fireplex 5 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Hi, I run emby in a docker under unRAID and have an Intel i7 7700 with QuickSync support passing through /dev/dri successfully. Do I need to disable VAAPI or QuickSync in one of these options below? and presumably I leave software tone mapping off as hardware is enabled? Thanks!

sross44 235 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I'm running on unRAID as well. I have my settings exactly the same. However on the first transcoding tab, I have all of the VAAPI options unchecked like below. Let me know if you have any issues with transcoding and tonemapping and I'll be more than happy to help.

fireplex 5 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Hi, Thanks for replying. I must be blind but cannot spot the "first transcoding tab" or the options you posted I just see two tabs under Server-> Transcoding, Transcoding or Tone Mapping: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lessaj 63 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Transcoding is the first tab being referred to here. Have to set "Enable hardware acceleration when available" to Advanced to get the checkbox options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I had set HW acceleration to yes rather than advanced, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RanmaCanada 346 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I think you might have to disable quicksync as hardware tonemapping wasn't added until Tiger Lake. I could be wrong though as softworkz is a wizard when it comes to coding dependencies that aren't officially supported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireplex 5 Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 Hmm, Plex can do it on Kaby lake (my CPU) so I guess emby would also? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuickSync has much better performance over VAAPI. At least in my experience that's the case. Usually quicksync is the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
