New to channels DVR - got tired of the poor DVR capabilities of PLEX and the abominable interface of HD Home Run DVR
I noticed that there is no love here for the QNAP series of Intel powered NAS Devices
Running Channels DVR on a QNAP TS451 4 bay Nas that is running powered by Celeron J1900 Chip - Intel quick sync enabled for hardware transcoding
works great with both Plex and Channels DVR - I've found that Channels DVR has less than half of the CPU utilization for the same tasks that Plex will require on my NAS.
Qnap offers intel powered Nas's that are typically less expensive than a similarly powered Synology box
I think that the lower tier of Intel chips work great for the majority of users - If you need multiple transcoded streams or are servicing multiple TV's with DVR, then I recommend going with a Intel PC with a least a I3 or an I5 processor
