We should be careful about normalizing the use of scmp as a news source here. While they can be reputable in some areas, at large they are quite biased.
I would hope that people here don’t want this community to take the same path as the .ml news communities.
On Linux VA-API works really well for AMD video encoding. I have a small home server with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600G and my experience has been excellent.
The only downside is that some companies decided hardware decoding violated some patent and disabled hardware encoding in the default va-api package. You just need to switch to the freeworld version of va-api and everything works well.
