Media Playback Issues - Zachary Drake - 2024-02-08

Running JellyFin 10.8.13 on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and running into some media playback issues. Below are the specs for the MacMini I used for this setup.

I am thinking I just don't have something set correctly but really not sure.

JellyFin and FFmpeg logs attached, but this part of the FFmpeg log stood out to me:

Stream mapping:
  Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (hevc (native) -> h264 (h264_vaapi))
  Stream #0:1 -> #0:1 (aac (native) -> aac (libfdk_aac))
Press [q] to stop, [?] for help
[hevc @ 0x558dd9b072c0] No support for codec hevc profile 2.

Impossible to convert between the formats supported by the filter 'Parsed_setparams_0' and the filter 'auto_scale_0'

Which CPU is in your Mac Mini? I'm assuming a fairly old Intel CPU.

Sorry not sure why my system info screenshot didn't stick.

Model: Apple Inc. Macmini7,1 (mid 2014)
Memory: 16.0 GiB
Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-4278U CPU @ 2.60GHz × 4
Graphics: Mesa Intel® Iris® Graphics 5100 (HSW GT3)

IIRC, new users can't post images.

That iGPU does not support accelerated HEVC decoding. In the Playback dashboard, uncheck HEVC so that the CPU decodes the video.

That resolved the issue thank you! Stinks because if my CPU has to do all the work it means less simultaneous streams but it is working really well for just using what I already had lying around my house. Super happy with JellyFin so far - its a bit of work to set up and I had to expand my linux knowledge a bit, but having a 100% self-hosted solution is totally worth it.

Thanks for the help!
