Live TV pausing/restarting constantly on DS418play

[mskenny 7]

I've recently moved my Emby install to a Synology DS418play with 6Gb RAM.  It has been working flawlessly but I've just updated the Synology OS to the latest version, DSM 6.2.4-25556.  Since then, when I watch live TV it constantly stops and restarts the stream every 10 seconds or so.  I checked the Synology Resource manager and Emby is using 90-100% CPU with ffmpeg using most of that.

I've just left the default settings for transcoding.  Perhaps I need to modify them, but there wasn't an issue before the latest update.  Thank you.

I went into transcoding settings and enabled "advanced" and I don't see any hardware options. I'm guessing this is a Synology bug and will try their support. Any advice would be appreciated.

I've waited patiently for an answer and received none. I know you were getting a release out but a note saying that you expected it to be fixed in 4.6 would have been appreciated.

At any rate, I see the transcoding options back (see below) and I can play a TV channel without interruption. CPU usage is down and ffmpeg is only using about 6% of CPU. I guess that fixed the problem.
