Hello everyone, I wanted to post an update as I finally solved the issue. The Jellyfin Docker container was not the problem. The root cause was actually a BIOS/Unraid compatibility issue with the Intel Arc Pro B50. I also updated Unraid from 7.3.0 to 7.3.1, although I'm not certain this was strictly required. The settings that fixed hardware transcoding for me were: Above 4G Decoding → Enabled Resizable BAR → Enabled CSM → Disabled (UEFI only) PCIe slot speed manually set to PCIe 4.0 instead of Auto My hardware: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Gigabyte B550 Vision D Intel Arc Pro B50 (Battlemage) After applying these BIOS settings and rebooting, Jellyfin was able to use the GPU correctly for hardware transcoding. VAAPI and Intel QSV are now working as expected. Hopefully this helps anyone trying to use an Intel Arc Battlemage GPU (B50/B580, etc.) with Unraid and Jellyfin. Thanks to everyone who took the time to help.

Hello, thank you for your reply. I am currently using the Jellyfin container from LinuxServer: Jellyfin linuxserver Repository: lscr.io/linuxserver/jellyfin Server version: 10.11.9

Hello everyone, I hope you’re doing well. I recently bought an Intel Arc Pro B50 (Battlemage) last year, but it was not supported by default on Unraid because of the older Linux kernels. Since updating to Unraid 7.3.0 and the newer Linux kernels, the GPU is now correctly detected without any issues (visible in GPU Statistics / gpu-top). My current hardware configuration is: CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Motherboard: Gigabyte B550 Vision D GPU: Intel Arc Pro B50 (Battlemage) However, I’m having a problem with Jellyfin: it is unable to properly use the GPU for hardware transcoding. I already: correctly added /dev/dri to the Jellyfin docker container selected the correct GPU engine for transcoding tested both VAAPI and Intel QSV verified that the GPU is properly detected by the system But Jellyfin fails as soon as a transcoding session starts. I also noticed incompatibilities in the logs between: Intel QSV VAAPI overlay_qsv and the new Intel xe driver At first, I tried forcing i915, but since my GPU is a Battlemage card, it seems to require the xe driver instead. Is anyone already using an Arc Battlemage GPU (B50/B580/etc.) with Jellyfin on Unraid? Do you have a stable configuration or any solution to make hardware transcoding work properly? Thanks in advance
