Would it be realistic to use x264 as the codec of choice for Jellyfin for the next few years?

I happened to receive two Quadro K4000 3GB cards, which I've read are capable of handling at least 5x 1080p60 streams. Those old cards can't do anything newer though (not even x265 or VP9). Not sure if I want to use them in a family server for media transcoding or a "retro" gaming rig. 🤔

how about "one of some?" I'd prefer x265. but I would love to have this as _choice_ for everybody so he can decide upon his hardware what he wants to use.
in reply to Rince

I don't know how detailed the settings of Jellyfin are. If it allows me to define available capacities I'd probably offer two x265 streams via CPU encoding + five x264 via one of the K4000. Sounds reasonable enough.
(7 users is a legal limit due to some german law once mentioning in a lawsuit that "7 users can be regarded as sensible number of family and friends you'd share your movie collection with". Ever since then it's the de-facto save number)

you mean H.264? IIRC x264 is a CPU implementation of a H.264 encoder. I'd say yeah, it should be a reasonably safe choice. It's almost ridiculously popular and upgrade cycles are often enough slow to span years to guarantee it some lifetime.

Unless, well, a major breakthrough in video encoding happens in the meantime, but that's always a looming threat I guess.

The Green Party of England and Wales is currently electing a new party leader. The result will be announced on 2nd Sept.
I wonder what press coverage it will get. I voted for Polanski and am hoping he can cut through the endless coverage of Farage.

"Add it all up, and time is not on the data center's side. The finance guru estimates that the "AI datacenters to be built in 2025 will suffer $40 billion of annual depreciation, while generating somewhere between $15 and $20 billion of revenue."

In other words, new data centers have a very tiny runway in which to achieve profits that currently remain way out of reach. By Kupperman's projections, a brand new data center will quickly become a Theseus' ship made up of some of the most expensive technology money can buy. If a new data center doesn't start raking in mountains of cash ASAP, the cost to maintain its aging parts will rapidly overtake the revenue it can bring in.

Given the current rate at which tech companies are spending money without much return — a long-term bet that AI will all but make human labor obsolete — Kupperman estimates that revenue would have to increase ten-fold just to break even. Anything's possible, of course, but it doesn't seem like a hot bet.

"I don’t see how there can ever be any return on investment given the current math," he wrote."
