for the kodi clients.
