How can I activate the use of the graphics card? (Transcoding)

hi guys, i am using plex-htpc windows application.

This application runs the transcoding as gpu.

When I want to watch through the browser, my processor is 100%. Can I enable gpu usage in the browser?

I can’t watch 4k movies in browser.

The browser depends on your server to handle the transcoding while native apps are usually more capable of dealing with different formats/codecs. A browser is the most restricted/limited platform when it comes to support for a wide range of formats/codecs. You can configure your server to use the server’s GPU for transcoding – however this requires an active Plex Pass membership.
