Stuttering on Tablet - Baaka - 2024-10-13

Good day,

first of all, thanks to all the people in this forums that help people like me that have very limited skills, but are willing to learn Grinning-face


I installed jellyfin, set up a server and it works pretty well, it works on my pc and on my Fire TV(4k)

I am having stuttering issues with my tablet though.

My specs: Beelink 12 pro N100 
Tablet: Fire HD 10 (i dont know which year)

I am assuming this has to do with hardware encoding

i already found that the integrated graphics needed to be activated on the beelink in bios, which i already did

And i already set up hardware encoding in the server options, but i am still stuck with stuttering.

note:1080p streaming on tablet no issues, 4k streaming on tv no issues

Any one got an idea ?

Honestly, it is probably the trash SoC that Amazon puts in their tablets. My kid has a Kindle 7 tablet (2022 model, don't remember the exact one) and it can't play anything smoothly that is above 480P. It doesn't request transcodes unless I lower the quality selector in the Jellyfin client.

all 1080 p videos work fine on the fire hd 10... therefore i assume the issue is in the transcoding from 4k to 1080p

how can icheck if the gpu from my beelink is dedicated for this task, right now i assume this is the issue.

You'd need to share the ffmpeg log. Other users have not had performance issues with their N100s, except for 60fps 4K video.
