Hardware acceleration on docker Intel arc a380 - sthtyekujetyk - 2024-01-12

I have been following this guide

My setup: proxmox ve --> debian VM --> docker --> jellyfin

What kernel is proxmox and debian running?

You've setup GPU passthrough from Proxmox to Debian? Pretty sure you did this if the Debian VM can see the devices.

RE: Hardware acceleration on docker Intel arc a380 - sthtyekujetyk - 2024-01-12

Proxmox kernel is 6.5.11-4-pve
Debian kernel is 6.5.0-0.deb12.4-amd64

Yes I setup gpu passtrough

RE: Hardware acceleration on docker Intel arc a380 - TheDreadPirate - 2024-01-12

Do you have an Intel CPU in your system?

RE: Hardware acceleration on docker Intel arc a380 - sthtyekujetyk - 2024-01-12

Ryzen 9 7900, if you want to try to passthrough the other GPU it's a no-go. Proxmox host crashes immediately

RE: Hardware acceleration on docker Intel arc a380 - TheDreadPirate - 2024-01-12

Enable Low Power Encoding in the jellyfin settings. The docs say it is required by Arc.

RE: Hardware acceleration on docker Intel arc a380 - sthtyekujetyk - 2024-01-13

It still crashes

RE: Hardware acceleration on docker Intel arc a380 - sthtyekujetyk - 2024-01-13

I did everything in that guide until the driver installation section
Since i am running linux 6.5 I think there is no need to install additional drivers right?
Are the last few lines of the last code section in my first message normal/expected?

RE: Hardware acceleration on docker Intel arc a380 - sthtyekujetyk - 2024-01-14

Solved it myself!

The solution was to:

- Install firmware-linux-nonfree from non-free apt repository
- Download dg2_huc_gsc.bin from here and copy it in /lib/firmware/i915/dg2_huc_gsc.bin
  I have no idea why was this missing
- Instead of running docker exec -it jellyfin /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg -v verbose -init_hw_device vaapi=va -init_hw_device opencl@va
  I ran docker exec -it jellyfin /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg -v verbose -init_hw_device vaapi=va:/dev/dri/renderD128 -init_hw_device opencl@va

Now it transcodes correctly
