Hi,

Jellyfin Version 10.10.0, Ubuntu 24.04.1
Installed on Proxmox, LXC has GPU, according to https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/admini...y-on-linux "all is well" and should be working.

Using Chrome i get a "Playback Error - Playback failed due to a fatal player error." Same file works with direct play on the same PC with the Jellyfin Media Player.

Trying to run the specific command in CLI get's

Code:
[AVHWDeviceContext @ 0x5d6523c103c0] Failed to get number of OpenCL platforms: -1001.

Device creation failed: -19.

Failed to set value 'opencl=ocl:0.0' for option 'init_hw_device': No such device

Error parsing global options: No such device

Which is expected, since i have no OpenCL installed. However, Jellyfin trying to use OpenCL is not expected, as according to the docs, AMD GPUs only need VA-API and MESA.

Please provide the complete ffmpeg log instead of snippets, it does not help in debugging.

Also please share a screenshot of the settings in Dashboard->Playback->Transcoding.

And also provide your hardware specs.

Jellyfin is running in an Debian 12 LXC on a fully upgraded Proxmox.

TheDreadPirate · 2024-11-05, 11:53 PM

Are the mesa drivers also installed on Proxmox? I believe with LXCs you need drivers on both the host OS and LXC OS.

I'm not familiar with LXC but the FFmpeg error indicates that the VAAPI device initialization failed, which is probably due to permission issues.

I mean, the log says it failed, because instead of using Vulkan, Jellyfin is starting the command with OpenCL - which is not installed and according to all documentation not needed.

But i have no idea if there's a setting for that, apparently VA-API does imply it's going to use Vulkan...but it doesn't

Jellyfin determines Vulkan availability based on the output of:

Code:
/usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg -v debug -init_hw_device drm=dr:/dev/dri/renderD128 -init_hw_device vulkan@dr

Please restart the server and try again. You should be able to find these in the server startup log

Code:
VAAPI device /dev/dri/renderD128 supports Vulkan DRM modifier

VAAPI device /dev/dri/renderD128 supports Vulkan DRM interop
