NVIDIA HW HDR Tone Mapping on Windows

Hope this thread doesn’t die

Another kick to make sure this thread stays alive!

What’s the situation ??

I’ve seen this work on emby and jellyfin.
In fact I just tested this on jellyfin to see.

It used 60% of my 1080ti but it looks great !

Bumping because I’d love to hear any updates. Thanks

Due a bump methinks

I really hope hardware transcoding get’s supported under windows, it will not only allow me to delete 1TB of lower quality SDR versions but transcoding the 40GB+ version of the movie would look a lot nicer than a 3GB SDR version. This Feature can’t come soon enough!

I have been looking for this solution for days now. Although its not yet implemented at lease I now know why my system was tanking when trying to transcode 1x 4K film.
(3770k 4.3ghz, 32Gb ram, Quadro P2000)

I knew this system could easily do 4K, Now I realises that HDR->SDR Tone Mapping HW transcoding is not supported in windows via Nvidia HW acceleration at this moment in time.

I really hope this feature can be added as the Nvidia GPU can actually handle it, just not on windows at this moment in time. I don’t want to spend the money on a new CPU just for this to work. (I would need a new CPU, Motherboard, Ram. Not a cheap upgrade) We just don’t know how long it will be until this feature is added.

Once 8K gets as fully adopted as 4K, probably 5-10 years from now, that is when 4K HDR will get fully supported by Plex under Windows. :sweat_smile:

Would be nice to get an official response for plex on this. Uses 20-30% of my 3900x for one stream!
