Hi, are you still having an issue with this?

After days of troubleshooting, I can confirm that downgrading from 4.9.3 to 4.9.1.90 resolved this issue for me. 

My Arc A380 wasn't tone mapping, I was getting: 
 

WARNING: Small BAR detected for device 0000:83:00.0
Failed to get number of OpenCL platforms: -1001.
Failed to created derived device context: -19.
Conversion failed!
→ Falling back to software transcoding.

I am no longer getting these errors after a rollback and tone mapping is fixed.

Nothing in the changelog, but anyone planning on being the guinea pig to see if 4.9.5 fixes these issues?  I'll be sticking on 4.9.1.90 for a while.

@LukeThis still seems to be an issue on 4.9.5.

Do we know what the latest stable version that correctly handles hardware tonemapping? is it in fact 4.9.1.90?

 

Thanks,

Yes. That's the latest that isn't broken.

HI, we'll have the new ffmpeg build on the server beta channel very soon, so stay tuned for that. Thanks.
