Hi,
I’m running a windows server 2016, and as you know the PMS is x86 (32 bit) will It bee a x64 (64 bit) version?
Maybe not now but is it any plans for it?
As many people are running PMS on desktops running windows and ofc also servers running windows I guess that many people will bee happy if it’s get rls in 64 bit version.
As I understands it both Linux and Mac OS have 64 bit versions.
The reason it has not been done is that the Plex devs have not seen enough gains to warrant the transition. There simply has not been a compelling non-cosmetic reason to switch at this point.

Well it should gain performance with around 10-15% and also all cpus today are 64 bit so it should bee nice to use all of it, and video libs are getting bigger so it should bee nice to use more then 4GB of ram.
I’m hoping that they I’ll “upgrade” it to 64bit
with all modern windows systems being 64bit this has got to be the way to go. I ru n on a dual Xeon Dell PowerEdge server with Windows 2012 R2 and would really appreciate having a 64bit version of PMS to take proper advantage of the direct memory addressing and additional x64 processing power
I Stream to multiple devices at a time. This would mean my 1800x would destroy everything
I am using PMS on Windows (32 threads, 1 Gbps upload speed), streaming a 4K (~50mbps) movie to my LG Smart TV in my living room (0.5 Gbps download speed).
Everything works well, the transcoding process use about 1.3GB of memory.
When I try to watch the same video in a browser, the transcoding process crashes.
I noticed, that the process dies at the same moment when the process tries to allocate more than 2GBs of memory.
Is there any chance that the app could be compiled to use larger memory addresses?
it’s really not needed. it should be done when required.
2024 clean-up: implemented
