State: closed
Merged: Yes


I am a macOS user and I am glad that Jellyfin supports videotoolbox in version 10.6.
But I found that Jellyfin cannot use videotoolbox for hardware decoding.
This is caused by a missing parameter -hwaccel in ffmpeg.
I tried to fix this problem and tested it.
It works now.
