Public bug reported: I have a Intel N4100 and I will use it for transcodification on emby, If I use the emby on windows, I can use the IntelQuickSyncVideo (then, the hardware is OK).
But, using emby on ubuntu and with the VAAPI option, there is not possible use the hardware accelerarion. But if I play a video, I can see that the use from the GPU go up. I have tried with: ubuntu 18.10, ubuntu 19.04, the last kernel version, ffmpeg4, the last VAAPI version.... and nothing. More information on emby and ubuntu forum (test, reports, screenshots, etc...) https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/13029-ubuntu/?p=648125 https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2406273 finally in a private chat with emby, I have been recommended to get in touch with you, since something may not work correctly. Please, can you help me?
