Original Pull Request: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pull/7708

State: closed
Merged: Yes


Changes

  • Add Vulkan filtering support for AMD VAAPI (Vega and newer/gfx9+, kernel>= 5.15),
    including HWA subtitles burn-in and HDR tonemapping without using AMD's buggy OpenCL stack.

  • Dolby Vision P5&P8 to SDR tonemapping is partially supported on AMD VAAPI.

Note

  • This PR requires jellyfin-ffmpeg5 5.0.1-2 and newer.

  • Linux kernel version should be equal or newer than 5.15 since some DRM changes are newly added. (uname -r)

  • For Polaris and older/gfx8- cards, the essential vulkan extension VK_EXT_image_drm_format_modifier hasn't been implemented, which requires many changes in Mesa and linux kernel.
