For a while now I use Handbrake in combination with the Media SDK for transcoding videos quickly with the QuickSync hardware accelerator if needed. But I think for already a few Win10 updates it's not working anymore. Handbrake 1.0.7 is just crashing before I could even take a look into the activity logs, while 0.10.3 (which I'm using because of the AAC FDK encoder since the FFMPEG one is crap) isn't exactly crashing, but it isn't reallydoing anything else either and the encoding log stays at [spoiler] HandBrake 0.10.3.0 - 64bit Version OS: Microsoft Windows NT 6.2.9200.0 - 64bit CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4210U CPU @ 1.70GHz Ram: 8076 MB, GPU Information: Intel(R) HD Graphics Family - 20.19.15.4531 Screen: 1366x768 Temp Dir: C:\Users\Richa\AppData\Local\Temp\ Install Dir: C:\Program Files\Handbrake Data Dir: C:\Users\Richa\AppData\Roaming\HandBrake Team\HandBrake\0.10.3.0 ------------------------------------------- CLI Query: -i "D:\Filme\Within Temptation - Black Symphony - Bonuskonzert.mkv" -t 1 --angle 1 -c 1-12 -o "D:\Filme\Within Temptation - Black Symphony - Bonuskonzert qsv.mkv" -f mkv --deinterlace="fast" --crop 0:0:0:0 --strict-anamorphic --modulus 2 -e qsv_h264 -b 5000 --cfr -a 1,2 -E copy,flac24 -6 none,5point1 -R Auto,48 -B 0,160 -D 0,0 --gain 0,0 --aname="Stereo,5.1" --audio-fallback ac3 --markers="C:\Users\Richa\AppData\Local\Temp\Within Temptation - Black Symphony - Bonuskonzert qsv-1-chapters.csv" --encoder-preset=quality --verbose=1 [21:16:02] hb_init: starting libhb thread HandBrake 0.10.3 (2016012200) - MinGW x86_64 - https://handbrake.fr 4 CPUs detected Opening D:\Filme\Within Temptation - Black Symphony - Bonuskonzert.mkv...

No problems if I don't explicitly use H.264 qsv. So Handbrake itself seems to see qsv because of tthe Media SDK, but somehow can't use it. I have already reinstalled the Media SDK, even tried the 2016 version but no change. Also installing with Windows' compatibility settings didn't do anything. One thing I noticed is that Intel writes on https://software.intel.com/en-us/media-sdk/choose-download/client about a INTELMEDIASDK_WINSDK_PATH which would be initialised after installation, but it isn't showing up where all the other PATH variables are. Also manually setting it like described here https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/samples/tree/master/samples doesn't make really sense since Windows can fidn that opencl.dll only in C:\Windows\system32\ and that folder is already a system variable as %SystemRoot%\system32 I also found a Tool for system analyses that seems to ship inside the SDK installer, but that isn't really helping either: [hide] Intel(R) Media Server Studio 2017 - System Analyzer (64-bit) The following versions of Media SDK API are supported by platform/driver [opportunistic detection of MSDK API > 1.23]: Version Target Supported Dec Enc 1.0 HW Yes X X 1.0 SW Yes X X 1.1 HW Yes X X 1.1 SW Yes X X 1.2 HW Yes X X 1.2 SW Yes X X 1.3 HW Yes X X 1.3 SW Yes X X 1.4 HW Yes X X 1.4 SW Yes X X 1.5 HW Yes X X 1.5 SW Yes X X 1.6 HW Yes X X 1.6 SW Yes X X 1.7 HW Yes X X 1.7 SW Yes X X 1.8 HW Yes X X 1.8 SW Yes X X 1.9 HW Yes X X 1.9 SW Yes X X 1.10 HW Yes X X 1.10 SW Yes X X 1.11 HW Yes X X 1.11 SW Yes X X 1.12 HW Yes X X 1.12 SW Yes X X 1.13 HW Yes X X 1.13 SW Yes X X 1.14 HW Yes X X 1.14 SW Yes X X 1.15 HW Yes X X 1.15 SW Yes X X 1.16 HW Yes X X 1.16 SW Yes X X 1.17 HW Yes X X 1.17 SW Yes X X 1.18 HW Yes X X 1.18 SW Yes X X 1.19 HW Yes X X 1.19 SW Yes X X 1.20 HW No 1.20 SW Yes X X 1.21 HW No 1.21 SW Yes X X 1.22 HW No 1.22 SW Yes X X 1.23 HW No 1.23 SW Yes X X Graphics Devices: Name Version State Intel(R) HD Graphics Family 20.19.15.4531 Active System info: CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4210U CPU @ 1.70GHz OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Arch: 64-Bit Installed Media SDK packages (be patient...processing takes some time): Intel(R) Media SDK 2017 R1 Installed Media SDK DirectShow filters: Installed Intel Media Foundation Transforms: Intel(R) Hardware M-JPEG Decoder MFT : {00C69F81-0524-48C0-A353-4DD9D54F9A6E} Intel(R) Hardware VP8 Sync Decoder MFT : {451E3CB7-2622-4BA5-8E1D-44B3C41D0924} Intel(R) Hardware VP8 Decoder MFT : {6D856398-834E-4A89-8EE5-071BB3F58BE4} Analysis complete...

I mean it wasn't any update of Handbrake or the Media SDK that broke anything since it just stopped working. PS: it seems UBB code isn't supported here so I have no idea how to hide those huge outputs. But I colored it so at least it's a visible difference
