HW transcoding not working

Server Version#: Plex Media Server v1.41.4.9399
Player Version#: Web Version 4.144.1 - other players have same issue

Windows Server 2025 OS
CPU: Intel i7 8700 - iGPU HD 630 for transcoding

HW transcoding seems to fail in both 1.41.4.XXXX beta versions.
When i roll back to 1.41.3.9314 HW transcoding works again.
I have tried enabling & disabling the new HEVC transcoding, no difference.
iGPU drivers have been updated.

Logs at the time of the crash below. & zip attached

If there is anything more i can do, let me know.

Were you able to solve this? I’m running into the same issues. I’ve been messing with it all day.

I rolled back to the public 1.41.3.XXXX release. I have no issues on that one. HEVC & H264 transcoding works on that one as well.

Not sure if Plex devs are aware, but i’m just gonna test the new versions when they release.

Thanks! That fixed me right up.
