Hi I recently upgraded my Plex server to a 12700k on windows because I heard such good things about intel quick sync and plex. However, I have been quite disappointed with transcoding performance. Using hardware acceleration seems to load the gpu extremely heavily when using encoding. Just one stream of live tv loads the GPU to 80% 2 streams and the server can’t keep up and buffering happens often.
Should this igpu not be a lot more powerful then this? Is 12th gen just not very well supported? I am running the latest version of pms with stated support for 12th gen intel.
Unknown. Obviously, this iGPU is new to Plex (and the world). So, probably not too many people out there to confirm your findings, especially since many run dedicated Plex servers with much cheaper components.
Im getting 80% gpu usage for 1 1080p transcode to 720p. Something seems way off. Can anyone else confirm similar behavior on 12th gen? Using windows 10 btw.
As others have stated in other places you’ve posted. Windows 10 might be the issue with this new hybrid chip. Windows 11 appears to have a better scheduler implemented for it.
