I don't know if Plex supports this feature but I'm running Jellyfin on a RPi 4B and Jellyfin support live transcoding for video formats that are not natively supported by the streaming client. Although RPi 4B supports hardware encoding of h264 1080p30, it performs badly.
So if you're using live transcoding maybe opt for hardware with more oomph.
I’m just torrenting media that’s hard to get, namely now that I’m cutting subscriptions more and more, nothing terribly special. I honestly don’t even know what I’d need live transcoding for lol.
Generally for bigger transcoding jobs you need a legit graphics card however just modern CPUs with internal graphics can do a lot even if they are a bit slower.
