Hi, I am looking to make my first dedicated jellyfin server rather than running it on my desktop, but don’t know what gpu to get. I will have only a few users and want to avoid Nvidia because I will be on linux + foss drivers. Any recommendations?

    I run my Jellyfin on an HP sff PC and keep all my files are my big NAS. This lets me take advantage of Intel’s Quicksync for my transcoding which seems to be the easiest and best way to transcode. Also much more power efficient than running a standalone GPU.

      I run Jellyfin off a RPi4 mounted behind my TV (I got it before the shortage), and also use a NAS with music folders mounted on the Pi
