That’s correct.
- As of 1.21.0, the
VaapiDriver="i965"isn’t needed on any J4xxx CPU (DSx20+). - Native Synology apps do not yet have the HDR support. ( We are finishing that effort )
- As @premikkoci points out, if you want it now, you’ll need to use Docker. The problem there is you will need to map the hardware in as well (which isn’t supported by the Synology GUI) . If it were not for that limitation, you could completely map your existing native Plex install into Docker without issue. In short, you don’t have HDR tone mapping on Synology systems unless you create the container by hand on the shell command line.
To speak to that 62% loading, that’s telling me you’re getting software HDR (without OpenCL). I’m not surprised and is because of the above.
HDR tone mapping requires additional runtime libraries that allow the GPU (not the transcoding ASIC) to perform the color mapping work.
