I made a topic in a feature requests sub forum as well,

Already requested here.

Disable transcoding on specific library

Would be great if you could disable transcoding on certain libraries! For instance my server can’t handle x265, so would love to be able to disable transcoding for a specific library containing x265 so only direct play is allowed. Especially with 2160p being used a lot, it could be relevant for a lot

Or here for 4K only

Disable 4K Transcoding

Transcoding Settings should have option to “disable” 4K files transcoding. One movie folder contains: 4K version 1080p Plex should take 1080p version for transcoding instead of 4K. 4K transcoding needs super power CPU. Without this option 4K movies must be in the seperate library or must adding 720p version.
