I am having issues with my plex server transcoding files. The logs show my transcode speed bouncing between .7 and 1.0 causing a lot of buffering. My server should be plenty powerful enough for a dozen trancodes at the same time so choking on a single one is frustrating. (I have 4x 2.4 gig hex core processors and 96GB of ram and a SSD) and outside of a background service or 2 plex is the only thing this server does. Any ideas on what could be causing this. The file is a 4.3GB MKV playing onto a roku 3 into a pioneer receiver and everything is hardwired. This issue is not limited to a single file or type but anything needing transcoded. When transcoding my total cpu usage stays well bellow 25% even in the peaks and my ram usage is under 5GB.
