Comment on Jellyfin is not just good... but *better* than Plex now?!
MorningThunder@lemm.ee 1 week agoI used to have similar issues, was due to my PC not being able to handle the transcoding. Enabling hardware acceleration fixed it for me.

I bought an 13th Gen Asus Nuc with an i7 running Debian headless and a hard-disk bay for my setup, previously all I was using was a Rasp Pi 4, I honestly don’t know if my Jellyfin instance is utilizing the CPU’s iGPU not really sure how to tell.
Running lspci in the shell does return

Easiest way to tell is to transcode something and see if your CPU spikes. If it’s offloaded to the GPU it shouldn’t.
Also make sure you have it configured correctly. On your Admin Dashboard under Playback > Transcoding, check that Intel QuickSync (QSV) is selected.
I have an N100 (Intel 12th gen) so I think your settings should be similar. For mine I have pretty much everything checked except for VP8, the two HEVC RExt options, and “Allow encoding in AV1 format”
