I assume it’s not nvidia. Yet I have no idea how to differentiate between them and neither do I know what a good price is.

Let’s say I don’t want to think about what the video type is. I just want a smooth experience.

      AV1 decode is supported on the RTX 3000 series, encode + decode in the RTX 4000 series

      For Intel Arc, AV1 encode + decode support is present on all Arc Alchemist GPUs,

      For AMD, AV1 decode is on RX 6000 series, encode + decode on all RX 7000 series GPUs

      As someone else has recommended, a low end Intel Arc alchemist GPU is pretty great for stuff like Jellyfin, very low price to entry for gfx accelerated AV1 transcoding.
