H264/AVC Transcoding not Working - dvdvgl - 2025-03-22
Hi all,
I recently installed Jellyfin on casaOS Proxmox container. I follow your documentation to enable HWA on Intel GPU. I have an Intel N100 proc.
Here is my transcoding configuration in Jellyfin (sorry for the french version) :
I manage to make it work partially. For some videos I can see using intel_gpu_top command that the HWA is working (yeahhh) but for others it doing nothing. I noticed that it is not working when the video codec is H264 and AVC equel yes. Her is an exemple:
I spend a lot of time trying to find a solution by myself but I recon I failed.
What I'm doing wrong ?
David.

Transcoding, and thus GPU usage, only happens when the client needs it. If the client can directly play the video unmodified the server will simply send the file. No transcoding and, therefore, no GPU usage.
1080P H264 is very commonly supported by modern devices and will direct play on just about everything.

It makes sense.
Thanks
