Since I have already setted up Jellyfin with Docker Manager image/container, someone told me to do the following to edit the container steps to enable hardware transcoding:
1) Enable high permission to execute the container. (This is below the Enviroment Variables)
2) click the Add button in the Environment Variables section and type in these exact fields:
Key Value
PUID 1000
PGID 1000
TZ America/Toronto (or your actual local timezone city)
3) Goto Jellyfin and turn on Intel QuickSync inside Jellyfin settings.
Is this correct since I have no experience with Jellyfin and F4-424 with Docker manager. Thanks in advance.

Does not matter as long as the log is now the right time, it was about 8 hours ahead.

Finally found out how to do it, need to create a project and add the following to it and only need to change to adjust it to your settings, it is working now.
version: '3.8'
services:
jellyfin:
image: jellyfin/jellyfin:latest
container_name: jellyfin
restart: unless-stopped
network_mode: 'bridge'
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=1000
- TZ=America/Toronto
ports:
- 8096:8096
- 8920:8920 # Optional HTTPS port
