I'm currently using a https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-hc2-home-cloud-two/, which has this cpu: Samsung Exynos5422 Cortex-A15 2Ghz and Cortex-A7 Octa core CPUs.

It is obviously not enough for real time transcoding, which is ok because I do not want it. But getting subtitles out of files and other remuxing tasks are slow as well, I'd like some more power without building a full custom hptc.

Is an intel NUC worth it? Or is there any other significantly faster raspby-clone?

I'm using an old refurbished dell thin client that I got for 30 bucks on eBay. Works really well. Can recommend

Same, it's a great machine and I've had no issues so far. It can even transcode 4K without breaking a sweat

Lenovo Tiny m920q desktop box I believe. It's been pretty great with everything I've thrown at it, and quick-sync has been working as far as I can tell, though I'm streaming to my workstation 95% of the time so I rarely have to transcode.

I run jellyfin (along with about 20 other self hosted services) on a fitlet2

Wow that's actually pretty reasonably priced too. Thanks for the link!

I just wish there was an integrated box like this with 10g links instead. Would make a pretty nice router box IMO

Same but if the Quality of the Media is too Big it doesn't follow.

Orange Pi PC (Allwinner H3, 1GB LPDDR3, HEVC support built-in). I was skeptical that the HEVC decoding would actually work with Armbian as it does with OpenELEC but it would seem so. At least I've had no problems with it while I previously had severe transcoding delays for x265 videos when running Jellyfin on a RasPi 2.
