not OP, but this has reared its ugly face once or twice with my friends.
i have been running into another issue, though it may be a firefox issue: playing some filetypes fail to play on web browser but work fine on jellyfin app (i believe my settings are correct for hardware decode on server where it can)
i still have to put some time into figuring it out tho (havent really done my research yet)

oh! thank you! this is the answer :(
though... it kinda makes me want to buy a cheepie intel card just to get that sweet, sweet AV1
I've actually had the opposite issue where it runs fine on my web browser but does not play on my TV.
