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

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.

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 got a beelink from amazon with a 8th gen i5. works great. transcode everything i throw at it.

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

Are you running windows on it or did you change?

nah running ubuntu 22.04 LTS on it. Only way to get tonemapping to work properly is to use unix. Runs like a dream, also have nextcloud running on it and some other person stuff. love that little box.
