> Yeah, that’s fair. However, if you haven’t updated to Android 11 (Experience 9) HW transcoding should not be broken. This was a result of something changing with Android 11. Please start a new post with details and logs.

That’s not accurate about it changing with Android 11. I’m still on 9 and it’s broken. See here:

> Like OP, HW transcoding is broken. I’m still on Android 9. Server Version is 1.25.3.5385. On the dashboard, it shows as transcoding, but no (HW) designation that I used to see. I think this snippit from my log shows it: Jan 23, 2022 18:41:19.506 [24168] DEBUG - Starting a transcode session C909627D-873E-4C00-A57A-E3C98D7F69CA at offset 0.0 (state=3) Jan 23, 2022 18:41:19.507 [24168] DEBUG - TPU: hardware transcoding: enabled, but no hardware decode accelerator found It’s definitely broke…
