Hardware Transcoding not working after upgrade to 10.10.0 - Nick - 2024-10-29

I updated from version 10.8.13 where hardware transcoding was working fine. 
Now it's not, on the logs i can see 
Code:
[h264_nvenc @ 0x55c5054e62c0] Cannot load libnvidia-encode.so.1
[h264_nvenc @ 0x55c5054e62c0] The minimum required Nvidia driver for nvenc is 520.56.06 or newer
(below full logs)
but my driver version is 525.147.05, I haven't changed driver version before or after the update.

I checked my environment variables and I do have
Code:
NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES=compute,video,utility
NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all
I even tried with  NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES=all but no difference. 

When the transcoding try to start on nvidia-smi i can see some activity for a couple of seconds but then it stops.
I'm running jellyfin on docker (through omv) on a debian 11 machine, my graphic card is a QUADRO P1000, docker image from lscr.io

I'm completely lost I don't know how to fix this.

You need to update all the nvidia packages to match. The CUDA version tells me some of your other Nvidia packages are still old.

But I haven't touched the nvidia packages, does Jellyfin 10.10 need to have newer drivers?

Nevermind, updating nvidia driver worked, I was a bit scared to do that because last time the drivers gave me a hard time. 

I updated and now transcoding is back to normal, thank you very much!!!
