SOLVED: Hardware Acceleration

[emrogs]

Hey guys

I have jellyfin on a proxmox privileged lxc container and have followed the guide for hardware acceleration, yet it wont playback anything but h264.

I have a Rocket Lake i5 11400, I passed through the renderD128 which is showing up in my lxc but the group is systemd for whatever reason.

QSV doesnt work and VAAPI with the selected renderD128 doesnt work.

Im new to all this so I dont know how to get it running.

On the host, what is the output of this command.

Code:

sudo apt list --installed | egrep "headers|intel"

[emrogs]

root@azha:~# sudo apt list --installed | egrep "headers|intel"
-bash: sudo: command not found
root@azha:~# apt list --installed | egrep "headers|intel"

WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts.

If "azha" is the proxmox host itself, then you need to install a bunch of packages on proxmox.

Code:

apt install linux-headers-amd64 intel-gpu-tools intel-media-va-driver-non-free intel-microcode libdrm-intel1

I know that vanilla Debian doesn't configure apt to pull from the non-free repo. Not sure if Proxmox is the same. If it isn't installing the non-free intel media driver, add "non-free" to your apt config.

[emrogs]

Yes its the host. I installed all except these

E: Package 'intel-media-va-driver-non-free' has no installation candidate
E: Package 'intel-microcode' has no installation candidate

how do I add non-free to my apt config

[TheDreadPirate]

Read this stack exchange post. Super easy. Add both "non-free" and "non-free-firmware".

thank you very much kind sir.

it works now perfectly fine with VAAPI and QVS.

Huzzah! Stick with QSV on newer Intel CPUs.
