Hardware Transcoding

[taliaferro]

Code:

sudo apt -t bookworm-backports install linux-image-6.6.13+bpo-amd64

reboot, and the newly installed kernel should boot by default. If not, just select it from the grub menu.

Aha! I missed your reply -- that would explain why it worked in VLC but not the web player, it probably is the tone mapping..

I've downgraded to kernel 6.6.13, but unfortunately, it still won't play in the browser. It started complaining about a missing OpenCL runtime, so I installed intel-opencl-icd. Now it still crashes due to a "fatal player error" but there's no longer any indication of why in the logs? When I run the same command, I see the following error:

Abort was called at 349 line in file:
./shared/source/os_interface/linux/drm_neo.cpp

(That appears in stderr, hence why it's not in the logs.)


Thank you again for your help -- I feel like I'm close to a solution!
