Jellyfin on a Mini PC

[pxr5]

Hi all,

I currently run Jellyfin in a container on a Synology NAS - which works very well apart from the lack of transcoding. I've just got a great little Mini PC Link and was thinking about putting JF on this instead. I've read the guide for JF and transcoding on a Windows PC but it's all a bit baffling. Is just a matter of setting up JF and selecting QSV from the Hardware Acceleration drop down? I know Linux would be a better choice but as it's new I'd rather stick with WIn11 for now.

Thank you.

Follow our QSV setup docs.

There are a couple extra steps you need to do other than selecting QSV from the HWA drop down. Like the group policy change in step 3.

You will also need to select the appropriate codecs that your N100 supports decoding and encoding. Use this table to aid in selecting the right boxes.

Your iGPU supports tone mapping so select those boxes. Also, I'm pretty sure you can check Low Power encoding without having to do any additional setup.
