How to test HW Transcoding. Have working Transcoding in Jellyfin same VM

[leaden raft]

Hey,

How do I test if the HW transcoding is working. I am running an N100 intel mini PC. I got it working w/ jellyfin but I wanted to make sure my compose was working. I believe I have everything setup in the web gui properly( my understanding is it will drop to software if not working)

I recently moved servers from a 3rd gen intel to a 12th gen intel so want to take advantage of these hardware features!

Pretty sure I need to make some changes in my docker compose

Any way to follow the logs?

These are 2 containers that require changes 🙂

For an intel CPU you'll want OpenVino for ML and QSV for transcoding

Personally I did encounter an issue with permissions and I had to add the render group to the docker container, just FYI

I had to add the render group for jellyfin so I can believe that
