Does nextcloud stream video use iGPU?


Recommended Posts

This might be a dumb question. Plex used hardware transcoding to stream video if plexpass is present. However, if I do upload a video to nextcloud on my unraid, does it automatically uses the iGPU when I stream a video from nextcloud or just pure CPU? Is there anyway to enable nextcloud to use hardware transcoding if a user decide play a video on nextcloud? I am curious as I do not want to overload the CPU.

As of right now, on NextCloud version 24.0.1, it appears that it only uses CPU (mine doesn't have intergraded graphics). I do have a graphics card that I have setup for docker use, and have tried to add the extra parameters and variables as suggested here but for Nextcloud with no success.

 

It appears that Next cloud is using a plugin for the video playback/streaming.

Has anyone setup NC to use a graphics card? Does it work with an iGPU?

 

Thanks.
