Finally got Emby server running on Pine64

After a long struggle learning to use Ubuntu and the Pine's quirks, I finally got Ember server running fairly decent on my Pine64, 2 gig board.  Took me a long time to figure out how to mount folders from my Synology NAS using NFS to my Ubuntu.  Still have not figured out how to mount folders from my WDMyCloud NAS, but still banging my head against the wall.  Most of the help I get here, is way over my head, hahaha, especially when I get talked down to.

Here is my video showing how Emby server is running on my Pine board and using my new Xiaomi Mi Box as my client.

Had to correct the link, that was not working.

The Question is "Does is do Transencoding"? I managed to get Emby installed and setup a long while ago, but it was not powerful enough to be a server as the minute a video file was in the wrong format, it could not convert and stream fast enough.

You are absolutely correct, it does NOT have enough power to transcode.   I have been testing Emby server running  on another board based on the Amlogic S905, running Ubuntu 16.04 and it does NOT have enough power to transcode either.
