Video Description

*If you appreciate these transcode test and would like to support me in the continuation of future test on new hardware then please consider giving me a 'SUPER THANKS.' 🤑 Any amount helps!* In this video I will do a Plex 4K Transcode HDR test on BOTH M4 Mac Mini and M4 Mac Mini PRO from Apple. These videos are made so that you can make an informed decision when determining the parts you need for your Plex media server build. I chose to no longer have a segment in the video discussing the process I use for the transcode tests. This decision was made to make the videos shorter. Please refer to the beginning one of my older videos for that information. Link in description for one of them. These test are done utilizing TWO computers, one is the plex server test bench(M4 Mac Mini) and the other is my Hackintosh for recording the test. Please Like, Comment, Subscribe!
