SOLVED: FFmpeg

2 FPS is kind of low.  The 7500T should be able to tone map at an acceptable rate like maybe 30-40FPS.  How much memory is your iGPU being allocated (this is a BIOS setting IIRC)?  Tone mapping is VRAM intensive.

The cheapest option might be to throw in a GPU?  If you have a 10 series Nvidia GPU laying around, that would work great.  Intel Arc GPUs are dirt cheap and super fast for transcoding.

I don't know If I can get into bios on a LXC but I used 

Code:

LC_ALL=C lspci -v | grep -EA10 "3D|VGA" | grep 'prefetchable'

on the LXC and got 

Code:

[size=256M]

Thanks for the advice, sadly I selled my 1080 weeks ago, but I'm looking forward to one of those Arc GPU's.
