I'm a bit busy today so I can't look up the instructions. Look up docs for installing Intel's iHD driver.
When I have some time later, I will help you out more if you haven't worked through that yet.
Looked into it, and I may just be an idiot. The PC that was given to me has a 4570k in it, which I was told supports QSV/HEVC. I was lied to. So that means I need to use VA-API for hardware acceleration, not QSV. However there is still one weird thing, and that's the fact that even if I disable hardware acceleration and/or force direct playback, the client will still freeze. For reference, the client is running on a windows 11 PC with a 12700k and a 3080ti, so it shouldn't have any issues decoding HEVC (and it didn't back when I was running on docker). Any further ideas? It seems I'm back to square 1.
(And to answer your question, the iHD driver and VAAPI are supposedly installed and functional)
