FFmpeg - MrFabou - 2024-02-25

I'm using Jellyfin 10.8.13 as a Linux Container in Proxmox with a i5 7500t and it's iGPU. 

It work's fine with 1080p content, but if I try to watch 4K Movies, it only works on my native 4K TV and PC with Google Chrome, not on a 1080p Display with a Google Chromecast 4K (Getting Client Side Error: "This client is not compatible with the media and the server is not sending a compatible media format.")

If its playing the movie (on my pc and 4k tv) it's showing the gpu usage by around 92%, so that's working.

I checked the logs and got a 204 FFmpeg Error: 

No VA display found for any default device. 
Device creation failed: -22. 
Failed to set value "vaapi=va:,kernel_driver=i915,driver=iHD" for option "init_hw_device": Invalid argument
Error parsing global options: Invalid argument

Hope you can help me out here, 

greetings

Follow the instructions in this link to add non-free and non-free-firmware to your apt config.

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/736065/how-do-i-install-non-free-firmware-in-debian-12-bookworm

Once you have done that

Code:
sudo apt update ; sudo apt install intel-media-va-driver-non-free intel-microcode

Thanks for the reply, sadly I get the same error even with microcode installed:

Did you install the non-free Intel media driver in the install command I provided? Your previous apt list only showed the free media driver, which doesn't contain the needed drivers.

Just to clarify, non-free in this context means the contents of the package aren't open source. Not that it costs money.

Sorry, now, yes. 

I installed "intel-media-va-driver-non-free/oldstable,now 21.1.1+ds1-1 amd64" on my proxmox server as you said, but now I can't even play the 4k footage on the chrome browser on my wqhd display

Or do I have to install it on the jellyfin container?

I tried to install it on the container, now if I run sudo apt list --installed | grep intel I got:

intel-gpu-tools/jammy,now 1.26-2 amd64 [installed]

Sadly it still doesn't play it Slightly-frowning-face

All I did was using a script to install and a youtube video that showed how to enable iGPU transcoding😅
Now I can't even play any video Slightly-frowning-face

EDIT: After restart I got it, again, to work in my browser, with the 4k chromecast it doesnt work.

Can you share what you have in /etc/pve/lxc/<CONTAINER_ID>.conf.
