I am suspecting that there could be one of two problems here. You've not setup the low power encoders properly and having them enabled is causing some issue or there is something wrong with the way you've setup your GPU. Maybe you are missing drivers etc.
For the former, I would try turning off the low power encoder option, restarting jellyfin and see if that helps.
For the latter, Run sudo intel_gpu_top. This program may not be present in your system, So you might have to download it. If the GPU is working, then you will see the Render/3D , Video and VideoEnhance engines working when you start playing the video. Something like this: https://ibb.co/Xr24Dz6H
If you don't see anything and your CPU utilization is coming up then your CPU is being used to do the transcoding.
