Hardware transcoding randomly stops working

Server Version#: 1.24.1.4931 currently, but has been consistent through several updates

Windows / i5-4690k / HD4600 iGPU

Hw transcoding works normally when the server is started, but over time, I’ll notice it’s reverted back to software transcoding — (hw) no longer shows in dashboard, and CPU utilization is high.

Restarting Plex fixes the issue.

Not headless, not a service. Wondering if screen timeout could be causing it. Anyone else have this issue?
