I just installed the latest update and checking my server, the PlexTranscoder is running continually, using around 75% of my CPU resources. But I have no streams and no transcodes/syncs going. So…what’s it doing?
Here’s the explanation from the support documents.

I think there are also a few threads where the question has been asked, you might be able to find them with a bit of searching. I don’t remember which boards I saw them in though.
