"Older GPUs" means between the Radeon HD 2000 Series (2007) and Vega 20 (2018) for the decode part, and between the Radeon HD 7000 series (2012) and Vega 20 (2018) for the encode part.

I've still got a R7 260X (2013) in my Proxmox server; I wonder if this will make it more useful for Jellyfin transcoding?

Oh hey that's awesome, maybe I'll put my RX460 back into the jellyfin VM for transcoding. I need to migrate that box anyway.

I knew I shouldn't have given away my 7850!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
