Can you share your docker compose?

Can you share your docker compose?

I am using Linuxserver's docker image, but the issue that is happening occurs when using either the official image or Linuxserver's image.

Code:

version: '3'
services:
  jellyfin:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/jellyfin:latest
    container_name: jellyfin
    restart: unless-stopped
    env_file: stack.env
    runtime: nvidia
    volumes:
      - config:/config
      - /media/jellyfin/transcodes:/transcodes
      - /media/jellyfin/movies:/movies

    networks:
      - default
      - traefik
      - jellyfin

I revisited your original post. I noticed you have decode acceleration enabled for HEVC, which your GPU does not support.

Dashboard > Playback > Transcoding. Check MPEG2, VC1, VP8, and H264 for the decode section. Uncheck everything else. This will cause those codecs to decode on the CPU instead of the GPU.

After fixing a few other errors by restarting the docker stack and fixing folder permissions, it works! Thanks so much!
