You can try another kext, use NDRVShim.kext instead of replacing IONDRVSupport and IOGraphicsFamily post#1875.

 

Previous post updated here. It's better to use Kext Utility.app to install kexts.

Did you install it using Kext Utility.app or which method used?

Try running this after kexts are installed:

  Hide contents


sudo rm -f /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/kernelcache && sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions && sudo kextcache -u / && sudo update_dyld_shared_cache -force

 

 

@crazybirdy, badruzeus,

 

Thanks for the help.

 

Please bear this long post.

*I did fresh install patched geforce Tesla and added all kexts from 10.13.6, repaired permissions , rebuild cache-no acceleration.

*Replaced geforce Tesla by macrumour one -no acceleration.

*Added no compat check boot flag- no acceleration.

*Added and used Nvidia shim  kext- no acceleration.

 

*Installed kext by kpcm utility, ,kext utility, repaired permission and cache by terminal- no acceleration.

 

Then I used the post install patcher from dosdude using the settings as shown in the dark and light screen shots attached here- Full acceleration.

 

Please take look at screen shot showing the option I chose while using the patcher and suggest what changes I can do to do it without the dosdude patcher. Sip  Is already disabled as far as I know, legacy video card patch is what we are doing manually, is something related to bootplist and legacy usb support seems to make the acceleration functional.

How to attain this without the patcher.

 

I hope I am making sense.

Any suggestions.

Regarrds

Yes you can use MacX Video Converter Pro to check and see if it's active not see this post 

 

Addition:

Here's the link to the official web site for MacX Video Converter Pro you can use it in demo mode just to see if the Hardware Encoding Support is on or off.

The Video Converter Pro program records perfectly fine in full screen, just native one in Mojave doesn't.

I just tested the screen capture on my SandyBridge rig which has no iGPU, and the funny thing is that I get the same issue as you do, after a Kextcache rebuild it's working without an issue.

I'm not totally sure why but it's fixed on that rig as well.

The Thing is that even though there is no Hardware Encoding Support active on my SandyBridge but the Graphics is detected as you can see in the picture.

Things just got more complicated. :blink:

Are you doing this to re-build kextcache?

sudo kextcache -i /

No actually I'm using the app I made which does more than a simple cache rebuild. It resets the nvram, rebuilds caches and rebuilds the Prelinkedkernel as well. It's in my signature.

Just wanted to mention video recorder works perfectly fine for me here... No issues whatsoever. Since I did that trick with setting the iGPU as primary and booting off of the eGPU, I got no issues anymore. Preview and Quick Look work properly, and the full screen video recorder works, as well.

Yeah everything else works fine, just Display recording and only when trying to record in full screen. I have Xeon CPUs so no IGPU for me.

Are you using WEG?

Holy {censored}, what a spam here, I was hoping to find out what's new but it's hard to find something useful. Maybe it's better to split the topic and open another for installation, graphics ........ issues.

Have tried with WEG and without WEG and same thing, no change.

I have no iGPU on my SandyBridge either but things work out fine. However without WEG I have transparency issues so I guess WEG is playing a big role on helping to load  the correct framebuffer for my R0 270X GPU.

SIP, I set it like this.

	<key>RtVariables</key>
	<dict>
		<key>BooterConfig</key>
		<string>0x28</string>
		<key>CsrActiveConfig</key>
		<string>0x67</string>
	</dict>

Patched kexts uploaded to previous post here. All works fine here too. :yes:

macOS Mojave "MinStolenSize" / DVMT-prealloc Patches

 

@Sherlocks @PMheart i quoted you since im kinda new here and i noticed that you are one of the most active people on this forum (caught my attention).

 

I noticed that during the Beta updates, the "MinStolenSize" patches are changing from what we previously had / on previous betas, after examining the binary files of the 3 respective platforms: KabyLake, SkyLake, Broadwell i noticed that the:

on AppleIntelKBLGraphicsFramebuffer.kext

Find: 764648FF 05

Replace: EB4648FF 05

values should be enough as it's only in one place in the binary file with a HexFiend search, same for Skylake & Broadwell:

Find: 764048FF 05
Replace: EB404FF 05

on 2 of the binary files of the kexts if you try to search such result.

so lets take KabyLake as example from my previous post:

 


Kabylake:
Name: com.apple.driver.AppleIntelKBLGraphicsFramebuffer
Find: 764648FF 05225508
Replace: EB4648FF 05225508

from the code above on the binary file: 764648FF 05E25108 the code highlighted with red (which was present on previous betas of Mojave but kept changing during newer betas), is unnecessary as after verifying that the code: 764648FF 05 is present only once on KabyLake framebuffer binary file and we can replace it with: EB4648FF 05 this way the patch should be update proof "based on the fact that this part of code didn't change across betas.

 

So in short words the code after "05" is/was unncessary and the supposedly Update Proof Patches for:

macOS Mojave "MinStolenSize" / DVMT-prealloc Patches

 

 

KabyLake:

Comment: Disable minStolenSize less or equal fStolenMemorySize assertion, 10.14 Credits (Sniki)

Name: com.apple.driver.AppleIntelKBLGraphicsFramebuffer
Find: 764648FF 05
Replace: EB4648FF 05

 

 

SkyLake:

Comment: Disable minStolenSize less or equal fStolenMemorySize assertion, 10.14 Credits (Sniki)

Name: com.apple.driver.AppleIntelSKLGraphicsFramebuffer
Find: 764048FF 05
Replace: EB4048FF 05

 

 

Broadwell:

Comment: Disable minStolenSize less or equal fStolenMemorySize assertion, 10.14 Credits (Sniki)

Name: com.apple.driver.AppleIntelBDWGraphicsFramebuffer
Find: 764048FF 05
Replace: EB4048FF 05

 

Any patch for Haswell found please? 

Using Ozmosis bootloader with only IGPU, it can't boot unless i set 128 in DVMT, but in Mojave it doesn't show dynamic wallpapers, dark mode and other new things. Using clover no problem here, but i think i need the use of a patch for that Haswell IGPU.

Thanks

Guys, how to get hardware encoding and fix quick look issues?

 

my nVidia 9300GE is the same too on 10.13.6....., so, it could have no hardware encoding design in.:wallbash:

Hello everybody ¡¡¡

 

QuickTime Player and mp4 quick look preview not working in my rig. Someone facing issues with this app? Could be something related to hardware or installation?

 

Thanks in advance¡¡¡

 

Set the iGPU as primary in BIOS, and boot from the Dedicated GPU.

My post on it here:

I think I'll open a new thread for this so we can point people to it (in case it's not already opened somewhere).

 

Thread created here. 

It's far from being perfect. So if you have suggestions, feel free to comment over there and I'll try to add the new ideas/useful information to the main topic.

In my case, whenever I enable HDMI audio on the RX480 (no matter what method), quicktime stops working. iGPU is disabled, since it's unsupported anyways (Intel HD 2500)

Thank you arsradu!!! Just to mention that jpg preview is working in my hack since I applied this workaround some days ago in the following way: enable iGPU in bios + selected as secondary (primary for Radeon in pcie 1) + intelgraphicsfixup.kext in others folder (necessary to make it works) 

But this solution doesn't works for mp4 preview. 

Thanks for answering and opening dedicated tread!!!!

Thanks for answering, Nightf4ll!!! As you said, I have removed the HDMI audio enabler and quicktime and mp4 quick look preview starts working!!!! 

Obviously this is not the solution, but probably could help the Masters to find the right one, allowing activation of HDMI audio. 

 

Thanks again!!
