What's causing my transcode error?

Client: Roku client 3.0.10 Server: 10.10.7 on Debian Trixie kernel 6.12.48+deb13 amd64 except this time it’s a Samsung R480 instead of the 2017 Intel Macbook Pro I usually use. Which means…
Hardware Acceleration engine VAAPI, vainfo already advised me to only use H/A for H264 and MPEG2.
Still, I can’t get it to work. What am I doing wrong?

Says maybe incorrect parameters. Show the parameters.
Is that like the media parameters? I have that here, please let me know if this isn’t the right thing!
I’m not at my PC so I can’t really research or test, but you could take that command and cut it down until you find the problematic option. The other line about the entrypoint is probably relevant.
I’d validate that hardware acceleration works for the source and destination formats based on your hardware, chosen API, and software versions.
You’ll probably also get more answers if you post on the jellyfin forums.
I think I resolved it! What vainfo didn’t tell me is that while it supports MPEG2 and H264 decoding, it doesn’t support H/W encoding. My transcodes run fine now, though a bit slow (will probably replace with someone’s X1 from eBay…)
