SOLVED: Help with Tone Mapping

[shotblocker]

Please let me know what information I need to get this troubleshoot started. I am a bit of a noob in this aspect.

Here is my latest transcode log for example.

https://pastebin.com/83J4g3CB

I enabled VPP tone mapping and left values at default. I also tried normal tone mapping and got the same issue. Disabling tone mapping allows me to transcode as normal.

Using iGPU for transcoding, CPU is Intel Celeron N3450.

Code:

docker exec -it jellyfin /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/vainfo

Jellyfin is running in docker, within a Proxmox LXC container (call that weird but its my setup).

Did you install the openCL mod in your docker compose?

[shotblocker]

Sorry for the late reply, I thought I had email notifications on. I do not have openCL in my compose.

Code:

version: "3.8"
services:
  jellyfin:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/jellyfin:latest
    container_name: jellyfin
    group_add:
      - "106"
    devices:
      - /dev/dri:/dev/dri
    ports:
      - 8096:8096
    environment:
      - TZ=Etc/UTC
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
    volumes:
      - /appdata/jellyfin:/config
      - /mnt/media/data/media:/data/media
      - /mnt/media/data/media/tv:/data/media/tv
      - /mnt/media/data/media/movies:/data/media/movies
    restart: unless-stopped

Would you be able to assist me in what I need to add?

[TheDreadPirate]

Add this to the environment section.

Code:

Installed opencl, yet all of my transcodes are logging conversion failed. I don't know a lot about codecs but all the 4k, UltraHD media I have is either H265, HEVC, or x265. Guessing the description of: "Tone-mapping can transform the dynamic range of a video from HDR to SDR while maintaining image details and colors, which are very important information for representing the original scene. Currently works only with 10bit HDR10, HLG and DoVi videos. This requires the corresponding GPGPU runtime," is relevant there.

So for example if I'm watching a 4k movie that needs to transcode, the picture is washed-out (versus directly playing on i.e. Jellyfin Media Player). If all my media is in a non-supported codec, does that mean I just can't enable tone-mapping and have to just live with the washed-out colors? Or am I missing something.

Code:

Stream mapping:
  Stream #0:0 (hevc) -> setparams:default
  Stream #0:15 (pgssub) -> scale:default
  overlay_qsv:default -> Stream #0:0 (h264_qsv)
  Stream #0:2 -> #0:1 (copy)

If I'm reading Intel's docs correctly, ApolloLake CPUs do not support HEVC 10-bit.  Which is needed for tone mapping.

I thought ApolloLake had Gen 9.5 graphics, which does support HEVC 10-bit, but it appears it has Gen 9 graphics.

Check if you have intel-gpu-tools installed.  If you do run intel_gpu_top and tell me what generation it reports.

Code:

sudo apt list --installed | grep intel-gpu-tools
sudo apt install intel-gpu-tools  #If it isn't already installed
sudo intel_gpu_top

   

If it does report "Gen9" instead of "Gen9.5" you are out of luck for HDR tone mapping.

I do I have intel-gpu-tools installed, and yes, sadly it reports Gen9. Looks like I'll eventually find a new host for my media server. For the time being I'll just have to deal with washed-out 4k videos on transcoding clients.
