SOLVED: Help with transcoding

[Deegee88]

I’m running 6.8.0-31-generic
How did you get that screenshot? From the logs?
Mine are just the lines of code etc that I copy into sourcebin.
Only time I get anything close to that is if I click the (i) playback info in the dashboard.

In the player, click the gear in the bottom right and then playback info.

What is the output of the following commands.

Code:

sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/1/gt0/uc/guc_info
sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/1/gt0/uc/huc_info
grep i915 /var/log/dmesg*

[Deegee88]

sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/1/gt0/uc/guc_info:
https://sourceb.in/uRXB9D9MEL

sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/1/gt0/uc/huc_info
https://sourceb.in/00YE56xqjz

grep i915 /var/log/dmesg*
https://sourceb.in/2lCPQ31oH5

These are the only lines different from mine.

Code:

kernel: i915 0000:05:00.0: [drm] Cannot find any crtc or sizes

Do you have any ideas? Is this a firmware level issue or something else I'm not aware of? Does it matter if a display is connect to the card or not?

[Deegee88]

Hi guys - just wondering if there has been any further thoughts on this?
I've been having a look over the last couple of days but had no luck!

[TheDreadPirate]

Do you have a monitor plugged into the system?

[Deegee88]

Ummm no - in neither of the GPUs
I only access it remotely via SSH and don’t have the room to have it plugged into a monitor permanently.
Could that seriously be what’s stopping it from working properly?

[TheDreadPirate]

Maybe. I've heard that early firmware Intel Arc GPUs had weird behaviors when no monitor was plugged in. The problem is that easy firmware updates are only available in Intels Windows driver installer. I found a way Level1Techs thread for updating firmware in Linux, but haven't gotten around to trying it out.

[TheDreadPirate]

This process appears to work and is fairly straight forward.

Update at your own risk. As with all firmware flashes, loss of power during the process is very very bad.

One thing I almost missed was the "FW Data pack" download link.

FYI, I was able to update my A380 with this process.
