How to do hardware decoding of video?
#3
Doesn't Emby use its built-in ffmpeg by default?  How would I go about configuring those two things?  I don't see anything in any of Emby's settings that mentions ffmpeg or drm.  Armbian came with mpv installed, but it wasn't able to decode an HEVC test file I tried using hardware decoding.  The player spat out this error before falling back to software decoding:

Code:
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns -1
libva error: va_getDriverName() failed with unknown libva error,driver_name=(null)

Which seems to suggest to me that there is something I need to install to allow hardware decoding to work...  Are there specific OS images that have all the needed components working out of the box, or is there a particular OS that at least can have the needed components installed/configured with some simple instruction?
