Hardware Transcoding FFmpeg error, renderD128 - Zinic - 2024-03-21
After the third day of troubleshooting, I kneel before any who can help me!
Hardware Acceleration transcoding does not work for QSV and VAAPI. I've tried every solution online for the specific error I'm getting and nothing works. The solution for other people boiled down to a permissions issue. Specifically, this is my error:

sudo usermod -aG render apps <---- I try apps since jellyfin is part of the apps user/group.
sudo usermod -aG video apps
sudo chmod 666 /dev/dri/card0
sudo chmod 666 /dev/dri/renderD128In app settings, I added environmental "device" with value "/dev/dri
dev/dri"I've tried VAApi too and get the "No VA display found for device /dev/dri/renderD128." ffmpeg error
Why am I still having an issue with this FFmpeg error if I've given it permissions and a path to renderD128?

Can you switch from the community app to the official jellyfin/jellyfin docker image? Some users have had issues with getting the community app to properly use their GPUs. The official docker image has all the Intel drivers built in.

I tried setting up a custom app but it was too complicated. TrueNas removed the ability to manage your own docker recently. But I fixed the problem and hardware acceleration is working now. The problem was I didn't allocate any GPU. In the Resources Configuration section, I swore I didn't see any other option beside the default "Allocate 0 GPU". But now when I looked back, there are other options to choose from. I selected to allocate 1 GPU for Intel, and it works. 4 days now and this was it. So anticlimactic.

The GUI lets you pull any container image from any container repo on the internet (ie. Docker Hub, Github's ghcr.io, etc).
Once you have the image downloaded onto your Truenas server, you can launch and run custom apps with it. The catch is that (as of the current TN Scale version) the images will be ran with Kubernetes instead.
Over on the Truenas subreddit, one of the ix-systems employees have made comments that show Docker might come back in the future, so maybe we'll be allowed to choose if we want to run an image using Kubernetes or Docker.

At least with Docker there are plenty of guides and troubleshooting help online. It'd be nice if they brought Docker back. I'm okay using their apps in the meantime if they work.(2024-03-22, 03:45 AM)Zinic Wrote: I tried setting up a custom app but it was too complicated.
