Hardware recommendations?

I plan to use Emby inside Open media Vault. Ive done this fairly successfully on a dedicated HTPC but now I'm going to run it on a ESXI server. 2x Xeon 5630's and 18GB ram.

 

Im wondering whats recommended for resource allocation to run the server and do transcoding? I primary use the web client right now so pretty much everything is transcoded.

Well, that'll be the good thing about esxi.....you'll be able to add resources if you think it needs more.  :)

Point,

 

Does transcoding use multiple cores? I'll have 8 cores/16 virtual available.

Yes, depending on your settings in the Server controls.
