Server Version#: 1.21.0.3616 Player Version#: Web 4.43.4 I just saw the announcement for tone mapping support https://support.plex.tv/articles/hdr-to-sdr-tone-mapping/ As soon as I enable it, my NAS fallback to SW transcoding and it can’t keep up. According to the documentation it should work out…

Okay, I just saw that the docker base image was bumped to Ubuntu 20.04. Since then I can report that it now works ! I get HW transcoding & tone mapping. For everyone running on a NAS (actually - everywhere), I’d recommend using Docker - it just works. [image]

And this is why I love you guys and what you provide!

I hope Plex is taking notes of how the community reacts when they develop functionality we actually care for. The positivism around this has been great. Thank you for this Plex.

i just saw that a beta is already avaible since yesterday. Now hardware accelerated hdr tone mapping for intel under centos 8 is working fine. I only had to install ocl-icd and ocl-icd-devel rpms. Thanks you very much for the great work. [image]

Wow, that’s a very low CPU usage. Nice!

Hi! I have installed the new PMS version, which had the support for the Intel Compute Runtime OpenCL driver versions 20.36 and later (I have 20.48). Aside from the PMS update, I have installed ocl-icd package and the said intel-compute-runtime package. Is there other packages to install? If I don’t …

The Debian packaging will tell you what is required. Were there any outstanding requirements printed when upgrading?

Well, there were no new dependencies and I’m using ArchLinux :sweat_smile:. I checked and aside from ocl-icd, I have the content of the ocl-icd-devel package installed in my system and, added to that, the intel-compute-runtime package installed too.

Oh, that explains it. Try adding the Beignet package I’m sure I don’t need to remind: a. You’re in a QNAP thread (NAS boxes) b. We don’t support Arch. Please refer to the package creator for support.

Ups, sorry if it is the wrong place. The beignet package is for Haswell or older iGPUs and I have a Coffee Lake one (i5 8400). From what I have saw, the intel-compute-runtime is the package to use with newer Intel chips. I will do more research trying to find the solution.

While that’s true, the initial release used Beignet. I also have a CoffeeLake CPU and Beignet works for it. There are changes coming for ICR.

Yes, Engineering and the Build teams are both working on it.
It’s not an easy task to introduce native packages for NAS systems.
