roofuskit 1 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) Everything appears to be setup perfectly. Hardware check inside docker sees the video card correctly. Emby Server sees the video card correctly and allows me to select it for various hardware transcoding settings. But when I force a video to transcode it loads up the CPU and the logs appear to say that it is choosing to use a software decoder/encoder each time. I see several mentions of subtitles in the logs but I had subtitles off each time and have the passthrough option enabled. Is there something I can do about this, or is it expected behavior? I have attached a few examples of it choosing the software method as well as my hardware detection log. Currently I'm running my Emby server on an Nvidia ShieldTV and I would really like to switch it over to my normal Ubuntu server which primarily runs things in docker. ffmpeg-remux-8d49d268-db57-41d0-85f7-1ab85b08dbae_1.txtffmpeg-transcode-8695e81b-7c2e-4e8b-ad11-5b36a07eb068_1.txtffmpeg-transcode-7e1bd47b-4c88-4858-8025-acd1705d60b4_1.txthardware_detection-63756973622.txt Edited May 18, 2021 by roofuskit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37245 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 HI there, do you have Emby Premiere? Hardware transcoding requires Emby Premiere. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
