Hi there, did you follow our hardware acceleration setup guide?

Yes I did, many times. I installed the correct drivers and when using Jellyfin I can just use VAAPI pointed to /dev/dri/renderD128 and it works. When I check under the advanced transcoding tab in Emby, the list of GPU's stays empty.

Please attach the emby server log as well. Thanks.

Here are the logs after a fresh restart. Thanks for the fast reply

So... I've found something:

 

When I use the console with "ffdetect vaencdec" It shows me the "Failed to initialize VA /dev/dri/renderD128. Error -1" error.

 

Then, after I set then ENV variable: export LIBVA_DRIVERS_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri:/usr/lib64/dri:/usr/lib/dri

 

Then it works and shows me the correct devices. I'm trying to set this path at the docker startup now, maybe it yields some results

I was just able to change this behaviour and it works!

 

Sorry to bother you. But maybe a request for the official Emby docker image?

 

Include the mesa-va-drivers package and maybe vainfo for troubleshooting? This would help all those people with AMD APU's out there a lot .

 

I'm willing to test for you if you want.

Thanks for the feedback ! Yes I'm sure this can be improved in future updates.
