Luke 40065 Posted August 22, 2019 Posted August 22, 2019 The situation is still the same. Please see post 21. Thanks.
bizarro252 17 Posted August 22, 2019 Posted August 22, 2019 Thanks. I will look on the FreeNAS forums to see if someone has already asked and if not will see if anyone fits the bill
Luke 40065 Posted August 22, 2019 Posted August 22, 2019 Thanks. Make sure they are aware it is gainful employment.
bizarro252 17 Posted August 22, 2019 Posted August 22, 2019 Will do, rules say no advertising so checking with one of their admins about how / if I can post about it.
Aanerud 0 Posted August 22, 2019 Posted August 22, 2019 It’s possible , https://passthroughpo.st/gpu-passthrough-reported-working-on-bhyve/ But probably still pretty experimental. Workaround that many uses, is having the host run ESXi, then FreeBSD / FreeNAS as a VM. That allows you to spin up “whatever” next to it, and get full local speed. ESXi uses pass trough to the HBA for the drives, and pass trough GPU’s to other VM’s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
bizarro252 17 Posted August 22, 2019 Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) So, at least according to this, where they are discussing enabling it on Plex, it needs to be on FreeBSD 12, so we (FreeNAS users anyways) may just have to wait. https://www.ixsystems.com/community/threads/activating-plex-hardware-acceleration.75391/#post-545237 Looks like beta release will start in Dec. https://redmine.ixsystems.com/versions/467 Edited August 22, 2019 by bizarro252 1

Duffyx 25 Posted March 1, 2020 Author Posted March 1, 2020 I'm on native FreeBSD. If it doesnt work there I doubt it will work on FreeNAS. I installed through FreeBSD ports.
bingemeister 2 Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 I'm having the same issue with my FreeBSD server. Hardware acceleration works perfectly when using ffmpeg directly but ffdetect seems to have some issues with my system. Is it in any way possible to force emby to use hardware acceleration regardless of what ffdetect reports?

Luke 40065 Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 It's not that simple. If ffdetect can't use it, then neither will our embedded ffmpeg builds, so it's not a matter of hacking the detection. We're still trying to figure out what's going on. Thanks.
bingemeister 2 Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Hm I understand. If there is any information I could provide you with to help you investigate this, please let me know.
Baenwort 108 Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 So it seems the PLEX guys have gotten it working at https://www.ixsystems.com/community/threads/activating-plex-hardware-acceleration.75391/page-3 has anyone been able to get Emby to use HW?
Luke 40065 Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 We're looking to hire someone from the FreeBSD community who can help us with this.
bingemeister 2 Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 If it helps you to debug the issue I can offer you full SSH access to my server. 1
Duffyx 25 Posted April 21, 2020 Author Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) Luke, could the ffdetect developer use the SSH access? This can help but might be quite intensive. But when adding enough debug statements in the ffdetect binary, output can be compared between a Linux and FreeBSD machine in between functions. Edited April 21, 2020 by Duffyx

If you're offering to provide a machine, thank you very much, although once we find a FreeBsd developer we'll make sure they have a local environment for this. Thanks. 1
dcol 173 Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) Just found this thread. Now that TrueNAS Core is in beta and using FreeBSD 12, I think future development should be done on this platform. TrueNAS Core is replacing FreeNAS. Edited July 16, 2020 by dcol
MRobi 161 Posted July 18, 2020 Posted July 18, 2020 On 7/16/2020 at 12:35 PM, dcol said: TrueNAS Core is replacing FreeNAS. FreeNAS is getting a rebrand not really replaced. This isn't a completely new platform. Even today FreeNAS/TrueNAS are over 95% identical with the difference being a few added features for enterprise control. Although with FreeBSD 12 this theoretically should now be possible, and if it is I'm going to go out and spend a whole lot of money on a shiny new GPU
