    Headless with HW acceleration

    Is HW acceleration possible without a monitor plugged in?

    I'm looking to use Jellyfin hardware acceleration on a 1L mini Intel PC running Ubuntu where the 8th generation CPU supports Quick Sync but where there will not be a monitor attached. I will use an SSH terminal or Remote Desktop to administer the box.

    As per the following web page, Plex needs a monitor or a so-called dummy plug to turn on hardware acceleration of encoding/decoding.

    https://forums.serverbuilds.net/t/guide-...enc/1408/2

    Is that a hardware requirement and therefore true for Jellyfin too?

    Thanks
