Why kind of quality did you get running plex? I doubt a cluster of pi’s could keep up with the transcoding.

Very poorly. The cooling is a big problem as well.

Now I switched to x86, I’m even sharing my Plex library with a few more people (looking at the Tautulli stats, it’s been transcoding a lot) without any problems.

If it becomes an issue, I’d add a GPU but for now a 6 core AMD is doing a very good job.
