  Guys, i need help... my jellyfin server is buffering a lot because its transcoding... any idea of how to direct play it?

  As I had mentioned earlier, go to their client downloads page and only use their official clients to play. When you play using th browser or anything else, it will transcode, as a normal mostly.

  did that and still transcodes...

  What OS are you trying this on and what client did you use?

  I'm trying on Windows and I'm using their app

  thats the "official" jelly fin media player right? https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-media-player

  this guy here?

  I updated my server to 4vcs... Let's see if it will work

  What's 4vcs? Is it virtual cores? If yes, that won't automatically disable transcoding but would only help handling the transcoding load very minimally.

  Yeah... It's impossible to disable it seems so...

  Try another video format and see if it still transcodes.

  I'm using H264... It should be supported, right? .mkv video

  Mkv is almost 50/50 for me. I'd recommend H264 MP4. Try a sample video and see if it transcodes as well.

  will try that, thank you!
  Sad thing is that you can't find a lot of torrents (specially in private trackers) with mp4 format

  Try any sample MP4 video to test.

  Theres some youtube to mp4 converters too out there that are easy to use. Might want to try that as a quick n dirty test

  He could also just use yt-dl to get them

  ah thats a cool one! I usually just use websites to dl but that makes it much easier!

  The hard part would be finding someone wanting to trade out of rack nerd credits! Would have to be taking a loss on the hostdar side to do that. Everyone wants some racknerd!

  I tried Plex but I can't install it properly =(

  But if you want to take full advantage of Plex, their premium subscription is recommended..I guess they still sell lifetime license.
