Hello all, I have moved my PMS from my Synology NAS to my 8th gen Intel Hades Canyon NUC, with the dedicated AMD graphics. It is running Windows 11 and is running well so far. One thing I would love to see added to the PMS is the ability to run without having to be logged into the PC. If you do not login then the PMS does not start. Please could you add this down the road. Thanks, Steve ---

It will probably never be added officially, as long as Windows has the restriction of not allowing system services to use the hardware video decoder. inofficial: [PMS as a service](https://forums.plex.tv/t/pms-as-a-service/53381/1) (but the above caveat still applies) ---
