Does Plex have any support for Non-GPU video accelerators like from Advantec for example [https://advdownload.advantech.com/productfile/PIS/VEGA-3314/file/VEGA-3314\_DS(110220)20201104110820.pdf](https://advdownload.advantech.com/productfile/PIS/VEGA-3314/file/VEGA-3314_DS(110220)20201104110820.pdf)

If you can make it work using COTS libva drivers then it will work.

Commercial equipment is not supported.

Not for commercial use, and I realize this particular unit is priced well above a typical GPU, just a general question about accelerators in general, but good to know there is a path if brave enough… 😉
