NVIDIA GPU pass through - Reprogram7701 - 2025-02-18
I have Jellyfin on Docker and am trying to run my NVIDIA GPU for hardware transcoding. It is properly installed onto my PVE host, passed through to the LXC container, and is properly passed through to the docker container. But jellyfin is just not utilizing it.

Is the video transcoding? Your GPU will only be utilized when the video needs to be transcoded. If the client can direct play the video, there will not be any CPU or GPU usage.
