I try to follow the docs but somehow it doesn't work as expected. How does your compose file look and what to choose in the settings?
My current setup: (Not working)
services:
# original source: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/container/
jellyfin:
image: docker.io/jellyfin/jellyfin:latest
container_name: jellyfin
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=1000
- TZ=Europe/Berlin
- JELLYFIN_PublishedServerUrl=https://my.url
volumes:
- ./config:/config:Z
- ./cache:/cache:Z
- ./media:/media:rw
ports:

# no need for https since reverse proxy and no local discovery
restart: always
device:
- /dev/dri/:/dev/dri/:Z
- /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128:Z
group-add:
- 105
privileged: true
I do not want a privileged container but I'm experimenting.
- VAAPI is selected
- VA-API device: is set to
/dev/dri/renderD128
- enable hardware decoding for : H264, HEVC, HEVC 10bit and VP9 10 bit
- enable hardware encoding
- allow encoding in HEVC
to get the group I ran getent group render | cut -d: -f3
on the host which returned 105
.
$ podman exec -it jellyfin /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/vainfo
Trying display: drm
libva info: VA-API version 1.21.0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/lib/dri/iHD_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_21
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 1.21 (libva 2.21.0)
vainfo: Driver version: Intel iHD driver for Intel(R) Gen Graphics - 24.2.1 (0593864)

This command returns VA-API does that mean I can only (or I should) select this method? Or is QSV also possible? What's better?
