Bringing my own ffmpeg - Exynos transcoding

[alexjcgdf 0]

Hi Luke;

1 - Looking over the forum I saw that for Exynos (Odroid XU4 in my case) I would have to have my own ffmpeg to make it work. Is this something that the server allows me to do or it is closed for its own ffmpeg?

2 - I am using emby 4.4 -  the Exynos or vaapi support are gone, the only on ethat appears in there is the ARM V4L@ H.264 and the OpenMax H.264 in coders and nothin at all in decoders.

 

My dream would be that I could watch a 1080p x265 movie in a 1080p x264 client. Or is this or I will have to download many movies on my library as x264 instead of current x265.

The OS I have in there is a Ubuntu 18.04 which have hardware acceleration on kernel and comes with a hardware enabled accelerated ffmpeg, however that ffmpeg is version 3 and when I try to use it with emby it crashes emby.

Is there any hope in my case?

By the way, the hardware acceleration works fine with that kernel (4.14 + ffmpeg 3).

Hi @alexjcgdf can you please attach the emby server and hardware detection logs? We'd like to see what's going on there. Thanks !

Hi Luke!

Here comes:

This is the green screen I see. The servers shows as transcoding but it stays in a loop of 15 seconds and starts again.

These are 1080P HVEC movies being coded to x264 1080P.

I saw what the app is doing. It is sending the txt log to a cloud folder. So it puts as a link on my post
