Comment on [HELP] Podman, Peertube, AMD VAAPI

Are you using rooted or rootless podman? I’m running rootless and am quite sure I needed to add my local user to the video group. I’m out and about, but can investigate later if you want. Otherwise you seem on the right track

  I’m using rootless podman, not sure if that will make a big difference.
  
  Add the user running the containers to the video using the following command:
  
  sudo usermod -a -G video [username]
  
  Then I have this in my quadlet for the containers that need HW acceleration. As I understand it, keep-groups means the user rights to use video resources will be passed from the OS into the container.
  
  AddDevice=/dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128 AddDevice=/dev/dri/card0:/dev/dri/card0 PodmanArgs=--group-add keep-groups
  
  I don’t think I have anything else relevant in my set up. Hope it helps!

    Hope you have some success 🙂 Mine isn’t discrete, I just have an AMD Ryzen 7 4700U and I’m running off the integrated Vega graphics.
