pwhodges 1531 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 (edited) There is a patch to remove the driver limitation: https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch/blob/master/win/README.md I don't know about Emby's use of multiple cards (I suspect it can't, but it's planned).

nightknight 5 Posted October 20, 2022 Author Share Posted October 20, 2022 (edited) How can i tell if emby transcoding is being limited by the gpu driver / does each client transcode count? does that mean the second transcode would be all on the cpu?

nightknight 5 Posted October 21, 2022 Author Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) I have been having alot of issues with direct play remotely/lan. On both the lan and the remote the direct play takes a while to load. from remote sometimes more than 45 seconds to load an episode. ive confirmed its not a bandwidth issue. if a video starts in transcode the stream works perfect. not sure what to do. have any ideas? the direct play stream was only 1mbps. i dont understand why the delay. It not all direct play streams either. some work fine Edited October 21, 2022 by nightknight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightknight 5 Posted October 21, 2022 Author Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) nope no throttles.i can get my crappy almost 40mbps upload speed between my vpn server "tcp" and the client "depending on encryption strength". The problem persists regardless of 600mb movie/9 gb movie. The largest movie in my library "9gb" loads without problems. But a lot of 600mb movies don't load quick they take forever to start.

Was it? I'm guessing not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightknight 5 Posted October 21, 2022 Author Share Posted October 21, 2022 Yea i connect to the server through an encrypted tunnel. The only port is my vpn server. And its not throttled. I use it every day for file transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightknight 5 Posted October 21, 2022 Author Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) I tried this from 4 different android phones. 2 were on different sides of the planet. The direct play stream is only 1mbps and it still takes forever to load. Other wise I have no problem playing a 6mbps direct play stream from 4 phones at a time. Other than the load time for some videos. transcodig at those bitrates/above have no issue starting.

This sounds to me like the player is having to bring the whole file down before it can start playback so it could be some sort of structure issue with the file itself.

nightknight 5 Posted October 21, 2022 Author Share Posted October 21, 2022 my files are on local hdds. Most of them downloaded with yt dlp.

ebr 14913 Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 In what format/container are the files? If you run mediainfo on one that works and one that doesn't, what is different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
