I assume it’s not nvidia. Yet I have no idea how to differentiate between them and neither do I know what a good price is.

Let’s say I don’t want to think about what the video type is. I just want a smooth experience.

Edit: thank you guys!

The nvidia 1650 can’t do AV1 but it can handle hevc just fine, I’m currently using a 1660 on mine and before that it was a 950. Unless you need more than 3 steams at a time you should be able to get it working.

AV1 decode is supported on the RTX 3000 series, encode + decode in the RTX 4000 series

For Intel Arc, AV1 encode + decode support is present on all Arc Alchemist GPUs,

For AMD, AV1 decode is on RX 6000 series, encode + decode on all RX 7000 series GPUs

As someone else has recommended, a low end Intel Arc alchemist GPU is pretty great for stuff like Jellyfin, very low price to entry for gfx accelerated AV1 transcoding.
