HDR Tone Mapping on Windows not utilizing GPU in 2023 Will we get support?

Will Plex ever support HDR Tone mapping in windows and actually utilize the GPU in hardware acceleration? When i Turn this feature off i can run 3 4k transcodes simultaneously, but my footage looks so terrible. but with it enabled i cannot run even 1 4k transcode. I tried to figure out how to run a docker and get nvidia working through wsl but that was a nightmare. It’s 2023 and theres tons of 4k HDR files and would be nice to be able to finally get this working.

Tone mapping in Windows already works with a Nvidia GPU

Make sure you’re using the 64-bit version of Plex Media Server
