Is there any critical reason why running UnBalance at the same time as Dockers could cause issues? I'm waiting to move around several TB's of Photography to essentially have "archival" HDD's of older photography I access less often. So I'm not moving any system critical data. So could I potentially still run UnBalance with dockers and VM's on?

@trurl sorry I missed your reply. At any one time I'm wanting to work through a few TB of data, so keeping it all on Cache isn't an option. Generally I've struck a balance where I have what I think I will need the next day, moved to the cache drive overnight and anything I'm done with gets moved back to the array. Mover runs at 11pm every night.

I manually instigate my mover quite often as I'm moving data in and out of the cache for work (I deal with hundreds of thousands of high-res images). However I have it set to run at 1am by default so it normally doesn't interfere with anything. It's just that probably once or twice a week I need to manually instigate it.

Putting my hat in the ring. When the mover runs it locks everything up (not just plex). I'm testing a few things now but mostly just commenting to say "me too" (using Unraid 6.8.3)

Awesome, I just checked the first file it converted for me and sadly wasn't happy with the result, there was a lot of smearing around moving heads and such. The file size did come down considerably, from 8gb or 1gb but the loss in quality for me was a little too much. I'd prefer a 4gb file with much higher quality. I'll wait for an update where we can set the quality!

@Energen did you ever find out the encoding settings Unmanic uses? Your questions/concerns are mine too; what's the output quality? I'm converting the first file so I'm yet to compare the output, it sounds like (from your comments) the quality is very good (hopefully indistinguishable in a blind test?)
