Server Version#: 1.43.1.10540 Player Version#: After updating to the last beta version, version 1.43.1.10540 , GPU (hardware) transcoding no longer worked for me. I am on unraid, running Hotio docker container running on a Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 265K with build in IGPU with quicksync. When I rollba…

This will be included in 1.43.2

Thank you - this is really useful. The fact that you’re seeing identical behavior on kernel 6.8 with i915 rules out my theory about the xe driver being the root cause. I appreciate you sharing that. It also narrows things considerably. If the probe fails regardless of which kernel driver is active,…

Thank you :heart::heart_hands:t3:

Coming from one of the merged threads, I read this thread to try to understand how these problems are related. I ran two clean sequential tests - same fresh config directory, same hardware (Intel Core Ultra 7 255H, Arrow Lake-P, PCI 8086:7d51, kernel 6.17 with xe driver active), same Docker setup. S…

Just chiming in here. Running Ultra 5 245k and getting the same result.

Thanks, @Lanny0134 . Hoping that this thread is getting official attention.

Also chiming in. Ultra 9 285 experiencing the same failure of hardware transcoding when upgrading from 1.43.0 to 1.43.1. Buried in logs is the same hardware transcoding: enabled, but no hardware decode accelerator foundentry mentioned in this thread. Behavior on 1.43.1 is to fallback to software t…
