Hello,
I've searched around a fair amount, and I think I understand what's going on/what I'm waiting for, but I'd like to ask explicitly to make sure I'm not munging things!
Per the title, I've built a Celeron N5105 based box to run TrueNAS Core. There wasn't too much thought put into Core vs Scale, so, assuming I could migrate my datasets, I'd be willing to switch if it meant I could get hardware acceleration for Plex.
I followed https://github.com/danb35/freenas-iocage-plex to get a jail setup with Plex, which is working well. I went on to look into hardware acceleration on my TrueNAS Core 13.1u4 box:
...but I failed at this hurdle:
As I understand it, with no `/dev/dri`, there's no chance of getting hardware acceleration working? Via https://github.com/kern2011/Freenas-Quicksync I landed on https://wiki.freebsd.org/Graphics/Intel-GPU-Matrix which says:
Do I have to wait for https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/...pport-in-Linux-Kernels#lts-and-latest-kernels to show a tick in the box for EHL, JSL, DG1, ADL-S and then wait for it to come through drm-kmod/drm-devel-kmod and then make it into a TrueNAS Core release?
Sorry if I've gone completely off on the wrong path, I've been on a journey trying to understand what's going on and would appreciate a second pair of eyes!
Many thanks

...however, that page was last updated 2020-12-21T14:43:54+0000. Looking at https://github.com/freebsd/drm-kmod/releases, suggests that 5.4 is probably still accurate - the last release says:On FreeBSD 13, using drm-kmod, support is the same as on Linux 5.4
On FreeBSD 13, using drm-devel-kmod, support is the same as on Linux 5.4. This includes support for Intel Core gen 12.
Do I have to wait for https://github.com/Intel-Media-SDK/...pport-in-Linux-Kernels#lts-and-latest-kernels to show a tick in the box for EHL, JSL, DG1, ADL-S and then wait for it to come through drm-kmod/drm-devel-kmod and then make it into a TrueNAS Core release?
