Hello all, I recently setup jellyfin on my RPi 4 with an external HDD attached and after a few tests I decided to move on. On ebay I found a refurbished Fujitsu Mini PC with a Pentium G4560. It is way cheaper than the Lenovo ThinkCentre M720q (with a G5400T) which I saw being recommended a lot.

My question is:

how does the higher TDP of the former 54 W with a base frequency of 3.50 GHz compare to the latter with a TDP of 35 W for 3.10 GHz in a real world scenario running jellyfin?

For now I will continue using my external HDD because the prices for new drives is too high for me.

Alright so I checked the docs but I'm not fluent with video codecs. For av1 you need basically a new integrated gpu, right? But for x265 (is that the same as H.265 in the docs?) a kaby lake should be fine if I read that correctly.

So maybe a i5-7200U should be capable enough?

Edit: And to answer your question about the RPi: it seemed to me that I had to reduce the quality to watch a film without stuttering and in the future I might want to stream on a projector so I want the highest possible resolution.
