Finally got VAAPI to work on my machine after a rebuild and upgrade to Debian 9. Now I need a bit more help, what is a node? When I choose the VA API one of the sections says node and it lists a device, is it already correct?

 

Here is my VAInfo output: 

libva info: VA-API version 0.39.4
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so

      VAProfileVP9Profile0            : VAEntrypointEncSlice

This is the current emby transcoding node: /dev/dri/renderD128

I think the default we've chosen should suffice. I think in most cases you'll only need to customize it if you have multiple gpu's.

Can you give me an example of the command called? As when I try using /usr/bin/ffmpeg -loglevel warning -hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_output_format vaapi -hwaccel_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -fflags +genpts -i test.mp4 -o test2.mp4 I get errors.

 

[AVHWDeviceContext @ 0x5d43880] No VA display found for device: /dev/dri/renderD128.
Device creation failed: -22.
[h264 @ 0x5d74540] No device available for decoder: device type vaapi needed for codec h264.
Device setup failed for decoder on input stream #0:0 : Invalid argument

The best way to get a complete example would be to just play something in emby and then check the ffmpeg log.

Slight issue, while it is playing I don't think it is doing so right.

I got this till I changed it to hwaccel_device when I was testing

Right well I would put it back to default.

Like Luke said put it back to default and make sure that your Linux "emby" user (user owning emby server process) is part of the video group. On my Sinology NAS (it's running on Linux) that was the message I got until I put my emby user into the video group. Basically emby needs the proper rights to access the drivers. After I've done this, vaapi works like it should.

Yes trust the defaults unless you have a reason to change them.
