Currently running Rocky 8 Linux with Jellyfin though a docker container.
What would be a good(cheap hopefully) option for adding some hardware acceleration?
So far I love this software, its everything I wanted from Plex without all the bloat I did not want.

Or maybe there is just something I need to do to expose the GPU to docker and my current setup should be enough? Want it to be able to handle at least two 1080p streams, but will likely want to upgrade so it can handle around 4-5 in the future.
Thanks!
Its also possible that integrated GPU doesn't support the video codec. AMD hardware acceleration drivers and configuration is weird, pre-Vega.
