1.23.0.4438 crash with HEVC files

@ChuckPa
I have attached the Debug Logs using your custom .4438

Thanks.

I see where it’s crashing… just as it tries to go for the Nvidia card.

It was discovered today that the new QNAP firmware breaks Nvidia transcoding.

Which version drivers do you have installed?

The transcoder is crashing as it loads the Nvidia drivers

@ChuckPa
Hi
Its not the new qnap firmware 4.5.3.xxxx , I am on hero 4.5.2.1638 which works fine with plex 1.22.3.xxxx
NvKernelDriver 4.5.2.1638, Nvidia GPU Driver 4.0.2

Since we recently received a h1288x in the lab, let me go do some testing and see what’s happening.

Thanks Mate., It’s appreciated
Mine is an h886

upgrading firmware now. :crossed_fingers:

TO ALL FOLLOWING HERE:

We worked it out.
I have the patch file which can be applied to PMS 1.23.0.4459.

This patch file addresses the Nvidia GPU driver issue on QNAP.

I have further changes to make for the packaging to complete this as Engineering formalizes and finalizes their work.

I would appreciate volunteers to confirm my testing here.

it if anyone with X86_64 and Nvidia GPU who has a problem with QNAP PMS crashing the moment you start to transcode a video, and are interested in applying these two patches,

Please speak up.

I will PM them to you.

@ChuckPa
Happy to volunteer for testing

Directions sent.

Remember. This only applies to 1.23.0.4459

PMS 1.23.0.4459 must be installed first & before applying this patch

Im happy to test too.

Plex crashing when attempting to transcode HEVC. latest QTS, Latest 5.02 nvidia drivers and running 1.23.0.4459.

Happy to send what ever logs you need to help.

Cheers,
Zarby

happy to test on x.4459 also

Confirming that the patch solves the transcoding issues for 1.23.0.4459 on Quts Hero 4.5.2.1638, .NvKernelDriver 4.5.2.1638, Nvidia GPU Driver 4.0.2

Thanks

Hopefully i can test the patch soon, or it makes it way into a new Plex build! as plex is completely broken for me at the moment!

You will have to wait for ChuckPa to wake up .
Timezones…

Yeah figured as much :slight_smile: Hopefully QNAP also get their crap together. been a terrible couple of weeks with their software.

Folks,

No need.

Miracle Worker mode engaged; Nacelles charged.

  1. Suppports older and new driver versions
  2. Supports older and new 4.5.3 QTS version
  3. Adds support for QuTS Nvidia Driver handling.

Fixes:

  1. Crash engaging HW transcoding
  2. Ignoring of QTS / Container / Virtualization Station modes

I would very much like feedback ASAP. I would like to include this in 1.23.1 which goes to testing tomorrow

Working with the GPU in QTS Mode… will test it in another mode shortly.

Other modes should confirm that Flags are respected

GPU back into container station mode and PMS is behaving itself.

Issue fixed for me. :slight_smile:

@walderston

If you transcode something with the GPU in QTS mode, Is it good ?
