    Hardware acceleration (server). Better card = better performance?

    Will the performance and/or quality improve if I install a more powerful graphics card?

    Hey @pixel24

    For jellyfin, scaling wide is better then scaling up with GPUs. That means a GPU that can handle more transcode streams in parallel with atleast the playback framerate (plus a bit extra) will be everything you need. Just because you GPU does transcode it faster, will not allow you to "watch faster". For Jellyfin its a bit more of a either it can do it or don't story. If your system works now just fine, you will not get any tangible benefits from upgrading your GPU.
    typos are finders, keepers.
    Next Jellyfin release 10.11.0 will be Soon™
