Cant play media with nvidia hardware transcoding - Nickoetje - 2024-03-31

Hi i am running debian 11 with yunohost having installed jellyfin 10.8.13 i have tried many times to set jellyfin up using nvenc but never succeeded.
i am using an nvidia quadro P4000 with driver 550.54.14. see my transcoding settings in the attachment
the media i am trying to play is:
Video
Title: 4K HEVC HDR
Codec: HEVC
Profile: Main 10
Level: 153
Resolution: 3840x2160
Aspect ratio: 16:9

Video range type: HDR10
Color space: bt2020nc
Color transfer: smpte2084
Color primaries: bt2020
Pixel format: yuv420p10le
Ref frames: 1

but other codeses dont seem to work aswell allways resulting in the error (tried h264):
Playback error the client isnt compatible with the media and the server isnt sending a compatible media format

currently the log shows:

RE: Cant play media with nvidia hardware transcoding - TheDreadPirate - 2024-03-31

Did you install the encode/decode packages?

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/administration/hardware-acceleration/nvidia/#configure-on-linux-host

Code:
sudo apt list --installed | grep libvn

Looking for libnvcuvid1 and libnvidia-encode1. If they are not installed

Code:
sudo apt install libnvcuvid1 libnvidia-encode1

RE: Cant play media with nvidia hardware transcoding - Nickoetje - 2024-03-31

those indeed were missing i am now still getting the error that it cant be played but the logs dotn show the missing llib arreors now they give me this

the big log shows this:

RE: Cant play media with nvidia hardware transcoding - TheDreadPirate - 2024-03-31

The big log you pasted is from an hour ago, so I'm assuming no longer relevant since the ffmpeg logs you attached look fine.

Can you attach a more up to date portion of your main jellyfin log?

i dint see that sorry my bad it was at the bottom:

it does not seem to have generated a new main log file since i updated the libary?

RE: Cant play media with nvidia hardware transcoding - Nickoetje - 2024-03-31

i did some checking i indeed dont get a new main log but only the 3 ffmpeg logs showing no error except that its exiting. on the other hand h264 seems to be transcoding propperly now.

Can you share your complete jellyfin log on https://sourceb.in/ ?

RE: Cant play media with nvidia hardware transcoding - Nickoetje - 2024-03-31

i might have shot myself a bit in the leg only testing it out on chrome, seems to work fine on mobile and pc apps

there are no more new logs in the main log past 1:22am

RE: Cant play media with nvidia hardware transcoding - TheDreadPirate - 2024-03-31

Mobile and the desktop app are probably direct playing while it is trying to transcode in the browser when you play HEVC content. It should still work in Chrome via transcoding.

https://pastebin.com/VriKUCk8 here is a pastebin since sourcebin gives me anvalid request error

can confirm that the mobile app is transcoding the pc app is indeed direct playing

while transcoding on phone my cpu loads up to 40% on 24 threads

and gpu on 20%
