Intel N95 iGPU passthough - dngn_mstr - 2025-05-17
Hi All,
I am new to the world of Jellyfin so please be kind.
I am running Proxmox on a mini pc with an intel N95. I currently have an unprivileged LXC container running Jellyfin on Debian 12. I am trying to use the N95s iGPU for jellyfin hardware acceleration.
There are a lot of tutorials around, but I have not found one that has worked for me. The Jellyfin documentation is also a little confusing for someone who is new to this: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/post-install/transcoding/hardware-acceleration/intel
If anyone can set me in the right direction, it would be appreciated.

Have you seen the part that applies directly to your setup? Is there a portion that confuses you the most?

I gotta say that I see a lot of folks pick a pretty complex setup when they're new to the game and it's mind-boggling. In terms of complexity (personal opinion):
Bare metal < docker < Synology/NAS < other unsupported distros < other virtualization
The more layers and restrictions you add, the more issues you're bound to encounter.

I have tried adding the renderd128 file in the resources section. However, I’m not sure if I’m doing the right command when searching for the GID to put into the advance settings.
With the mixed information out there it’s pretty hard to know where to start with this stuff. However, I would never go for a synology nas as there’s nothing to learn from something with pre configured software. Best way to work things out is to be thrown in the deep end.
