    Well the 10600k is like 60$ cheaper.  If you did swap, make sure you know if you use a z590 mobo with a 10 series intel, your top nvme slot wont work.  So either youre ok with that or you need to find a z490 mobo.

     

    As for unraid support for the 11 series intels.  I think its going to be a few months.  They havent even released betas of a new version yet.  Its been a few months since stable release though.

    I will not swap because of the 11gen features I mentioned above I think they are worth it, I'm just not installing it yet as my 7th gen is flawless on the transcode side

    EDIT: Standby, I just retested and now it's broken for me as well again. Seems like they broke something in a newer patch.

     

    EDIT2: Went through all the recent versions and it indeed still shows corruption on the occasional 4K video. I drew the wrong conclusion because of movies that would be corrupted before, now play perfectly. So there are still some codecs or whatever which are not played without corruption unfortunately.

    I still believe this has to do with the Linux kernel support not being there for the 11th gen yet. Since Emby also has the same issue and I do not believe Jellyfin is totally free of this issue either. Really depends on your own library.

    I'm not sure what's wrong as well, in Plex forums they say it's the kernel and in here they say it's a Plex issue

    No, I'm using the docker on Unraid. Are you on plex pass? What are your docker settings? I used to have the corruption a few versions ago, but they have been solved now.

    Must confess that mobo (Asus Z590-E) and processor (11600k) are still in the box as I have a lot of 4k HDR movies and don't want to have downtime of the service, I read several reports of artifacts and no reports of it working perfectly or fixed so I assumed it was still not working, but if you tell me everything is ready I will unbox in no time! Thats great news!

    I got an 11500 and Plex is HW decoding everything now even with HDR. This was broken before, but now it's working fine. What exactly is not working for you? Is the igpu not recognized or do you have an other issue?

    As I understand there are artifacts and corruption on HDR to SDR tone mapping according to users reports

    Not really surprising.  I dont know why anyone would buy the 11th gen for desktop over 10th gen.  10th gen offers more cores and is on huge sales.  11th gen has xe graphics though, but in that case its a negative lol. I just upgraded my servers and went for the 10th gen series specifically because i wanted the higher core count.

    that might be true to i7's and i9's, but on the low end i5's there is a noticeable difference in performance! other additions are Pcie 4.0 (for faster nvme drives), extra x4 lanes on cpu (another nvme slot), dmi x8 with z590 platform and the new igpu graphics have more power to support more transcodings at the same time (if it was properly supported on Plex of course).

     

     In my case since I'm upgrading from 7th gen it doesn't make sense buy a 10gen

    I can also confirm that when using Jellyfin docker container, hardware transcode and tone mapping works correctly on my hardware, so the issues are with Plex, this docker container or a combination.

    It appears almost nobody is running intel 11th gen processors with Plex since they don't even notice it doesn't work

  6. I do have those kind of errors in my log since long time ago, which seems to be harmless since they say corrected.  I tried to hide the errors with some commands suggested here in the forums with no success.

    I don't understand...

    You can mount a Mega share to your local unRAID server with rclone and then synchronize everything and see if it works that way.

     

    Or you can do the backups like in the tutorial since this is almost the same as with CA Backup and they are encrypted too if you use age.

     

    I sync to 3 different providers and have not a single problem, but also have to say that I use my MegaSync Container to sync to Mega and this works also flawlessly.

    Well it's just a minor annoyance, and seems it appears im the only one experiencing it I think it doesn't worth the trouble hehe, I may just delete the older folders which doesn't got deleted and be done with it.  I appreciate that in every question I have you are there to help, thank you man

    I think this has something to do how the Mega sync is working.

    Hope you don't mind me asking if you can try to setup your backup like in the age plugin thread with rclone, third post - you have to modify it a little bit to fit for Mega at Step 5 and the following steps.

    (You don't have to use age for your backups but I think this is a good step by step tutorial and would give you a good idea how to set it up)

     

     

    What is the objetive of doing this??

    Can you wait for at least 7 days, it is possible that Mega caches this files if you turned on the recycle bin.

    Not entirely sure, have no problems with my backups here, I have 9 backup files constantly in my backup folder and if a new backup is created that number doubles to 18 and after the script finishes the 9 old files are deleted and are also deleted on Mega itself.

    19 days after that post this is what it looks like:

    weird thing is some of the backup dates are correctly deleted but not all of them

    Some one reported some issues with the script I wrote in another thread. I pulled the one I've been using off the server and I think it corrected the bug. No warranties on this, I wouldn't say I'm a bash expert. Note: LVSAVEDIR and LVSNAPSHOTDIR are probably different on your machine so change those to what you want.

    thanks for the script!  where do you put it? I put it at array start and ended with /snapshot/snapshot/snapshot. etc

    Yes I can do that.  Will post result after 7 days.  Strange thing is it used to work fine when I first set it up, no changes in config just the unraid and plugins updates.

    Not really eventually @Squid can help but when the file is deleted on the share itself MegaSync will also delete it from the Cloud because it is simply removed from the folder that it watches.

    Right now I have 6 folders in my backup share:

    image.thumb.png.a44154454f414f56508fefc08983e7a2.png

     

    but 7 folders in my synched mega folder:

    image.thumb.png.9db2e811919f3f282e0c384c9b354f97.png

     

    The mega sync docker is running, even if I restart it it doesn't delete the [email protected] extra folder from the cloud.

     

    If I made changes with krusader it does get synched.... but somehow if CA backup delete its it doesn't 

     

    thanks for all the help !

    Yes, but they broke it again if I'm not mistaken, as said from what I know a workaround exists to fix that. :)

    Why should a Kernel upgrade be necessary? :D

    Have you a source to that article?

     

    If you install the Intel GPU TOP plugin you can make use of HW transcoding even with 11th gen.

    well I'm just following this thread: 

    https://forums.plex.tv/t/4k-hdr-hevc-hw-transcoding-is-broken-on-i5-11600k-rocket-lake/707057/47

     

    and specifically in this thread they mention success with the 5.11.0-18 kernel:

    https://forums.plex.tv/t/working-rocket-lake-gpu-with-hdr-the-easy-way-both-docker-and-bare-metal/721200/34

     

     

    Im of course a total n00b I'm just eager to upgrade my ancient i3 7100 with something more recent (i5 11400), I made the switch to 4k HDR (I don't keep SDR versions) so tone mapping for remote clients is a must for me

    If you are using Plex, from what I know this has nothing to do with Intel this is more a problem with Plex itself that it is not done correctly, I think somewhere there is a manual fix for that on the Plex forums that has to be applied by hand and every time the container is updated.

    I was in the believe that Plex support was ready but to work on unraid it needs kernel (5.11) update?

    Install intel-gpu-top for 11th gen and you dont need to create file or syslinux.

     

    Plugin will enable igpu for 11th gen.

     

    You may need to remove file from /boot/config/modprobe.d

    HDR tonemaping works now? or still have issues? (11 gen)

    Have you got a spare hard drive that you can use in UD? I use it a little different, I actually use MegaSync with a share on UD.

     

    Can you try to physically delete a file manually from the folder? If I place a file in the share it takes a moment to synchronize and after I delete the file it takes a moment again to update in the Cloud itself and it of course delete the file.

    I'm away from home and can't connect an UD to test, but If I delete a backup file or folder with krusader it correctly delete it in the cloud, somehow when the ca backup plugin delete them it doesn't work, does that make sense?

  17. Just now, ich777 said:

    Can you be a little more specific, do you create it with the CA Backup?

    Yes, this is correct, I set a daily backup, the target is an array only folder, and set to delete backups older than 7 days, which gives me always a week of backups, correctly.   Mega sync docker uploads them to cloud correctly but after the plugin deletes them mega sync does not delete the cloud copy 

  18. 1 minute ago, ich777 said:

    How do you sync or what did you do exactly?

    I think you are deleting files on the share and it is not deleted in the cloud or am I wrong?

     

    I now tried it and I can't reproduce this.

    When I delete a file from the folder that I have on Unraid for the MegaSync container it also deletes them from the cloud.

    it seems to happen only with CA_backup.tar.gz files and it's folder !  it used to work fine, I only realized its not because of the warning of full cloud space from mega
