I have a solution to this pixelation during playback issue on Jellyfin media server. Please go to playback selection and under transcoding change the setting for Muxing que from 2048 to 4000 and re-attempt playback of the same pixelated movies.
SOLUTION.....solve it this way.
Max muxing queue size:
Maximum number of packets that can be buffered while waiting for all streams to initialize. Try to increase it if you still encounter "Too many packets buffered for output stream" error in ffmpeg logs. The recommended value is 2048.
Increase it to 4000 and try again. It worked like a charm for me and I had big gross blobs of pixelated goo all over my screen just like you did. This is the only way I have found that works and solves the problem and it transcodes beautifully at 4000.
<<<<<<<<SOLVED!!!>>>>>>>>
Here is a sample video clip of what my blob goo transcode problem looks like

HERE IS THE SOLUTION: NOTE CPU USAGE IS ONLY HIGH BECAUSE I AM SIMULTANIOUSLY SCANNING MY JELLYFIN LIBRARY AFTER A FRESH INSTALL AND USING TDAR TO REMOVE IMBEDDED SUBS PROCESSES GOING ON.

Thank you for the suggestion. I tired this fix and unfortunately I am still having the same problem. This only happens on LiveTV with standard definition channels. All media playback works fine other than the LiveTV. All of my other settings are default with a virus NVENC enabled just for reference.
