Embedding (thumbnail/chapters) rewrote the whole file — a 10 GB video spent minutes making a
10 GB temp copy — while the Plex .nfo + poster sidecars already carry that metadata. So:
- builtin presets no longer embed (migration 0040 re-seeds them; formats._DEFAULTS embed off);
only the tiny FFmpegThumbnailsConvertor (for poster.jpg) remains, so downloads go
video -> audio -> merge -> done with no full-file rewrite
- default preset is now 1080p (Best stays available, second in the list) so a long video
doesn't silently pull ~10 GB and blow the quota
Users who want self-contained files can enable embedding in a custom profile.
