Also since most my files are X264 I am assuming they will be using the Hardware Acceleration. I would love some input from the ppl using Hardware Acceleration to play back their H264. Plex Media Server is a digital media player as well as an organizational tool, which is available on multi-platforms like Mac, PC, Android, iOS, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, etc.
Anyhow any help would be greatly appreciated. Summary: This article will go over how to rip DVD for Plex with the best DVD ripping software. If I were to buy the card how exactly do I setup cyberlink codecs with mediaportal? How do I ensure my videos gets processed through the right codec that take advantage of the HW accelaeration? I have herd there are several filters(vob sub) that will turn the cyberlink hardware acceleration off. I was also wondering if DXVA was worth it, right now I am using the FFDSHOW filters and codec for my H264 and VC1 movies. I have read a lot of post so far on how to use the cyberlink drivers, but I am clueless. I was thinking of purchasing Nvidia 9600(or should I buy an ATI card?) to take advantage of the DXVA. The lcd on the case is good, and all my WMVs and MKVs play trouble free. I just built this system, everything is working bang on. Are there any settings to achive low cpu usage as i will be putting up 3 such card and want to use IIS smooth streaming because of its variable bit rate feature. Memory: 4GB Vista Performance Platinum DDR2 6400 When i stream with VC1 codec it takes approx 10 to 15 cpu usage for encoder.exe but in case i go in for vc1 iss smooth streaming codec then it takes approx 50 to 60 of cpu usage.
