Transcode Error - FfmpegException - Slowy - 2024-07-17
Hello!
Recently, I've started getting interested in the world of self-hosting and Linux. I assembled a PC with old parts and installed Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS.
I really liked Jellyfin, and decided to set up transcoding on it, but I'm having some problems...

When activating transcoding with only H264 enabled and trying to watch a media with the same codec, I get the error:

I know very little about Linux and so far I have been managing with ChatGPT, YouTube videos, and documentation, but I'm not able to solve this.
If you have any idea what it might be and could help me, I would be very grateful.
Note: I don't speak English, I asked GPT to translate for me, I apologize if there are any errors.
Information that may be useful:
My Jellyfin is running on Docker.
Jellyfin version: 10.9.7
OS: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Hardware Info:
CPU: Intel Core i3-4150
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7570
HD1: SAMSUNG HD322HJ
HD2: WDC WD5000AAKX-0
RE: Transcode Error - FfmpegException - TheDreadPirate - 2024-07-17
The Radeon HD 7570 had very limited video encoding capabilities even when it was new. And driver support for that card was dropped a long time ago.
But there is still support for the i3-4570 with VAAPI.

Understood.
I thought it was supported, because when I run "$ sudo /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/vainfo --display drm --device /dev/dri/renderD128" it seems to work.

RE: Transcode Error - FfmpegException - TheDreadPirate - 2024-07-17
No. Newer Intel CPUs not only added newer codecs, but improved quality. You are limited by the capability of the encoder in your model.

Ok
Thank you very much for the information and for your time, I appreciate the help.
