When you notice that #OBS on your #UbuntuStudio #Linux 24.04 can't use your old #AMDgpu to encode video using #ffmpeg #vaapi. Well, it can, but it messes up screen recordings completely.
Like if video encoding on the GPU was something very new.
I just spent like 5 hours trying to force #FFMPEG #VAAPI #OBS encoder to output something that isn't a hot blurry mess. It turns out there is a nice ffmpeg webpage, where they state that AMD/Mesa platform supports one parameter: -compression_level=xx
And setting it to 29 activates a quality preset which isn't complete bullshit and then the #stream looks nice...

I love #Linux, but cut me some slack sometimes xD I will start making guides for all of the bullshit I have been finding out about stuff over the years. The solutions people post on forums are sometimes so ridiculous xD
At 1:40 AM, Nevy over and out... Finally... :skeletor:

🚀 Hoy dejo un hilo sobre cómo tener Kdenlive moderno en AntiX usando paquetes selectivos de Debian Multimedia (DMO)…
👉 sin romper dependencias
👉 con FFmpeg completo
👉 con VAAPI activo
👉 y manteniendo MLT estable desde Debian.
Hice alguna correcciones de la guía “Instalar y verificar Kdenlive (DMO) en Debian/AntiX ”
✔️ versión corregida y técnica
La mejor combinación posible. 🎬✨

🚀 Actualicé mi guía para instalar Kdenlive (DMO) en Debian/AntiX
Le hice varias mejoras visuales para que ahora se vea mucho mejor en móviles 📱✨
También agregué botones de copiar en los bloques de comandos para que todo sea más cómodo al seguir la guía.
Si ya la leíste, te recomiendo revisarla de nuevo 👇😉

In -current, chromium (and derivatives) now have VA-API support https://www.undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20251020052031 #openbsd #current #chromium #vaapi #browsers #webdev #development #freesoftware #libresoftware
Interessant: eufy e210 Kamera über #frigate mit #zimaboard über #vaapi (Dekodierung) und #coral (Detektion) lokal energieschonend auswerten.
me: Oh, with my Framework Laptop I can now finally encode AV1 with hardware acceleration! Yay modern codecs!
AMD: By the way there's a hardware bug and the resulting video's dimensions have to be a multiple of 64×16. We've added a partial workaround, but your 1080p videos will be 1082p nevertheless.

There's cropping metadata going to be added to AV1 at some point apparently, but don't hold your breath.

Done this with the #AMD 5600G's iGPU, now testing #Jellyfin hardware transcoding with my #Intel #ArcA380 GPU - one question though, is it normal for CPU usage to be rather high at least in the early parts of streaming (while transcoding), even with hardware transcoding?
I'm just trying to figure out if it is actually hardware transcoding - I'm assuming it is, bcos on the admin dashboard I'm seeing that it's transcoding as AV1 and I'm sure my Ryzen 7 1700 would not be able to do/handle that, esp considering that I'm testing with 4 streams playing concurrently? but the CPU usage is rather high the first minute or two or more from when the stream starts, it does lower down afterwards - the video playback is perfectly fine, no stuttering or anything like that.
My method of passthrough is the same as I did with the 5600G, that is a simple passthrough to the #LXC container, then to the #Docker container running Jellyfin. I don't think I noticed this high CPU usage when testing the 5600G, and the only minor configuration difference between the two was I'd used #VAAPI with the 5600G and disabled #AV1 encoding (since idt it supports it), while on the Arc A380 GPU I'm using Intel's #QSV and have enabled AV1 encoding.
Am I correct to assume that hardware transcoding is indeed working? Cos again, I'm quite certain my Ryzen 7 1700 would definitely NOT be able to handle this lol esp since I only give the LXC container 2 cores.

After upgrading to RX 6800, I managed to get VAAPI working by uninstalling `libva-nvidia-driver` package.
Hardware acceleration seems to be working on Firefox latest.
Did I tell you I have setup open-webui for Ollama? I installed with venv + pip because global level pip install is blocked in #Manjaro
Update: It's probably not a #VAAPI / #VDPAU issue. Went through the #HardwareAcceleration #Arch wiki entry and confirmed both to be working.
