I could just add more vCPUs to the VM but I have a limit on how many vCPUs I have, and there are more efficient ways to transcode video. When I need to transcode video to sync to a mobile device for a trip or transcode H265 to H264 for devices that don’t support H265 the processor consumes a lot of CPU on the VM. I’ve decided to re-rip all of my blu-rays and then transcode them to H265 which will give me a better quality file that takes less space than the same file in H264 takes. Currently Plex is hosted on VMware ESXi 7.0.2 host with two 4 vCPUs and 6GB of vRAM and it works well with H264. I’ve been running Plex in a CentOS 7 VM for over 5 years and it’s been extremely stable, I’ve had no issues, not even one.
