Can Plex please add better Intel tone mapping support in Windows? There’s great support on Linux, but a huge percentage of users are on Windows machines and are throttled by not being able to take full advantage of their hardware. I know there is “partial” support, but is full support in the works for at least quicksync??

Covered by an existing Feature Suggestion, which discusses tonemapping support for both Intel QuickSync and NVIDIA GPUs. I’m going to close this thread to avoid splitting votes. If you feel otherwise, send me a PM (click on my username, then Message).
