    HD2500 supports H.264 encoding, so maybe enough for basic usage. However, that gpu doesn't support H.265 decoding. If you only use direct play, which means the client fully supports the video codec and the bandwith is enough to play the original video on the fly, I guess it's fine. But if you intent to stream a compressed video, or use transcoding, or need to bake-in subtitles, you need to make sure all your video files are H.264 only.
    To be honest, I think try deploying a Jellyfin server and see the results would be easier.
