stupid question, but does your server have a video card or only the CPU's (or SOC's) built-in GPU?
If you do, you might want to make sure you've configured ffmpeg to use the hardware acceleration
Also, could be that unmanic is trying to reencode the files, which would eat up wayyyyyyyy more resources than necessary. It looks like the least overhead/performance hungry option will be to just run ffmpeg directly, so you know exactly what's being done.
It does have a GPU and Jellyfin is set up to use it, but I might need to do some more work to get unmanic to use it since it's in a container. I didn't think it would need my GPU for this since it shouldn't require transcoding.
