April 23, 20215 yr Can someone tell us how is it working? adding the options i915 force_probe=4c8a options i915 enable_guc=2 Will provide full hw transcoding support? what works and what don't?? Edited April 23, 20215 yr by arturovf spelling
April 26, 20215 yr Thank you @xXx, can you tell me Plex-wise what is working and what isn't? I mean I guess tonemapping is not yet working right?

May 5, 20215 yr Hi, I'm kind of a newbie in here and to further complicate things, I recently bought an Intel 11500 for my Unraid server. Can I enable the iGPU for Plex transcoding within the Stable version (6.9.2) or do I need to be on the beta version? If so, could anybody guide me on the process? Thank you,

Create a file on your UNRAID flash drive under /boot/config/modprobe.d called i915.conf 2. paste the following code in the conf file you created options i915 force_probe=4c8a options i915 enable_guc=2 3. Reboot your server and you should be able to turn on Plex transcoding in your docker No need to update your UNRAID version Edited May 9, 20215 yr by lukerv4 added stme steps for the other user to get them up and running with their new CPU

May 18, 20215 yr Many 4K movies now play with HDR tonemapping using HW transcoding. But unfortunately also many don't and show artifacts. I really hope it's a Linux kernel issue. Was just switching over to a full 4K library. For now tonemapping stays off. This is on a 11500.
May 20, 20215 yr thnx a lot for this topic. my intern graphics intel i5 11400 runs now for plex hw transcoding. the only one what i found out is that the direct connected server monitor goes black. the command prompt is no more visible. any solution for that?

I'm using Intel i5-11500 and I've done as instructed but unraid will not boot and will get stuck at "switching to inteldrmfb from efi vga" and will just stuck there forever Edited May 29, 20215 yr by fahmietalife
May 29, 20215 yr Update: i have to remove the thumbdrive and plug in to my laptop and manually remove i915.conf file, then i am able to boot to unraid. Appreciate someone that can advise me as i really need hardware transcoding to work.

June 1, 20215 yr Today i update to latest BIOS firmware version May 2021 from Gigabyte website, but still having the same issue.
