I really appreciate your efforts on improving hardware support for the loaders, and if there is anyway I can encourage you to continue on the 3615/17 (1.03b) modules - I am specifically looking for the hpsa module. I have a lot of different hardware, and would gladly assist in testing for you. I just found the threads on building the modules/extra.lzma, so if you are 100% done working on 3615/17 I can go that route on compiling and creating a custom extra.lzma. Thank you for everything you've done so far (and continue to do). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hostilian Posted December 2, 2019 Share #78 Posted December 2, 2019 @vlaser How warm is your j3455-itx? Mine is in a case that's got holes like swiss-cheese AND I have a fan that blows onto the CPU heatsink (and hard drives).. I don't do transcoding yet.. Not sure what the point is - I play in whatever resolution the movie is already encoded in.. That might change once I'm forced to buy a 4K TV.. Though I'll see what difference, if any, it makes.. Have you tried different types of files for transcoding etc? Also, how does the CPU/RAM behave when you're doing it? It might also be DSM itself, ya know.. The latest Video Station update has a fix for "video transcoding failures".. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wickedgtr Posted December 3, 2019 Share #80 Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) Maybe I am missing it, but I dont see any download for a extra.lzma for loader 1.03b at all. Only for 1.04 and 1.02 - I did try insmod the hpsa.ko that is in the 1.04b loader: insmod: ERROR: could not insert module hpsa.ko: Invalid module format Not sure where to go from here. checked dmesg - its the from kernel version - again maybe I am missing the correct download for extra.lzma hpsa: version magic '4.4.59+ SMP preempt mod_unload ' should be '3.10.105 SMP mod_unload ' Edited December 3, 2019 by wickedgtr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riverflow Posted December 3, 2019 Share #81 Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) Thanks for your great work. I'm using DSM 6.2.2 (DS918+) under Proxmox, so I really need VIRTIO drivers for 10G communication and fast DISK IO access. Could you add all VIRTIO drivers(virtio_net, virtio_scsi, virtio_blk..)? I compiled and added VIRTIO drivers under DSM 6.1.7. but under DSM 6.2.2, didn't load VIRTIO drivers. sorry for poor english Edited December 3, 2019 by riverflow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver251 Posted December 3, 2019 Share #82 Posted December 3, 2019 Hello, just a question, i did not see it working anywhere but i would like to verify by myself... Is there a way to hace hyper-v nic to work? I tried some days ago and i finally moved to VirtualBox since i was not able to get any lan to work, i tried dda to passthrough nics but i dont know if still need to do something on guest or my AMD platform has some virtualization issues with hyper-v.

The latest Video Station update has a fix for "video transcoding failures".. Hi, mine is in the Thermaltake Core V1 Mini ITX Cube case (front fan speed is set at 20% in the bios) so j3455-itx is pretty cool. I think hw transcoding feature is required and critical for online streamers only and probably it is used by 1% of all users. All smart TVs (I've got LG, Samsung and Panasonic) can play all formats without any transcoding. Smartphones can do the same. You just need to install and use VLC player. HW transcoding always fails on my j3455-itx and even with the latest VS update. I have tried all possible extras I found on this forum. SW transcoding works fine. CPU loading depends on original file codec/bitrate and it is between 20% to 95% for 1 stream/file. Anyway, I disabled hw transcoding in Video Station and Media Server. If I ever need to transcode a video file, I can use offline sw transcoding in Video Station, then I can play transcoded mp4 file at any device and at any time.

wickedgtr Posted December 16, 2019 Share #97 Posted December 16, 2019 IG-88 - Thank you again for your efforts - I currently have a DS3515xs VMware VM running version DSM 6.2.2-24922 Update 2 (kernel 3.10.105) -- can I just swap the extra.lzma with the one in your download and reboot? I can snapshot the 'loader' disk and try if, was just curious since I am already on 24992 build if I just need to change the extra file. Thanks!

IG-88 Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share #98 Posted December 16, 2019 not much you could win by that, maybe a little more ntwork performace by using vmxnet as nic? but you could also extract that driver, copy it to your system load it with insmod and test it you would also need to snapshot the other disks as the loader copys the contend (driver) from the extra.lzma to your system partition (lib/modules/update) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wickedgtr Posted December 16, 2019 Share #99 Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) I am using HW pass-though for the disk controllers, including now a HP H240 as I have run out of SATA ports, and it was cheaper than (already had it) and the bios wouldnt detect any of the LSI based controllers - I basically have a HP Z220 workstation running 3 VMs, XPenology, Plex (HW Passthough GTX 1060) and a MineOS on one box. ESXi boots from a USB stick, then the datastore is a old/very slow NVMe disk, hosting the 3 VMs including the XPenology loader drive. I tested it with the extra file replaced, and it never responded to pings, reverted snapshot, and it came back online. copying out the hpsa.ko and using insmod hpsa.ko does successfully load the module, but I cant see the disks attached or an additional scsi controller is /sys/bus/scsi/devices/ Edited December 16, 2019 by wickedgtr added more info - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
