- Raspberry Pi is currently not supported.
- Two-pass mode is only supported for NVENC. Other APIs will ignore this setting.
- By default, only encoding is currently hardware accelerated. This means the CPU is still used for software decoding and tone-mapping.
- NVENC and RKMPP can be fully accelerated by enabling hardware decoding in the video transcoding settings.
- You can benefit from end-to-end acceleration by enabling hardware decoding in the video transcoding settings.
- Hardware dependent
- Codec support varies, but H.264 and HEVC are usually supported.
- Notably, NVIDIA and AMD GPUs do not support VP9 encoding.

4. In the Admin page under `Video transcoding settings`, change the hardware acceleration setting to the appropriate option and save.
5. (Optional) If using a compatible backend, you may enable hardware decoding for optimal performance.
