[[Plugin] Nvidia-Driver]

Do you remember if you got the two boxes that I mentioned above 'Use hardware acceleration when available' and 'Use hardware-accelerated video encoding' when you got that problem with the binhex container?

Yes, they were ticked before and after the upgrade. I also tried unticking them and activating them again. Once I unticked them, the software transcoding worked. When I had them checked, it was just a black screen and not working. And I also always had the PLEXCLAIM variable added.

I don't think it's an issue with the linuxserver image, since I had the same problem with the binhex plex container. So my guess is rather some issue happening when upgrading from 6.8 to the 6.9 beta with an existing plex container.

For instance is it possible to make the binhix app data and media container mappings the same as the existing Linuxserver's container? Obviously I wouldnt change the containers mappings just the host's.

I switched from binhex plex to binhex plexpass and was able to keep everything as is. Just changed the name of the image to pull from dockerhub. I'd expect that it should work switching from a different image as well.

I am unable to get the linux server version to hardware transcode with beta 35 installed and all the right configurations in the docker. NVIDIA SMI can be seen in the consol but the application is not using it to decode files. Anyone else having this issue?

If you read through the thread just a couple of posts above, you'll notice multiple users reporting the same issue. Switching to binhex plexpass container seemed to fix the issue for everyone so far...

I had an issue with the linuxserver plex container. For some reason even with all of the correct parameters it would not do hardware accelerated encoding. My nvidia-smi process showed no use. I added the same parameters to the binhex plexpass container and everything started working correctly. I am using Unraid 6.9.0 beta 35. Thanks to ich777 for the suggestion.

Sounds pretty similar to my issue with the binhex plex container. After switching to binhex plexpass everything worked fine.

I am having issue with the plugin all together in 6.8.3.  When I click on the plugin, I get the following (No options to choose any version for installation/upgrade).

The plugin is not compatible to 6.8.3, you'll need the latest beta release 6.9.0-beta35 for this to work.

Thanks a lot @ich777 for all your work!

 

Already reached out to @ich777 via PM, but adding this here to see if someone is experiencing the same issue:

 

I upgraded to 6.9.0-beta35 from the 6.8.3 nvidia kernel with hardware transcoding working in all containers (Plex, Jellyfin, etc.). After successful installation of the nvidia-plugin, the graphics card is showing up in settings and nvidia-smi, but I am unable to get hardware transcoding to work. As soon as I activate hardware transcoding in Plex, I get a black screen instead of the video. Software transcoding works fine.

 

Already tried uninstalling the plugin and reinstalling it, rebooted multiple times, removed and added the variables for the containers, to no effect.

 

Anyone else experiencing the same issue or any idea what could be the problem?

 

---------

EDIT: I have managed to get hardware transcoding to work in Jellyfin, but still no luck with Plex...

 

EDIT2: Switching docker-images from binhex/arch-plex to binhex/arch-plexpass did the trick. Hardware transcoding is working flawlessly now. Thanks @ich777!

The log shows this error, and the error is just repeated endlessly.

 

[4mSequelize CLI [Node: 10.18.1, CLI: 5.5.0, ORM: 5.8.12][24m

Loaded configuration file "../../config/config.json".

[31mERROR:[39m getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND codimd codimd:3306

 

I am getting the exact same error message. MariaDB is running on IP X.X.X.11 and I have set the environment variable accordingly (DB_HOST and CMD_DB_URL like stated in the config.json). Still, the error message is showing that codimd is looking for the database on the IP X.X.X.26 (which is the IP address for the codimd container). Any ideas anyone?
