Hello,
I've been watching and reading a lot of the contemt you guys have put out. Thank you very much for your work!
I'm close to purchasing my first NAS and I'm in the same situation as many other people: wondering if I should buy a Synology DS920+ or wait for the DS923+.
I've watched the videos and read the articles you've published about this and I have some questions.
If the DS923 indeed comes out with the Ryzen CPUs which don't have hardware transcoding. what is that going to prevent me from doing, compared to the DS920+?
Is transcoding only relevant if I want to watch media outside of the house (where I have the NAS)?
Can't the transcoding be done purely by software? Doesn't the Plex server do this, for example?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Luis
