I’m running channels dvr server on freenas 11.2 and there seems to be no option for hardware transcoding, is this not possible?
Hardware transcoding is not supported on FreeBSD
Is it not possible at all? Because Plex seems to use hardware transcoding on freenas
Can you run this command and send me the output:
ls -alh /dev/dri
No such file or directory
Do they show up in the Plex jail?
no i'm guessing i have to install the modules
Hardware transcoding is now supported to TrueNAS with DVR v2020.11.10.2319
tmm1 is there anything that I need to install in the jail to get channels to detect and use hardware transcoding? I have the drivers loaded in the jail, but channels is still using libx64.
card0 -> ../drm/0
renderD128 -> ../drm/128
I have Plex loaded in another jail and have verified HW transcoding it working there.
Thanks
Please install latest pre-release, then run HWE test (https://getchannels.com/docs/getting-started/faqs/channels-plus/#why-is-my-dvr-not-showing-a-hardware-transcoding-option) and submit diagnostics.
Seems the test was successful, I emailed the log output.
Thanks
Please submit diagnostics from the dvr web UI
Did the hardware transcoding In FreeNAS get resolved? I'm considering moving from Windows to my FreeNAS server, but lack of hardware transcoding would be a no-go.
