FFMPEG on unRAID

Open DrShepard4815 opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

I'm using the docker PsuedoTV on unRAID.

I've enabled the Intel iGPU driver in unRAID and given PseudoTV access to the device, but when I set the quicksync encoders (mpeg2_qsv and h264_qsv), the ffmpeg log shows them as unknown encoders and they don't show up as enabled.

Plex uses the iGPU for hardware transcoding just fine, but I can't figure it, nor do I have the technical knowledge. I'm new to unRAID, so there might be something I'm missing.

I would have to check to be sure but it could be that the ffmpeg installed was compiled without quick sync compatibility.

Looking around at other forums, it would seem that way. Some suggested to compile a separate ffmpeg container with the right settings, but I've don't have any experience coding. I would give it a try, but a few people said that they couldn't get a quicksync compatible ffmpeg compiled and working.

I’ll take a look if I can create a intel template easily.
