Did anything change in this version that would affect HW Transcoding? I’ve noticed my CPU usage is bucked at 100% all of a sudden when transcoding a 1080p file to 720p. I have a DS920+ running DSM 7.2 RC

Where does this stand? If I don’t want to run a beta, am I waiting for 1.32.8? Or is the fix in the current main build? (Gemini Lake)

All this work is completed. Most of the work is already released in Public 1.32.7 A few bug fixes are in PMS beta 1.32.8 (which will be public shortly as well) We are already working on the next round of transcoder updates & fixes (there several things we need to fix and doing them based on sev…

I just stumbled on this thread as I wanted to try hardware encoding with my J4125. Looks like 1.32.8.7639 just happened to release today to my luck. With the update I can now H/W transcode 4K HEVC to 1080p at about 15-20% CPU for the 2 files I tested (HEVC Main 10). HDR tone mapping does not work w…

I went and updated to the latest version (1.32.8.7639, stable). I am seeing hardware transcoding working, along with HDR tone mapping. Running on J4125 (Synology DS920+), Linuxserver docker image. Great work folks

[image] Robert_Muehler: HDR tone mapping does not work with hardware acceleration. I’m guessing that is one of the bugs that @ChuckPa mentioned. I am running from a Docker container in Ubuntu. Is there a beta release that I could spin up in a container to see if the HDR tone mapping is fixed? …
