I'm not sure if you're considering a VM like Proxmox or bare metal, but for beginners, I recommend starting with bare metal. License subscription is a prerequisite for HW acceleration in Plex. The mention of @Bullseye may seem like there is a problem with the SA6400's i915, but that is not the case. This may be because he did not meet various conditions for transcoding. Quote

Peter Suh Posted March 1 #32 Posted March 1 [ SA6400 Intel 3rd generation i3-3220T installation success (transcoding success) ] I have not seen any test results for SA6400 and H/W transcoding with Intel 3rd generation or lower, so I tested it myself. The test result with Intel 3rd generation i3-3220T was successful. Jellyfin H/W transcoding was successful as follows. I apologize that the Jellyfin status window is written in Korean. It means that the transcoding is working well. And, additionally, I tested it with Intel 2nd generation G840. The environment for H/W transcoding seems to be the same, but I could not proceed with the test anymore because the playback window stopped on Jellyfin, which is the only one I can test. I would appreciate it if you could give me feedback on additional tests where Plex or other H/W transcoding is possible. 1 Quote
IG-88 Posted March 1 #33 Posted March 1 1st would be to check what the hardware in theory is capable of, this link is still useful https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Quick_Sync_Video#Hardware_decoding_and_encoding (interestingly latest hardware does not support all types of encoding like mpeg2 or vc-1/vp8 is not supported for decoding) 1 Quote

Checking other potential issues before taking the plunge. Quote
shibby Posted April 9 #39 Posted April 9 Hi, I`m using 13gen CPU, Proxmox and Xpenology SA6400 on Arc Loader. I have iGPU (IOMMU) passthrough to VM. iGPU is detected under DSM and Plex HW transcoding works great But i want to use DKMS module for iGPU. I have already installed on proxmox and its looking good but on Xpenology VM VGA is not working iGPU is not shows in Contol Panel info page and HW Transcoding in Plex does not work. How can i fix it? I tried móve loader from Arc do RR but it doesnt change at all Quote
shibby Posted April 17 #40 Posted April 17 @MoetaYuko @Peter Suh any idea why it`s not working for me? Quote
ed_co Posted May 17 #41 Posted May 17 Do the "Radeon Graphics" iGPU included in some Ryzen processors (7000 and 9000 series) work with SA6400 in any way for hardware transcoding or if going to the AMD route it has to be paired with a nVidia card? Thanks Quote

Thanks The i915 module only works on Intel iGPUs. I think you're misunderstanding this because the sa6400/epyc7002 are AMD-based platforms. The epyc7002 is AMD-based, but it's been hacked to use the i915 backport to allow the Intel iGPU to be used for H/W transcoding. 1 Quote

No in this case I have the things clear regarding intel GPU and i915 module, but I was thinking, the same way there is a i915 module for Intel iGPUs, maybe there is another module for Radeon iGPUs.

So does anyone know if theres a working driver or extra lzma for sa6400 7.2.2 and 14th gen? uhd 770 Quote
Captainfingerbang Posted September 24 #45 Posted September 24 I went ahead and found that one person's i-915 the bin and the KO for the back port for 14th and turn them into an extra lzma. But I've only attempted this on z690 and there's so many terrible bios settings I just get frustrated and give up but maybe I should post that extra lzma for 13/14th Gen Intel? Is anybody even interested? Quote

Peter Suh Posted October 20 #47 Posted October 20 (edited) Currently, the only solution to enable hardware transcoding on the WTR Pro N150 is to use Ubuntu 24.04.02 or 24.04.03 with kernel 6.9 or later installed on Proxmox LXC. Only in this case will /dev/dri be enabled on the latest n150 (Twin Lake) CPUs. Supporting this requirement on Epyc7002 (sa6400)/baremetal with kernel 5.10 is currently not feasible. The following script exists for easy transcoding within LXC. [Plex] bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/ct/plex.sh)" [Jellyfin] bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PeterSuh-Q3/ProxmoxVE/main/ct/jellyfin.sh)" Edited October 20 by Peter Suh Quote
