FFmpeg Crash - Exit Code 139 | Intel N100 VAAPI Passthrough | Jellyfin Container

[filixa8041]

Hey folks,
I'm running into a playback issue on my Jellyfin server and could use a hand troubleshooting it.
Issue Summary:
Every time I try to play a video via the web UI, I get this:
Playback Error: Playback failed due to a fatal player error.
Looking at the logs, it seems FFmpeg is crashing with exit code 139.
----------------------
System Info:
[*]CPU: Intel N100 (iGPU passthrough)
[*]Running in K8 container
[*]FFmpeg version: 7.0.2-Jellyfin
[*]Hardware Accel: VAAPI + QSV

---

Symptoms & Logs:
Playback fails and server logs show:

Code:

[ERR] FFmpeg exited with code 139 ... Transcode Reason: ContainerNotSupported, SecondaryAudioNotSupported, VideoRangeTypeNotSupported

File info:

Code:

Example Movie (2023) 4K HDR Bluray
[list]
[*]Video: HEVC Main 10, Dolby Vision P8.1 (HDR10)
[*]Audio: Dolby TrueHD + Atmos (7.1), AC3, AAC

[/list]

VAAPI Diagnostics (inside container):

Code:

vainfo

Outputs:

Code:

error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is invalid or not set in the environment. error: can't connect to X server! libva info: VA-API version 1.20.0 Driver: Intel iHD - 24.1.0 Supported profile and entrypoints: VAProfileNone : VAEntrypointVideoProc VAProfileNone : VAEntrypointStats

Also tested:

Code:

/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg
-init_hw_device vaapi=va:/dev/dri/renderD128
-hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_device va -hwaccel_output_format vaapi
-i /data/movies/Example\ Movie\ 202320232023.mkv -f null -

^ This runs fine manually inside the container.

FFmpeg Command from Jellyfin logs:

Code:

/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg -analyzeduration 200M -probesize 1G ... -init_hw_device vaapi=va:,vendor_id=0x8086,driver=iHD
-init_hw_device qsv=qs@va -init_hw_device opencl=ocl@va
-filter_hw_device qs -hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_output_format vaapi ... -vf "...,tonemap_vaapi=...,hwmap=derive_device=qsv,format=qsv" ...

This command fails and results in FFmpeg exit 139.

Things I've Tried:

• Confirmed GPU passthrough (/dev/dri/renderD12
  
• Manual ffmpeg VAAPI decode test works
  
• vainfo works despite the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR warning
  
• Tried isolating filter chain in test ffmpeg calls (no crash)
