RDP breaks my transcoding - Baralis - 2025-07-28
[*]Jellyfin 10.10.7
Windows 10 pro
Install: Windows installer
Hosted on:
[*]4770k (IGPU disabled)
AMD RX 6600
[*]32gig ram
Everything seems to work correctly until I log into my server with Windows Remote Desktop. As long as I remain logged in using RDP all is fine but if I have connected using RDP and then close RDP any transcoding fails to initialize my GPU after that or at least that is what I think is happening.
This is the error it gives:
[AVHWDeviceContext @ 0000024c2f737080] Using device 1002:73ff (AMD Radeon RX 6600).
[AVHWDeviceContext @ 0000024c2f7a3c00] No matching devices found.
Device creation failed: -19.
Failed to set value 'opencl=ocl@dx11' for option 'init_hw_device': No such device
Error parsing global options: No such device
Im probably missing something stupid simple to circumvent this but im coming up blank. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Make sure you have followed each of the items in this section of the documentation.
https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/post-install/transcoding/hardware-acceleration/amd/#configure-on-windows-host
Windows may update the GPU driver for you, which may cause problems. Also, if the iGPU is no longer used, make sure its driver is uninstalled cleanly.

Thank you for the reply.
I did follow those directions when setting up and disabled the hardware graphics in the remote host. I also uninstalled all GPU drivers using DDU and installed fresh RX 6600 drivers. I also disabled the IGPU in the bios so that windows didnt try installing drivers or using it. The problem persists.
