How to install amdgpu pro driver?

[Javen]

I recently bought a 7950x and it comes with a iGPU. I would like to use it for Jellyfin decoding.

 

However, things are not that smooth.

I have installed Radeon top plugin and GPU statistics, passed through the iGPU to the jellyfin docker container though /dev/dri, changed the hw acceleration to AMF, but immediately I got an error when I play a movie.

 

I tried to dig out something in the jellyfin FFmepg log, it did mention some error as below:

Quote

[h264_amf @ 0x55e85663fc80] DLL libamfrt64.so.1 failed to open Error initializing output stream 0:0 -- Error while opening encoder for output stream #0:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height corrupted size vs. prev_size in fastbins

After some search, some posts mentioned it need amdgpu pro driver. And I do remember that the driver is mentioned as a must in Jellyfin HW transcoding doc.

 

So, looks that manually install amdgpu pro is the only way? But how? I could download the close source linux driver somewhere and install, but isn't that unraid will wipe these customized things every reboot?

Have you tried changing the hw acceleration option to VA-API?

Do you have any updates on this? I remember that VA-API should work although not as good as AMD AMF
