As I understood it, you'd have to be on beta branch:

AV1 HW decoding is planned but not implemented yet. It's simply because at this time, just a very small percentage of Emby users would benefit from it, and when we would implement it in beta, there wouldn't be many who could test it and provide feedback. Then in turn, we would have something that is not sufficiently tested and decide what to do with it.

But this will change within the next year as more and more devices with that capability will be sold (both Nvidia and Intel), so it's not that far away I think.

UPDATE

The latest betas (since 4.8.0.29) support AV1 decoding 

• With QuickSync (Windows + Linux)
• With DX11VA (Windows)

AV1 decoding for Nvidia and VAAPI is planned to be added soon.

thanks any idea when it will be on the release channel.

[GrimReaper 4739]

AFAIK Devs are looking to release it by year-end. 

[techpro2004 7]

Then I will wait thanks.

[techpro2004 7]

Just wondering if it is still due out this year. thanks.

Hi, we're working hard on it. Thanks.

[techpro2004 7]

Sounds good to me. Also saw on github you are using ffmpeg 5.1, why not 6.1? thanks.

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

 

[techpro2004 7]

I don't have an issue with 5.1, it is just that a lot of other media related projects are using 6.1 and I was wondering why you chose 5.1. If it works than great. I am still on the 4.7 branch.

We don't really choose anything specific, it all depends on what's playing and the device it's being played on. So whoever wrote we always use 5.1 instead of 6.1 was misinformed.

[techpro2004 7]

In that case, I suggest you update this page here (https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases)

Update what exactly?

[techpro2004 7]

second bullet under cumulative changes "Update to ffmpeg 5.1"

[Luke 42077]

OK i thought you meant audio. I'm going to remove that line because that makes it look like we're only on 5.1, which isn't true.

[techpro2004 7]

So just to clarify, what version of ffmpeg is the 4.8 branch of emby using. thanks.

It is a custom build.

[techpro2004 7]

but what is it based on. thanks

[techpro2004 7]

Just checking if we are still on track for the new year. It is almost Christmas. fyi, I upgraded my a2000 to a rtx 4000 ada.

They are probably sick and tired of people asking this question and are more than likely trying to divert all resources to getting it done.
