Having a bit of trouble getting hardware acceleration working on my home server. The cpu of the server is an i7-10700 and has a discrete GPU, RTX 2060. I was hoping to use intel quick sync for the hardware acceleration, but not having much luck.
I have gotten the render group ID using “getent group render | cut -d: -f3” though it mentions on some systems it might not be render, it may be video or input which i tried with those group ID’s as well.
When I run “docker exec -it jellyfin /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/vainfo”
I get back
libva info: VA-API version 1.22.0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/jellyfin-ffmpeg/lib/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so
libva info: Trying to open /usr/local/lib/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so
libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit
I feel like I need to do something on the host system since its trying to use the discrete card? But I am unsure.
This is the compose file just in case I am missing something

Do you have the Intel drivers installed on your machine? Are GuC and HuC working?
On Debian I had to manually download the i915 full driver Zip, extract it, take out the Intel drivers, and put it in
/usr/lib/firmwareThen hardware acceleration worked on my Arc380.
If you use QSV, your CPU iGPU will be the one that can use it, so make sure to set your render device in docker to the iGPU and not the RTX 2060
