Hardware Transcoding new build

I have a new build and can't get hardware transcoding working. I usually run it with the TVE docker, and that didn't work. I built my own container (based on ubuntu bionic and focal) and have that running as a user and adding that user to video groups (based on linuxserver.io's plex container) and everything works there except hardware transcoding. I also tried running it directly on my server, and still no hardware transcoding.

I got it to at least recognize hardware transcoding with a pretty generic ffmpeg build (but I'm missing a lot of your build configuration/dependencies). Guessing it just needs updated for the new 10th gen iHardware.

Yea 10th-gen is currently not supported. See previous discussion in NUC 10i3

@tmm1 hi there, any word on 10 series getting this? Or does it exist and I’m just missing it?

It should work now, what OS are you running Channels on?

I see it now! I swear it wasn’t just there yesterday.
