Hi there I'm currently in the process of moving away from Plex to Emby, I've my reasons but please don't forget about this below, I don't want to hurt any sensibility. So I recently noticed on a movie that I had huge artefacts/jumps when looking a film on my Chromecast. Some informations about my setup: Hardware is a Minisforum MS-01 Core i9-13900H, 96GB RAM and 2 TB disk OS is Almalinux 9 server I run Emby & Plex instances on Docker on this computer, GPU is "passthroughed" (with: - /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128) Emby version is 4.8.8.0 I didn't install any extra drivers Test protocol: The hardware is the same, so are Docker passthrough settings for Emby & Plex Movie is always the same, so the sequence (in my case, it's Hunger Games last episode, when Katniss is going alone to Panem in the plane, hiding behind a crate (sequence @ 29:00) Movie file is in 4K HDR 10 HEVC I started to look a little bit deeper because I suspect transcoding quality issues and this is what I found so far: Emby in Quicksync transcoding : very bad quality, the worst probably, a lot of artifacts (forced by deselecting VAAPI from advanced settings) Emby in VAAPI transcoding - VAAPI HW tone mapping : really dark, almost impossible to see artifacts, so I'll will not retain this Emby in VAAPI transcoding - Extra-T OpenCL tone mapping with Hable algorithm: quite a lot of artifacts, flat spots in dark areas, jumps Emby in VAAPI transcoding - Extra-T OpenCL tone mapping with Reinhard algorithm: seems better than Hable, but not really good Now : Plex : Auto quality with slow transcoding preset : no issue My Emby test instance : VM with Nvidia GPU passthroughed from ESX host to VM to Docker instance, NVDEC & Hable : no issue either I've to precise that I could always watch my movie, there is no play issue, only quality but I'd like to sort that out. It is also hard to describe it, you really have to see it. So, where do we start?

Hello sir , can I install Emby Server 4.8.8.0 to AlmaLinux 9 and if this is possible, what operating system must I choose on download page? https://emby.media/linux-server.html Thanks in advance!!!
