SOLVED: Intel Transcoding Crashes

[valthonis_surion]

More installed options with the previous command now. But the LiveTV portion with transcoding hangs like it has been.

intel-gpu-tools/mantic,now 1.27.1-1 amd64 [installed]
intel-media-va-driver-non-free/mantic,now 23.2.3+ds1-1 amd64 [installed]
intel-microcode/mantic-updates,mantic-security,now 3.20231114.0ubuntu0.23.10.1 amd64 [installed,automatic]

libdrm-intel1/mantic,now 2.4.115-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]

The FFMPEG transcode log doesn't show anything odd, but the core log shows this with the last lock up.

For clarification, .245 is the machine I am trying to view the video and .60 is obviously the Jellyfin box.
The bitrate is specifically limited, thus the "containerbitrateexceedslimit" reason for transcoding.

[TheDreadPirate]

Try upgrading jellyfin-ffmpeg from 5.1.4 to 6

I think its as simple as the command below. It's been a while since I made the switch to 6. I don't recall there being any difficulty doing this upgrade.

Code:

sudo apt install jellyfin-ffmpeg6
sudo systemctl restart jellyfin

[valthonis_surion]

Ran the two commands, same behavior. Still the same error in the logs.

How many liveTV channels do you have? Is this a HDHomeRun or some IPTV service?

"[ERR] FFmpeg exited with code 139"

if ffmpeg exited does the ffmpeg log show why

[TheDreadPirate]

"[ERR] FFmpeg exited with code 139"

Pretty sure that is the message in their first post.

Code:

[h264_qsv @ 000001cb4bb2cf40] Error during encoding: device failed (-17)
Error submitting video frame to the encoder

I haven't been able to find anything online regarding this message other than problems with the source.  I double checked that RaptorLake supports mpeg2 decoding (that is the video stream video codec).

[tmsrxzar]

Pretty sure that is the message in their first post.

Code:

[h264_qsv @ 000001cb4bb2cf40] Error during encoding: device failed (-17)
Error submitting video frame to the encoder

indeed, in the first post *when the system was still running windows 11

are we still getting the same error now that the system has been wiped and had linux installed was more my question

if yes, the system is just possessed or the TV streams provider (be it a hdhomerun device or iptv) is just broken

Nothing immediately stood out to me, but here is the FFMPEG log.

In Dashboard > Playback, is MPEG2 checked? The log indicates it is CPU decoding (mpeg2video (native)). It SHOULDN'T matter, but I wonder what happens when you switch it to hardware decoding. Intel's docs indicate that RaptorLake still supports decoding MPEG2.
