HDR tone mapping broken again?

soder1 · December 25, 2021, 9:49am

Server Version#: Version 1.25.2.5319
Player Version#: android

Using PMS as a docker on my Unraid. I remember there was a problem with HDR tone mapping the spring 2021.

Now I notice I have the same problem again. Turning it of making the transcode use HW again.

What is the last working server version? Is this problem reported?

Yes, it’s an issue. See this thread.

Downgrade intel compute runtime to 21.49.21786 and it should work

As I asked about in the other thread, if using Plex docker on Unraid, and the Plex docker is the only thing that’s been updated, is this something that is builded in to the Plex docker then?

Plex Docker (at least Linuxserver’s version) automatically update drivers to the latest stuff when updating image

linuxserver/docker-plex/blob/d004764e9777514e7bc211075a68c657477e10f5/Dockerfile#L34

    
      
          RUN \
           echo "**** install runtime packages ****" && \
           apt-get update && \
           apt-get install -y \

           mkdir -p /opencl-intel && \
           for i in ${COMP_RT_URLS}; do \
          	i=$(echo ${i} | tr -d '\r'); \
          	echo "**** downloading ${i} ****"; \
          	curl -o "/opencl-intel/$(basename ${i})" \
          		-L "${i}"; \
           done && \
           dpkg -i /opencl-intel/*.deb && \
           rm -rf /opencl-intel && \

If something’s broken after updating then yeah, it’s 100% inside the container

There’s an issue on their github talking about this. They’re working on this
Plex tone mapping for transcoding 4K HDR to 1080p does not use hardware transcode because drivers are missing in the container. · Issue #297 · linuxserver/docker-plex (github.com)

Plex tone mapping for transcoding 4K HDR to 1080p does not use hardware transcode because drivers are missing in the container.

[linuxserverurl]: https://linuxserver.io [![linuxserver.io](https://raw.githubus…ercontent.com/linuxserver/docker-templates/master/linuxserver.io/img/linuxserver_medium.png)][linuxserverurl] ------------------------------ ## Expected Behavior Plex should use hardware transcoding ## Current Behavior Plex uses software transcoding ## Steps to Reproduce 1. Hardware is Intel Core i9 9900K 2. Enable hardware transcoding using the /dev/dri parameter 3. Enable tone mapping in Plex 4. Play a 4K HDR and transcode it down to 1080p ## Environment **OS:** Unraid V6.9/6.10 **CPU architecture:** x86_64 **How docker service was installed:** From the Unraid App Store ## Command used to create docker container (run/create/compose/screenshot) Not sure how to see this in Unraid. Using the default container setup ## Docker logs Not sure how to get this using Unraid There is a script I found on the support forums months ago which adds the missing driver to the container so I run it every morning after Unraid checks for docker updates so it'll fix Plex automatically. This has been broken for months. Can the correct driver be added to the container as part of the build? Script: ``` #!/bin/bash #description=This script updates Beignet Driver to support last Intel GPUs for Plex Container docker exec plex bash -c "apt update && apt -y install cmake pkg-config python ocl-icd-dev libegl1-mesa-dev ocl-icd-opencl-dev libdrm-dev libxfixes-dev libxext-dev llvm-7-dev clang-7 libclang-7-dev libtinfo-dev libedit-dev zlib1g-dev build-essential git clinfo" docker exec plex git clone --branch comet-lake https://github.com/rcombs/beignet.git docker exec plex bash -c "mkdir /beignet/build/ && cd /beignet/build && cmake -DLLVM_INSTALL_DIR=/usr/lib/llvm-7/bin .. && make -j8 && make install" docker exec plex rm -rf beignet docker exec plex bash -c "apt -y remove cmake pkg-config python ocl-icd-dev libegl1-mesa-dev ocl-icd-opencl-dev libdrm-dev libxfixes-dev libxext-dev llvm-7-dev clang-7 libclang-7-dev libtinfo-dev libedit-dev zlib1g-dev build-essential git && apt -y autoremove" docker restart plex docker exec plex clinfo -l ```

Thanks. This also explains why it doesn’t work to downgrade for me, it the intel driver already has been updated. Strange some other says it works for them to downgrade then…

Try using this image

lsiodev/plex:amd64-1.25.2.5319-c43dc0277-pkg-c2e7263a-dev-2f08980441f26b55db4d95db8ee42c958882cc36

On the github issue tracking it seems to fix the issue, it’s a small workaround before they fix it.
It seems to work on my side without downgrading drivers.

Thanks.
