Proxmox-for-Channels: Step-by-Step for Creating a Chrome-Capture-for-Channels (cc4c) LXC Container

Thanks for the terrifc guide - I have this deployed in a ProxMox Container and it does work but I can't seem to get hardware encoding working, decode does work according to Chrome's GPU page.

For reference I am using a system with an i7-13700H. Encoding works for other containters (channels, scrypted & plex). Am I missing something or is it not possible? There is a lot of dated discussions saying it's not possible yet I see other people saying it works.

AFAIK it is not possible for chrome to use h/w encoding. Many people have tried but it does not work.

Thanks for clearing that up!

since i'm fairly new to LXC containers - since this is headless how can i run a display or chrome on the container to add user credentials

Both this LXC version, and the Docker version of cc4c support VNC, so once you have an active stream -- connect using a VNC client and enter your credentials.
