Biofects 4 Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 Hello, I had to build a quick little machine to replace my older home machine. I wanted to go cheap(yes I know never go cheap) the specs are: Motherboard: PRO Z790-A WIFI DDR4 CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13700K Memory: 32GB GPU: MSI Radeon 6650xt Drive 1tb m.2 I have all my media on a storage using cifs Id do use this for the entire home automation and other projects as well so not just dedicated to Emby(sorry) I have looked at logs and see that its using the intel CPU for transcoding, Any advice would be great. ffmpeg-transcode-b7e2b5ee-c6da-42d8-a347-6592fd44f08d_1.txt
Biofects 4 Posted May 19, 2023 Author Posted May 19, 2023 @kikinjowell qsync is for qnap nas, I should actually disable that since the transcoding happens on the host not the storage, and yes my storage is an old 8 bay brobofs
kikinjo 281 Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 Did not understand part "qsync is for qnap nas" Raptor lake is latest generation intel cpu with very good gpu, UHD 770 if i m not mistaken on i7. Use that for transcoding. i have the i9 of same generation and gpu is very powerful. Disable all Vappi checkboxes, and try it. Drivers and everithing seems in place, so that should work fine. For MSI Radeon 6650xt, i think you are missing drivers or something since it is not detected. Question is if it is supported in emby also. 1

Biofects 4 Posted May 19, 2023 Author Posted May 19, 2023 The reason I want to offload transcoding to GPU is this server sits in a rack and has no monitor attached. I have other programs that use the CPU more frequent and heavier.

kikinjo 281 Posted May 19, 2023 Posted May 19, 2023 Your CPU Intel has GPU also, as you see on screenshots that you posted from emby. GT1 UHD Graphics.
Solution Biofects 4 Posted May 19, 2023 Author Solution Posted May 19, 2023 Think I found the issue.... https://www.amd.com/en/products/graphics/amd-radeon-rx-6500-xt#product-specs Supported Rendering Format HDMI™ 4K Support Yes 4K H264 Decode Yes 4K H264 Encode No H265/HEVC Decode Yes H265/HEVC Encode No AV1 Decode No Guess I need to sell this and got get the 3060ti 1
Biofects 4 Posted May 23, 2023 Author Posted May 23, 2023 Hey so I made a mistake, When looking at the AMD site, I selected the 6500xt I run 6650xt which does support encoding/transcoding. I have the mesa drivers and the gpu driver installed but Emby still will not see it as an option for transcoding. Any help will be great. https://www.amd.com/en/products/graphics/amd-radeon-rx-6650-xt Supported Rendering Format HDMI™ 4K Support Yes 4K H264 Decode Yes 4K H264 Encode Yes H265/HEVC Decode Yes H265/HEVC Encode Yes AV1 Decode Yes
Biofects 4 Posted May 23, 2023 Author Posted May 23, 2023 I don't see where I can remove the solved from this thread or if I need to create a new one
Biofects 4 Posted May 23, 2023 Author Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) Ok FINALLY! after some reading and found this thread I was able to get the GPU usable in Ember, I never enrolled it in MOK, now that the drivers will load on boot each time it works For this using AMD graphics this is the AMDGPU-install flags I used amdgpu-install --usecase=workstation,opencl --vulkan=pro --no-32 --accept-eula This will ask to create a MOK password (make sure you enter one and CONFIRM else it will fail Then you have to reboot (make sure you have a display present) On boot you will get the blue MOK screen Follow instructions and then boot. Edited May 23, 2023 by Biofects added screenshot 1
