Question about HWA for AMD Phoenix series (7640HS)

[Riezel 33]

i've been wondering why in conversion task, the HWA failed and decided to use software ones instead (and it didn't use transcoding settings? like CRF configuration etc)

while in realtime transcoding it works, also it seems emby use it's own driver than trying to use current driver installed (is there a way to force use the OS use? i've tried with diagnose plugins, but it wont detect my gpu, i want to try it tbh, maybe it will fix this issue)
i attached 2 transcode logs (1 with real time transcode, 1 while doing conversion for download)

Hi, are you sure you didn't change any server transcoding options?

Warning EncoderParametersH264Vaapi.CompressionLevel: Original:  Actual: 3
Warning EncoderParametersH264Vaapi.BitrateMode: Original: Classic Actual: Vbr
Warning EncoderParametersH264Vaapi.ProfileLimit: Original:  Actual: AvcProfileHigh

i'm sure i did, but what i'm asking is about the driver itself though, not the config (i change them so it suits my need, since i've encoded some of my files myself with another apps, so i know what i'm doing, but for the sake of testing, in case you're curious, even reset it to default, its still same output), since i'm wondering if using latest driver, can fix my HWA for emby properly

i've even trying the transcode test plugin, and the output

 

also one of those test 
VAAPI > VAAPI result is like this (that's why i want to try to use newer driver)

@Riezelit is on our to do list to have a flag to allow you to use the drivers on your system.

We will also have a new ffmpeg build on the server beta channel in the near future, so stay tuned for that.
