FFMpeg crashing continuously

I'm running Frigate in a proxmox LXC with igpu passthough.

I've access to both vaapi and qsv. Now even though it's working detection and everything but logs are riddled with errors.

What I'm doing wrong?

[Scale] Auto TRIM On/Off

My pool is 4x raidz1 HDD with 2nvme special VDEV (with small_blocks~512K).

On storage page i can see the option to enable/disable Auto TRIM. Ideally i should enable this for nvme.

Should i enable this in UI?

[Scale] Suggest use for 2 NVME disks

I've a small 64gb nvme for boot drive and 4x 22TB HDD for storage. Now how should I utilize 2x 3.84 TB Samsung PM983 nvme disks?

Use case: I only need it as storage server as i've separate servers for running app/services.
