    I guess the question is did you set up VA-API and do you have an processor with integrated graphics?

    When I set my instance up, I had to do just a bit of ID’ing since my processor/MB has a iGPU at device 0 that was for debugging purposes and wasn’t going to be up to snuff for encoding.

      Yes I do have VA-API and no iGPU, so there wasn’t an easy fix.

      I also see the same issue on Bazzite and CachyOS, and the same issue using Apollo and Sunshine. I’ve also deeply investigated network issues as the cause but I think that was a red herring.

      Windows was fine out of the box and has specific AMD gpu codexes that the Linux build doesn’t have (I assume proprietary?) so that seems the most likely cause.
