HW transcoding in Plex not working (TCRP DSM 7.1)

Recommended Posts

I am trying to get HW transcoding working on my Xpenology NAS. I am running TCRP with DSM 7.1 (7.1-42661 Update 4). I am using a real serial/mac address (things like ddns are working fine).

 

I followed this guide when I was trying to make HW Transcoding work: https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2021/12/06/plex-in-docker-on-a-synology-nas-hardware-transcoding/

 

Everything seemed to work, the folder /dev/dri/ is present:

 

root@NAS:~$ sudo docker exec -it Plex sh
# ls /dev/dri
card0  renderD128

 

But whenever I transcode a movie, it isn't using HW transcoding (see attached file).

 

This is the hardware that I'm using:

- Processor: Intel Pentium G4560 Boxed
- MoBo: ASRock B250M Pro4
- Power supply: Mini-box picoPSU PicoPSU-160-XT
- RAM (8GB): Crucial CT8G4DFD8213

 

I am hoping that anyone here knows a solution to this problem.

what show your NAS with this command?

 

cat /usr/syno/etc/codec/activation.conf

 

You can force install codecs if you use Videstation and play with hw transcoding.

how to do that?

edit: I mean force install codecs on 7.1.1
I have seen transcoding on 6.x.x but never known 7x.x
