I have encountered the same problem with Ubuntu 22.04: “system VCN FW Encode interface version=1.19, expected version=1.20”
It seems that the Linux-firmware shipped with Ubuntu can be too old for the AMD GPU driver
The solution is to update the firmware for my Renoir APU:
$ git clone –depth 1 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git
$ sudo cp linux-firmware/amdgpu/renoir_* /lib/firmware/amdgpu/
$ sudo update-initramfs -u
After that I verified that the driver loads the firmware it wants:
$ sudo dmesg |grep VCN
[drm] Found VCN firmware Version ENC: 1.20 DEC: 5 VEP: 0 Revision: 3
Now I got hardware encoding acceleration:
$ grep VCE .nx/node/C-*/session
Info: Using VCE hardware encoder
I am not getting glitches nor lockups with the latest AMD GPU driver as of right now.
apt show amdgpu
Package: amdgpu
Version: 1:5.4.50405-1577590.22.04
Here’s the Trouble Report with the workaround
https://knowledgebase.nomachine.com/TR08S10329I am having the same problem and those commands do not fix the problem. Re-installation and re-enabling nxnode accessibility permissions won’t fix it either. Intel MacOS 11.6 NoMachine 7.6.2
Yes. As a reference, for this server version 7.3.2 these are paths that it is looking for. The symbolic links will make it happy.
strings /usr/NX/lib/*.so | grep mediasdk mediasdk/lib64 /opt/intel/mediasdk/plugins/plugins.cfg /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib64For the most recent Ubuntu distributions and Debian 11 these commands were necessary to enable hardware acceleration via Intel’s QuickSync on the NoMachine node server:
sudo apt install <i>intel-media-va-driver-non-free libmfx1</i>
sudo mkdir -p /opt/intel/mediasdk/plugins
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib64
sudo ln -s /usr/share/mfx/plugins.cfg /opt/intel/mediasdk/plugins/plugins.cfg
