systemctl is most commonly used to stop, start, and restart services, but it can also be utilized to enable a service at boot or check the status of services. It's a tool used to control and inspect systemd, a system service manager, and init system.

If anyone has successfully got hardware-Accelerated Streaming working on a Ubuntu server, let me know! But the bandwidth is a problem outside a local network environment Quite different from the above, the machines is hardly doing anything over its 16 cores. Here is Plex not transcoding inception from 1080p with DTS (Blu-ray sourced) to my Pixel 4

Look at those cores running transcoding tasks. You can see it much clearer in the htop terminal. Here is Plex transcoding inception from 1080p with DTS (Blu-ray sourced) to something suitable for my Pixel 4 (I had to turn off play original, to force it to do the transcoding) just install Ubuntu with Plex media server, install the proprietary Nvidia display drivers and sit back and enjoy? It came with a PCI-Express Nvida Geforce graphics card, so I was thinking everything is set. It came with 12 gig of memory which I was planning to upgrade if things work out. Then over the last few months I got my hands on a secondhand HP Z800 workstation with 4x quad core 2.8 ghz processors (yes 16 cores in total). However I realised its a non-starter as it required a Intel chipset not AMD. About 9 months ago I installed a Nvidia graphics card hoping to take advantage of the new hardware acceleration option. I have been using Plex media server on my AMD six core machine for a while and its good but cooling is a issue.
