I'm still using Jellyfin 10.8.9 because every time I try a new version, i run into performance issues. I'm hoping it is something simple that I can fix...
Jellyfin is running in a Docker instance
Docker is hosted on an Ubuntu server VM
Proxmox is running on bare metal giving the Ubuntu instance 4 cores and 16GB of memory
CPU is i7-9700
64GB of memory total
GeForce 8400 GPU (very old card but I needed a GPU to boot)
No hardware acceleration in Jellyfin, no GPU passthrough in Proxmox
The issue I notice is that when I stream DVR or DVD content to a Roku device, my CPU in Ubuntu runs at about 75%. When I upgrade to 10.10.0 (same results with 10.8.12 and over versions in 10.9) the CPU usage maxes out at 400% (for the 4 cores of the CPU the Ubuntu VM gets). On the Roku I've tried Direct Play of MPEG-2 disable and enabled. They playback often works but sometimes freezes or gets pixelated. I'm assuming this is part of the CPU spiking....
I'd be happy to provide any logs that would help.
