Thanks Luke, I'll just wait for a fix to rollout... in the meantime it's back to Plex for now as that's working smoothly. I switch between the two as bugs rise and fall!

Hi, we don't even know what your issue is. The issue in this topic has already been solved for the user above.

 

Apologies, I had read elsewhere that some users found that HEVC 10bit files are not using HW acceleration, that's the issue I have. x264 files are fine, but HEVC 10bit falls back to software transcoding which maxes out the processor and render my DS718+ unusable. I've tried switching off the decoders as mentioned in this post, rebooting the NAS, restarting emby, but nothing changes.

 

I'm not sure what logs I need to supply to identify the issue? I share my library out with a couple of people and video files are transcoded to 720p to those remote users, however now it's not possible.

 

If someone can point me in the right direction as to what logs etc to post I'll sort it asap.

 

TIA

It's broken again. same issue as before, restarting emby does not fix anything unlike before. same file. logs attached.

 

Try rebooting the NAS, also check the amount of free space the system drive of the nas has.

nas has plenty of system drive space.

 

Is rebooting the nas every few weeks going to be the only option to fix this? this is an emby bug, plex has no such issues running on the same NAS.

Same here, rebooting the NAS makes no difference. Plex works with HW acceleration just fine, emby falls back to SW every time and the NAS becomes virtually unusable. Over 3 terabytes of available space on the 718+.

Also here same Problem on my DS918+. What can i do to help find the Problem?

 

 

It's very frustrating, my server is now useless when I'm not on the LAN as I need the HW acceleration to transcode large files on the fly. Also frustrating that this thread is marked as 'Solved' when obviously lots of people have the same issue as us!

DS918+ on DSM 6.2.2-24922 update 4, just for information

 

Is that a 10bit HEVC file? Mine works OK for x264 and 8bit HEVC but chokes on the 10bit files.

10 bit fail on hardware transcode than use software transcode. I can send log if luke need it.

Exactly what i see here on my Sys.

Hi guys,

 

I apologize for the problems youi're experiencing.

 

You need to uncheck the VAAPI HEVC decoder and leave all others checked. 

 

This way, you'll get hw acceleration for encoding.

(Encoding is the most important and most expensive part of transcoding.)

 

Please try and let me know about your results.

 

Thanks,

softworkz

I want to be clear that this is not the issue that I am having, all videos fail hardware transcoding and there are no options to enable or disable hardware transcoding for any particular codec like i showed in an earlier reply. it is not related to 10bit encoding

What options were showing for you before?

just to verify something, emby is installed directly on your synology or via docker ?

 

 

edit : after read your log your directly on your synology

sorry for my poor engligh,i am from china,and my synology is ds918.

my hw for hevc 10bit is broken too.

when i uncheck the vaapi hevc decoder and leave all other checked.

uncheck vaapi hevc decoder 

1080P hevc 10 bit,cpu occupancy 50,well play

2160P hevc 10 bit,cpu occupancy 99,play very very slow, about 13fps

check vaapi devc decoder

1080P hevc 10 bit,cpu occupancy 90,can play but i litter slow

2160P hevc 10 bit,cpu occupancy 99,play very very very very very very slow

 

 

hope the next version can fix it 

thanks emby,i love it
