Have an amazing Kodi media center!! Thanks Kodi Devs!
Quick question.
It a quad core AMD proc (860k) with an Nvidia 640. I am upgrading to a 4k TV soon and have a quick question about hardware acceleration.
1080p h264 - Hitting "O" tells me hardware encoding is enabled, cpu usage is low and hardware acceleration is on. EXPECTED
1080p h265 file - Hitting "O" tells me hardware encoding is ENABLED, cpu usage is low and hardware acceleration is on...... What I thought my 6xx series gpu did not do ANY h265 hardware encoding Is it because its possibly only 8-bit and 1080p? Still.. unexpected.....
4K h265 HDR - Hitting "O" tells me hardware encoding is DISABLED, Cpu usage is almost 100% and hardware acceleration is DISABLED. EXPECTED.
Why is my hardware acceleration enabled on 1080p h265 (not complaining, just have no idea how) and gpu wise, some are saying that all though a 1030 is a nice option and would probably allow me to now play 4k hdr h265, having a 4GB card like the 1050 TI would be better.
Any thoughts appreciated.
Thanks
*** Also, do you need windows 10 for 4k HDR hardware decode on a Pascal or does it work fine in 7?
