Processor Brands and Jellyfin - JPHARE - 2025-02-06

I recently set up a JF server on my Windows PC. The two installer file options were "AMD" and "ARM." I have an Intel based processor, but I chose the AMD installer to see what would happen. Things LOOK like they are working, but can anyone tell me why there is not an Intel version?

In this case, "AMD" refers to the instruction set "AMD64". While Intel created the x86 instruction set, AMD created the 64-bit extension x86-64. And is often referred to as "AMD64" instead of x86-64.

Both Intel and AMD use the AMD64 instruction set so you'd get the "AMD" download if you have an Intel CPU.
