It was working fine, but with support waning the expectation that it might still be a viable platform doesn't comfort me. I originally built the box as a DVA3221 which worked perfectly. The only hangup was that my server is a Shuttle Box and the video card blocked the x1 slot which means I had to use USB 3.1 to get 2.5g network connections. That created a different subset of problems. So i moved my plex box to a light unraid install. I gained a few things such as Airvpn wireguard and some better docker support. HDR tone mapping works as well. I love the synology software platform. My data sits on a DS1621+.

I gave up.. with the retirement of wjz304 I decided to move away from a dedicated plex box. Synology and Plex (hw transcoding has always been hit or miss except with the Nvidia NVR route.)

The issue still is problematic.. I see there is a new version released 5 days ago.. do we know what was fixed? Edit: My system is still crashing with tone mapping enabled. It was working fine on 7.1.1.

Does this work with tone mapping in plex? When I enable tone mapping, it crashes the video driver

The screen will turn off on a connected monitor when the video driver is loaded properly. This may be what happens in your case. Have you tried connecting via network?

I got mine working finally by turning off my internet during the install process. I now have 7.1.1-U5 working with HW i915 transcoding on an i7-10700. I used jim3ma's loader

I've pretty much swung and missed on the SA6400 install. I can get 7.2 installed on my i7-10700 build, but I don't get /dev/dri and the install for 7.1 just reinstalls/migrates every boot time

24 i believe. I have an I7-10700 and get 8c/16t just fine.

Do we have confirmation that intel transcoding works on this? Edit: I get no drives detected. I have both an MSATA and a SATA SSD.

Shuttle MiniPC w/i3-7100T.. it works fine with DS920 and DVA3221 It does have an msata disk, not sure if the SA6400 has issues with non synology disks

How are yall installing on baremetal? I get no disk found when using the image here https://blog.jim.plus/blog/post/jim/synology-sa6400-with-i915.

I saw something similar regarding using a Denverton build (DVA3221) vs DS920+ (Gemini Lake) the old Denverton would perform slower on cpu intensive tasks (openvpn for one)

Do we know what the max cpu is set to for the SA6400? I currently have a 10th gen CPU running as a 920+ with HT disabled, but if this will allow me to turn HT back on I'd make a test of it. Found it myself: it's 12C/24T

Is there any particular reason as to why one build would be slower doing the same task? OpenVPN Throughput DS920+ 50+mb/s DVA3221+: ~25-30mb/s Same hardware between installs. (i3-7100T)
