I was watching a movie on Jellyfin, and it started to stutter a bit. I assumed the transcoding was overtaxing the CPU and I was ready to hit stop.

I logged into Proxmox, looked at Jellyfin, and realized I'm on a 4 core machine and had only given Jellyfin access to 2. I made the change, got ready to reboot everything - and I saw that Jellyfin instantly had 4 cores and was playing better.

I still need to fix the transcoding problem, but this bought me some time. I was so surprised I decided to share it here. What an awesome piece of software.
