I am thinking about getting a lower end NUC or Beelink device to put Ubuntu Server and Channels onto. I will only have Channels DVR on this device and I guess I will have a powered usb drive attached.
After reading the forums and seeing that it is more than capable of watching content on my local network without issue, my biggest question is how much of a drop will I see regarding the commercial cutting aspect?
I am currently running Ubuntu Server on a PC with AMD Ryzen 5 2600 and Nvidia GTX 1060 gpu for the purpose of transcoding.
It will currently cut the commercials for a 30 minute show in about 32 seconds and an hour long show in about 2-3 minutes.
This setup seems like a bit of overkill for my purposes but I don't want to lose too much time on commercial cutting. I don't mind it taking a little longer, but not too much.
Anyone have a similar setup with experience in these times?
I am looking now at this device: Amazon.com
