Original Pull Request: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pull/11217

State: closed
Merged: Yes

Changes

These legacy codecs are not implemented with hardware-accelerated decoding in VideoToolbox and were using VideoToolbox's software fallback decoding before. Since ffmpeg now only allows software fallback for HEVC, enabling those codecs will cause VT session creation to fail. Remove them now.

This also added missing VP8 config to VideoToolbox, fixed hardware decoding for VP8 videos. It was using software decoding even enabled by user.
