Transcoder with HW accell still fails for me on Shield’s latest beta. I did this twice. This is the logs for the second time
Steps to reporduce:
Watch a Live TV program (via direct play)
Select a previously recorded MPEG2 file to optimize with HW accell enabled.
(I’m not sure if watching the live TV part matters…it’s just that I was watching it at the time)
Initially the transcode will work…at about 3.5x or so. Then, it will stop…say waiting on the conversions status page. At the same time, the live TV program will start to stutter and then freeze.
Could anyone please chime in…preferably a Plex Team Member: Is this issue a regression in Plex, or is it tied to a Shield firmware/software update which “broke” HW transcode on Plex. Can I just install an older version of PMS on my Shield which will fix this issue or am I stuck? This thread is from Aug '18, and I havn’t had Plex (my shield) that long…I’ve never had HW transcode work reliably.
Plex says they support HW transcode on the Shield. I can’t imagine it’s always been this way.
