Jellyfin NVIDIA Hardware Decoding issues on TrueNAS Scale 24.10.2. - mmatt - 2025-02-10
Okay… I’ve installed Jellyfin through the TrueNAS community app, I’ve edited my user_config.yml to include the right UUID for the GPU. And I’ve enabled hardware decoding in the Jellyfin dashboard. But when it tries to transcode to a lower bitrate, it crashes the player and spits out a generic ffmpeg error. I’ve looked at literally everything and I still have no clue.
Code:

Can you please share the jellyfin ffmpeg logs generated after the crash?
Please share them using a site like pastebin.com
Would you also be able to share the yaml file you used just in case?
As for using an Nvidia GPU on Truenas Scale, read this too: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/truenas#nvidia-gpus-on-scale-v2410

Where can I find these logs. The only logs I can access (as far as I'm aware) is Jellyfin's container logs.

Do you mean the docker compose yaml? I don't have that, but its whatever is included in the community app on TrueNAS scale.

You would find the ffmpeg logs located in the Jellyfin dashboard under the log section.
You can click on any of the logs and it will open on a new browser window.
Just copy the ffmpeg logs of the failed stream and share them with us.

RE: Jellyfin NVIDIA Hardware Decoding issues on TrueNAS Scale 24.10.2. - Efficient_Good_5784 - 2025-02-11
The issue is that the container doesn't have access to the Nvidia GPU drivers.
Code:
[AVHWDeviceContext @ 0x55ac4704b180] Cannot load libcuda.so.1
[AVHWDeviceContext @ 0x55ac4704b180] Could not dynamically load CUDA
Device creation failed: -1.
Failed to set value 'cuda=cu:0' for option 'init_hw_device': Operation not permitted
Error parsing global options: Operation not permittedYou need to figure out how to pass that into the container.
You also need to double check if you did the steps outlined in the Truenas release notes to install the Nvidia drivers (as they are not included by default anymore).
If you can't figure that out, you need to go ask for help on how to do so on the Truenas forums: https://forums.truenas.com/

Okay... I just had to reinstall the app. I feel silly now.
Basically I had installed Jellyfin before I installed the NVIDIA drivers. I installed the NVIDIA drivers and restarted the App Service. And yeah, the old app couldn't access the drivers I suppose.
