Transcoding with the Arc A310

[alleycat]

After reading a lot of documentation on hardware transcoding, I'm wondering if I have my A310 setup correctly. This is my first "homelab project" for video files and transcoding. I'm sure there are a handful of Ubuntu cli commands that I could run to make sure I'm setup and working correctly.  Not sure if I know all of them. This is how I have the Jellyfin gui setup:

   

(The top of the screen grab was chopped off. I have it set for Intel Quicksync (QSV))

What else should I be looking at?

That is all there is to it. Just make sure you have the intel-opencl-icd package installed. The linux-firmware package should already be installed (required for low power encoding, which is required for H264/HEVC on Arc).

Is there a cli command to show if the intel-open-icd package is installed and working? (sorry, still a linux noob)

Code:

sudo apt list --installed | grep intel

intel-opencl-icd is the package name.

Thank you. Looks like I'm good to go then. Should I be worried about the warning message?

No. That is normal. Something something, apt is really old, something something, doesn't like being piped into other commands. I've yet to see apt break when I pipe it into a grep.
