Does anyone have a compose.yaml for an Nvidia GPU that works that they would like to share? Here’s my current file, it gives a white screen with “server error” on it: https://pastebin.com/AaV17cTz
I went through Jellyfin’s instructions on setting a GPU up, but the instructions weren’t clear (in my opinion) so who knows if it’s correct. I installed some Nvidia tools as a prerequisite and ‘nvidia-smi’ shows the card. I attached my Jellyfin settings from before it self-destructed according to Nvidia’s transcoding matrix (which also wasn’t descriptive enough in my opinion), do they look right for a 2080?
Update: after making this post, and changing nothing, it suddenly works

Here’s mine, no judging for how I set the ip

I had to do something to get it working, but it’s been forever.
The biggest concern here would be 1) have you installed the Nvidia container toolkit, and 2) how are you passing the GPU into the Jellyfin docker container.
I’ve got an Ansible-playbook that takes care of the Nvidia stuff. I’ve also got a compose file I can share. Will edit this post when I can provide a link.
- yes
- in my compose file, I’ve set the extra variables that (supposedly) pass the GPU according to Jellyfin’s instructions
Here are some relevant stuff, also have nvidia drivers and vids libs installed.

I have an intel igpu. It was hella painful to pass through the guy into a normal container and I never figured it out. I just ended up running the container with the —privileged flag. QuickSync hwaccel works fine now, I assume it would be the same for NVENC, since the flag basically just passes everything to the container.
Huh? I have an ARC A380 and I just followed the tutorial. AFAICT everything’s working fine.
Man, I have an intel iGPU myself, in a little Dell optiplex 7090 and it was a breeze on my Debian sever. Installed through apt and it’s running as a systemd service. No issues so far. Only one issue I had was when I played a 70GB 4k HDR movie that’s loaded with audio and subs and picture enhancements on my OLED TV. The server’s little fan was screaming and the movie kept pausing every 20 seconds. Other than that I have a ton of other movies and shows and I have no issues.
I use Intel too and had a heck of a time getting things working with portainer. Turns out portainer only worked with Nvidia (at least the version I used when I set it up). If I spun up the container via terminal, it worked.
I think a newer version may have added compatibility because I don’t remember jumping through hoops with Immich.
This works for me, rtx 4050
