But you'd need to do that on your Ryzen/3060 machine. I wouldn't recommend rffmpeg due to the added complexity.
Is purchasing new hardware an option? It really doesn't take much if you only have one or two clients. Intel N100 based mini-PCs are pretty cheap and the N100 is pretty capable for running Jellyfin.
It's possible to put my Jellyfin server on my main machine or buy hardware capable of transcoding.
But this would be not fun at all.
Also, it appears to be a big challenge to do it, because rffmpeg is for Linux only.
Since I can't fully transition to Linux on my main machine, I need to find a way to use my hardware on VM, it will be very limited and not ideal because all type 2 supervisors limit this kind of ability.
Regardless, it's a very fun problem to solve.
