Like to know more about LiveSourceContent.HardwareDecodingStatus

Hi,

I will like to know for LiveSourceContent.HardwareDecodingStatus in JPEGLiveSource, is there a way to force the HardwareDecodingStatus to run in ‘hardware’. Currently, we are always running on ‘ipp’ when we have GPU in our System.

Thanks

The JPEGLiveSource will per default use Hardware decoding.

The default is

const string VideoOS.Platform.EnvironmentOptions.OptionHardwareDecodingModeAuto = “Auto”

My suspicion would be that hardware decoding is attempted but the fall back to other methods kicks in.

I would try to install the Smart Client and troubleshoot if it can use hardware decoding. Use the Hardware Acceleration Guide to troubleshoot. https://milestonedownload.blob.core.windows.net/files/XProtect%202017%20R2/Manuals%20and%20guides/Smart%20Client/Guides%20and%20documents/Hardware%20acceleration%20guide/MilestoneXProtectSmartClient_HardwareAccelerationGuide_en-US.pdf
