Timmey22 Posted January 15, 2020 Share #205 Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) Hi guys, i recently migrated from loader v1.023 (3617xs, DSM 6.1.7) to loader v1.04b (918+, DSM 6.2.1) and successfully migrated my data without using any custom extra.lzma. I am using an ASRock J4105 with an Intel 1000CT and a valid SN and MAC addresses. VT-D is disabled in the BIOS but the output of cat /usr/syno/etc/codec/activation.conf differs slightly: {"success":true,"activated_codec":["aac_dec","aac_enc","h264_dec","h264_enc","hevc_dec","ac3_dec"],"token":"5da51973db56e3f7457a4d8a259d1f00"} I am missing the "hevc_enc", "vc1_dec","vc1_enc" here. /dev/dri does exist. /dev/dri$ ls card0 renderD128 I played around with tvheadend server and wanted to use HEVC transcoding, unfortunately tvheadend is "unable to open hevc_vaapi encoder". Anyone got a clue for me? Edited January 15, 2020 by Timmey22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamamma Posted January 17, 2020 Share #206 Posted January 17, 2020 Hi I'm on asrock j3455 but I don't have at all the folder "codec" in the "/usr/syno/etc/" Could someone explain me why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badbad2000 Posted January 20, 2020 Share #207 Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) Hi i have running fine with LSI LSI 9207-8i and a 2 port 1G card. But recently I changed the network card to a X550-T2 10G card, it caused the LSI crashed or not detected. If both are in, my hdd and volume will not show. but the 10G interfaces all ok. If I removed the 10G card, the LSI is ok. If I run the synology on top of esxi 6.7 I can detected both card. But after i passthru them, the LSI will crashed after sometime and become not passthru again. I changed to run bare metal, as long as the X550 card is in, my volume cant be detected, I only managed to get it detected once but after reboot is gone again. Any idea? how should I troubleshoot this? - DSM version prior update: DSM 6.2.2 - Loader version and model: v1.04b - 918+ - Using custom extra.lzma: NO - Installation type: BAREMETAL - mb: asrock z370m pro4 cpu: i7-8700 LSI 9207-8i X550-T2 network card Additional comments: volume not detected, LSI not working after change to X550-T2.

premikkoci Posted January 20, 2020 Share #208 Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) Hi, I found these files in cd /dev/dri card0 and renderD128 . Using cat /usr/syno/etc/codec/activation.conf command i got this: {"success":true,"activated_codec":["aac_dec","aac_enc","ac3_dec","hevc_dec","h26 4_dec","h264_enc","mpeg4part2_dec","vc1_dec","vc1_enc"],"token":"e12d2eb91847807 19a966f8d9f93e0dc"}. I have a 20mbps bitrate h264 movie transcoded (to low quality) offline via video station and the estimated time to finish as about 50 minuttes (The hateful eight). Also watch a same bitrate movie online via plex at the same time. No buffering at all. My CPU usage goes upto 90 % for a couple of seconds then down to 10 - 30 % for like 10 - 20 seconds and keeps repeating. Can anyone tell me how can i recognize if its sw or hw transcoding? I have asrock j4105 and 6.2.1 Thank for any help Edited January 20, 2020 by premikkoci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran mine with a i5-9600K. (6.22 918+ 1.04b) xpenology was fine, but, at that time at least, plex didn't support hw transcoding on it correctly, so I swapped it for an i3-8100, and since moved to an overclocked i3-8350K. no changes were required anywhere in xpenology.

The_Dave Posted January 28, 2020 Share #213 Posted January 28, 2020 @Olegin I have the same ASRock J4105-ITX that you have and can't get hw transcode to work with the latest dsm. As it seems that you're also not running hw transcode on your system, I wonder if it's even possible right now. Could someone halp me on that?

Captainfingerbang Posted January 31, 2020 Share #214 Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) Hello, Thanks again for this guide ive been able to get transcoding working on a couple of machines. i can confirm this works great with both i3-8100 and i5-8400 coffee lake cpus I just want to ask, since i am building a new machine, would an i5-6500 with Intel HD 530 graphics work for this? My reasons for the question are because i could not get this to work on Intel hd/uhd 610 (g4560), so i went for intel hd 630 and that worked. But i have not tested on intel 530 graphics, plan to purchase cpu with hd 530, but have read 530 only has support for 8 bit hevc transcodes. Will that effect anything with this?

ruffpl Posted March 1, 2020 Share #219 Posted March 1, 2020 Hi. I am using Xeon e52673v3 2,4ghz/4.0 turbo, 12 core/24 threads with Xpenology as Virtual Machine. I want to make new install of it- will DSM918 platform be better to use for transcoding or DS3617 because it can use more threads than 918?
