So, I went and did something a bit crazy, and decided to try and make a Nvidia Tesla P4 card work as a video transcoder (a bit overkill I admit). Anyways, I’ve tried installing every relevant nvidia driver package, but no such luck getting jellyfin to transcode it. I’m assuming I missed something obvious but its not jumping out to me.
I was getting a different error before I installed these packages:
hevc @ 0x55dfddb52000] Cannot load libnvcuvid.so.1
[hevc @ 0x55dfddb52000] Failed loading nvcuvid.
[hevc @ 0x55dfddb52000] Failed setup for format cuda: hwaccel initialisation returned error.
libnvidia-compute-515-server libnvidia-decode-515-server
Current error i’m fighting:
[h264_nvenc @ 0x558685351780] Cannot load libnvidia-encode.so.1
[h264_nvenc @ 0x558685351780] The minimum required Nvidia driver for nvenc is 470.57.02 or newer
It shouldn’t matter, but this is in a Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS VM on my proxmox host, with the tesla PCI passthru’d.
I’ll probably have it figured out tomorrow, just in case anyone else had a similar problem gonna ask here…
