Intel Hardware Acceleration Help - koko - 2023-12-07
I'm pretty new to Jellyfin and am having some issues watching media in the GUI using Unraid with hardware acceleration turned on - I'm using the linuxserver docker, turned on QSV and I can watch one file (tv show ripped from blu ray) but can't watch a movie (ripped from UHD disc). When I turn off hardware acceleration, everything works but the movie buffers quite a bit. Alternatively, everything also works when playing from the desktop app. I feel like the issue might have to do with ffmpeg or my parameters but I can't figure it out. I attached a message that is standing out from the ffmpeg log.
I've searched quite a bit and am having trouble understanding all the available info, any help is appreciated.

You need to use the opencl mod for the linuxserver docker image.

I added a variable and set the value as: DOCKER_MODS=linuxserver/mods:jellyfin-opencl-intel per the github, still running into the same issue. Do I need to set the key/am I not installing it right? No experience with gihub as well

What happens when you switch to the official jellyfin/jellyfin image? Our image includes all the needed Intel drivers.

Would I need to get the debian/ubuntu version from the downloads page? I don't understand the instructions...sorry I'm very new to all of this.
RE: Intel Hardware Acceleration Help - TheDreadPirate - 2023-12-07
No. You said you are using the linuxserver docker image. We have an official docker image that includes Intel's driver.
In Unraid, where you specify which image to use, you would change linuxserver/jellyfin to jellyfin/jellyfin.

Got it, I was confused about how to install the official image since it doesn't show up in the Unraid apps. I updated the jellyfin repository with what you said and updated the registry URL to match what's on the docker template readme on the github. Things seem to be working now, thanks very much for the help.
