So here are my results converting 4K to 1080P Single Transcode
Multiple Transcodes
You are correct, CPU did increase, while GPU did not, but all three report HW transcoding and this is from an ADM Ryzen 5 5500U with Radeon iGPU
This was with the three transcodes above all running.
If your GPU is older, not sure what is officially supported by Plex. Might be worth a look through their forums for your GPU and see what other's experience with it is.

Care to share how you got this working?
I just upgraded from an old intel to the 7900 and transcoding pegs out all cores with no hit on the iGPU. I had things working with the intel.
See my post above from Aug 20, it has instructions for enabling HW transcoding using official Plex container and AMD GPU.

Firstly I can't seem to find AMD-Top. Secondly i did everything else and now can select my GPU as a transcoder device, but now all my streams buffer super hard every 5 seconds. im using an RX 580 8GB. Am I doing something wrong?
Apologies, the plugin is actually called Radeon Top, not AMD. Install the plugin and restart.

Mindaboveall, I'm a newbie at Unraid, and just switched over from VM Virtual Box for my Plex server, for the reason of using my Radeon 7900 to transcode since VM Box doesn't allow GPU passthrough. I have my Plex (Pass) server up and running on Unraid, and I have the "Enable hardware transcoding" selected in plex, but I am still not getting the GPU to transcode.
Your last post said Plex now supports AMD GUPs, can you point me in the right direction to where I can find out how to get this set up?
Thanks!
I figured this out based on the info above, first, make sure you have the Radeon-Top plugin installed and working. Install the "Official" Plex docker, I was unable to get this to work with Binhex or Linuxserver (possible the AMD drivers are not installed). On the install template page, click "Add another Path, Port, Variable, Label, or Device", change config type to Device, give it a name (I used AMD GPU), for value enter "/dev/dri:/dev/dri" (without quotes). Complete the remaining setup (specify your local media folder and set a transcode directory, preferrably a location on your cache pool) and click apply to create the docker. After setup, dont forget to enable hardware transcoding (requires plex pass) in the plex settings.
This is working great with my Ryzen 5 5500U with Radeon iGPU. I was able to test 4 simultaneous HW transcodes (1080p HEVC to SD). -
Can anyone confirm if the RustDesk-AIO is compatible with the new PRO option from the RustDesk team?

Please do a single stream iperf test in both directions, with this driver and the stock one.
Here are the results of the iperf tests with the driver installed.
I neglected to test before reinstalling the driver.

In these Diagnostics the plugin isn't even installed, please install this plugin:
...reboot and then post the new Diagnostcis.
Please also be aware that maybe the IP address from Unraid can/will change after installing this plugin.
CA showed the driver plugin was already installed, I went ahead and removed it, rebooted, then reinstalled from CA and then rebooted again. Performance is still the same, new diagnostic file is attached.

Do you have any other 2.5G card to test? Maybe a R8156 USB network card?
Some old 10Gbe chips do not support negotiate with 2.5G speed.
This card is built on to my mobo, MSI H510I Pro WiFi I do have a Plugable USBC-E2500 that uses the R8156 chipset. I included a diagnostic file this time, sorry for omitting it the first time around.

I installed the driver and restarted, however performance is not good, when connected to my gigabit switch, I am seeing 100+ mbps transferring to and from the Unraid server, when connected to my 10gbe switch, I am getting 217 mbps FROM my Unraid server, but only 18 mbps TO the Unraid server. Cache drive on the server is functioning normally, so it is not a write speed issue. I have not removed the driver yet, but I did put my connection back on the gigabit switch until I can determine why.

First off, thanks to the author of this docker and to the members who provided the instructions for setup. It was a very easy setup after reading through this thread.
I was wondering if the noip.conf can be edited to update two domains from separate noip accounts? If so, do you just duplicate the info a second time with the second account info?
Plex Hardware Transcoding using docker with AMD iGPU Ryzen 7900

Are you using the "Official" Plex container? I was unable to get it to work using LSIO or Binhex Plex containers. Did you enable HW transcoding in the Plex settings? Can you post a picture of the container settings? I will try to help as much as possible, but can only really share what worked for me.
