VA-API trickplay encoding: failed to open /usr/lib64/dri/hybrid_drv_video.so

[brianjmurrell]

I'm trying to diagnose why Trickplay stopped generating images.  There error I'm getting from ffmpeg on trying to generate them is:

Code:

# sudo -u jellyfin bash -c "/usr/libexec/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg -loglevel error -init_hw_device vaapi=va:/dev/dri/card0,driver=i965 -i file:\"/video/mythvideo/Movies/[redacted] WEBRip-1080p.mkv\" -an -sn -vf \"fps=0.10000000149011612,setparams=color_primaries=bt709:color_trc=bt709:colorspace=bt709,scale=trunc(min(max(iw\,ih*(a*sar))\,320)/2)*2:trunc(ow/(a*sar)/2)*2:out_range=pc,format=nv12,hwupload_vaapi\" -threads 1 -c:v mjpeg_vaapi -global_quality:v 91 -fps_mode passthrough -f image2 \"/tmp/jellyfin/564b5be3230d4cb8af42b79ae3cd481c/%08d.jpg\""

So as you can see, vainfo seems to correctly identify that it needs to use /usr/lib64/dri/i965_drv_video but I don't see jellyfin-ffmpeg trying to use the same thing.

Any ideas what is going wrong here?

/usr/libexec/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg

According to the logs this is an unofficial version of jellyfin-ffmpeg, so whether it contains fully functional drivers depends on your own linux distro.

Also it is recommended that you disable hardware acceleration for Trickplay. Because Haswell does not support the MJPEG encoder. Eventually it will fail.
