Well given the error I had been getting referencing the ACLs and the Force Flag option, my Intel GPU setting remained at 0 anyway LOL
I was also mistaken in my understanding of the GPU allocation, as I hadn't realized it was an identifier rather than a quantity. Pie in the face for me there.
I may have inadvertently solved my transcoding issue though. Initially I was trying to figure out why videos that are NOT in a format that my Android phone supports were simply not playing (regardless of whether I used an external player like VLC or Jellyfin's internal player on the phone) rather than transcoding into a format that my phone supports. This led me to assume that Jellyfin was, for whatever reason, not transcoding the videos at all.
As it turned out, I had the Hardware Acceleration under Transcoding set to Intel QSV rather than VAAPI. Out of curiosity I set it to VAAPI and now everything seems to be working as it should. At least so far it is. The real test will be when I try playback from my family's Roku TV across town.....
