### Intel-based CPUs (<10th Generation) via Quicksync
### Intel-based CPUs (<10th Generation) via VAAPI
VAAPI supports automatic profile selection so it will work automatically with both H.264 and H.265 streams. VAAPI is recommended for all generations of Intel-based CPUs if QSV does not work.
```yaml
ffmpeg:
hwaccel_args: preset-vaapi
```
**NOTICE**: With some of the processors, like the J4125, the default driver `iHD` doesn't seem to work correctly for hardware acceleration. You may need to change the driver to `i965` by adding the following environment variable `LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965` to your docker-compose file or [in the frigate.yml for HA OS users](advanced.md#environment_vars).
### Intel-based CPUs (>=10th Generation) via Quicksync
QSV must be set specifically based on the video encoding of the stream.
#### H.264 streams
```yaml
ffmpeg:
hwaccel_args: preset-intel-qsv-h264
```
#### H.265 streams
```yaml
ffmpeg:
hwaccel_args: preset-intel-qsv-h265
```
### AMD/ATI GPUs (Radeon HD 2000 and newer GPUs) via libva-mesa-driver
VAAPI supports automatic profile selection so it will work automatically with both H.264 and H.265 streams.
**Note:** You also need to set `LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=radeonsi` as an environment variable on the container.
```yaml
