I'm running Unraid 6.9.2 on an Intel J4105. I've been trying to get HW transcoding in Plex to work correctly, with mixed results. h264 seems to work fine but HEVC/h265 doesn't seem to be working.
Here are the steps I've taken so far:
Added "modprobe i915" and "chmod -R 777 /dev/dri" to go file.
Added "--device=/dev/dri:/dev/dri" as extra parameter for Plex container.
Installed plugin "Intel GPU TOP".
Enabled HW transcoding in Plex server settings.
The attached screenshots are from Plex dashboard, Unraid CPU and GPU usage, Tautulli and the file information in Plex. The last screenshot is CPU/GPU usage while transcoding a h264 file, which seems to utilize the GPU.
What I'm concerned about is the GPU usage seems to be very low while CPU usage is high (see attached screenshot), which I feel like would indicate that something isn't right, as HW transcoding should utilize Intel QuickSync? Or is my setup too weak to transcode this file?
