Wow! These are beautiful forums - way nicer than the reddit sub.
I've got Jellyfin running dockerized on a Synology DS920+ where I also store my media. I used this setup after recommendations of the Synology due to this model having an intel J4215 CPU which is apparently a Quicksync, low-power rock star for this sort of application. I noticed that playing a video file was no problem, but resuming and skipping were extremely slow. I'm assuming that's because the media was being transcoded. I read that enabling hardware acceleration could/should make a large improvement. On that page of settings, I saw the drop down and I chose Quicksync. What I noticed though, were that the check boxes below (H264/VP9, VP1, etc) only had checks in a few of the boxes. Being the impulsive mess that I am, I checked all the boxes. Now it won't play any video and I can't remember what the defaults were to set it back. And why are only some boxes checked?
