So with my hardware configuration:

• iMac19,1 SMBIOS
• i9-9900K - iGPU Disabled
• RX 580 8GB Pulse
• Catalina 10.15.4 beta 1
• Bootflag shikigva=80

I do have AppleTV, Netflix and Prime Video working fine. But VideoProc reports no H264 or HEVC hardware acceleration.
Is there any way I can enable hardware acceleration on the AMD RX 580 card without changing SMBIOS ?

Well... same issue when I use shikigva=128 in boot arguments. Maybe I need something else? InjectATI etc.?

Don't think so. So the only time you have this problem is when you use Plex? What does Videoproc show you for h264/hevc ?

Nope, even when I try to just load netflix.com. Clicking bookmark = dead. VideoProc shows hardware encoding with RX570 is enabled. Es ist jetzt nicht super wichtig fuer mich, aber es nervt mich. Besonders weil einmal alles funktionierte.
