If on macOS any specific configuration to make it act like a server? Any guides?Īny downside on using the Mac mini? Any limitations? I’ve seen some posts on it not handling some codecs well?

If it’s on Mac OS, how do you manage the server, can you ssh into it or is it more like a Remote Desktop session and manage the server via the Mac OS gui? So I figured why not use it to replace the NUC plex server.ĭo you guys who use an m1 run plex on Mac OS or do you install Linux or something on the mac? Long story short, the Mac has been standing there on my desk looking pretty for a long time without being used. I have a Mac Mini M1 laying around which I bought when they were initially released to give Mac OS a try as daily workstation.īut after +20 years of windows it didn’t really work for me. So far it has been fine, but i’m bumping into issues due to to more 4k content which then gets transcoded and the nuc cannot handle it. Hi guys, I see a lot of posts about people really impressed by the transcoding power of the M1.Ĭurrently I use an Intel NUC Core I5-7260U from 2017 on which I have plex server running on Linux.
