CPU Spiking (Plex Related I think)

Featured Replies

I asked this question on the Plex docker topic but I am still not 100% sure whats up,

 

My Unraid setup is

G4560

16GB Ram

Gigabyte Z270N-WIFI

 

Playback is a Nvidia Shield

 

Whenever playing back through Plex, I find the CPU constantly bounced up to 100% and back down again, while I don't think its doing any damage per say,I can hear the noctua fan constantly spinning up and slowing down as it adjusts to the temp.

It's spiking alot though.

 

On the playback, I have options to transcode or play original, but I don't have plex pass. I am not sure if this is a feature of the Nvidia Shield or I'm miss understanding the differences between transcoding over local ethernet.

 

Also when playing back some formats I get artifacting on the files, both in Plex and Kodi, but when I play them back on PC or the PC app, they play fine.

 

Attached is my diagnostic files, incase I have done anything dumb with the set up, or something obvious why it could be spiking. Not sure if any other logs that can help.
