I'm transcoding everything into h264. There's 5 video encoder options for h264. Is one better then the other? Which one would be the better one to use? Thanks

Hello, A few questions. does only one worker transcode one movie at a time? or can multiple workers transcode the same movie? What does everyone think of the output quality? How does it compare to say something like using handbrake? I just had it do one movie for me and it only reduced the file size by a couple of gigs. I'm having it transcode from MKV to MP4. Thanks

Thanks for everyone's help. I ran the memtest which took like 4 days to complete. It didn't come up with any errors. I ended up just pulling out all the ram and reseating them. I haven't had anymore machine errors since. Thanks

I'm running the memtest now. The bios log only said communication error it didn't say anything specific about ram.

Not for about 5 years since I put the server together. Should I run one? Sent from my LM-Q720 using Tapatalk

Hello, My log is getting alot of Machine Check Event errors. Not sure what the issue is. Here's my log. syslog.txt

For a while now Ive been getting an error message while trying to play trailers through plex. CONVERSION FAILED. THE TRANSCODER EXITED DUE TO AN ERROR. Any one else get this error? I would like to be able to play the trailers for the movies I have on plex. Thanks Sent from my LG-G710 using Tapatalk

I had a similar problem with my fire tv box. It would shutter for a few seconds every few minutes. I ended up downgrading the plex app on fire tv and everything is working great. Not sure about the web Chrome but it should work for your Android device. I followed this https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/286319/how-to-downgrade-to-older-version-of-plex-on-firetv Sent from my LG-LS993 using Tapatalk

Well I never got a response from Dell so I went ahead and used the steps from https://digitalcardboard.com/blog/2014/07/09/flashing-it-firmware-to-the-lsi-sas-9211-8i-hba-2014-efi-recipe/ I went ahead and used the 9207-8i IT firmware that Fireball3 posted and it looks like it worked. I didn't get any errors. After I flashed everything it's still showing it a 9217-8i but it's in IT Mode and not IR mode. I still need to put it in my server to verify everything boots up and works, which I'll do shortly but it's looking promising. Just want to give a big thanks to everyone in these forums for all the help you give everyone. Thanks Chris Sent from my LG-LS993 using Tapatalk

Hello, I'm just wondering what's the best way to copy files from my unraid shares to my phone over wifi? These will all be small audio book files under a gig. Right now I just attach the phone to one of my computers via USB cable. Not sure if it's possible but there's a way. Thanks Sent from my LG-LS993 using Tapatalk

Thanks for the reply. I'll email Dell to see if they have any stock firmware for the 9217 and or ask if flashing the 9207 FW will work with the 9217. I'll update if and when I get an answer Dell. Thanks Sent from my LG-LS993 using Tapatalk

Hello, I just purchased a Dell SAS 9217-8i GTP9G PCI Express x8 6Gbps 8-port SAS/SATA RAID Card. Can anyone point to the correct firmware I need to flash this into IT Mode. I've tried to read up on it and I'm still not sure what firmware I need. The help is always appreciated. Thanks, Chris Sent from my LG-LS993 using Tapatalk

Hello, I just bought a Dell SAS 9217-8i GTP9G PCI Express x8 6Gbps 8-port SAS/SATA RAID Card on eBay. I should have checked before but is this a good controller? It sounds like I need to flash into IT mode. Is it difficult to flash? My setup: Motherboard: AsRock EP2C602-4L/D16 CPU: 2 x Intel Xeon e5-2670 Total of 9 hard drives. 2 will be put on the on board sata connectors and the other 7 will use the card above.

Hello, I'm hoping one of you have ran into this. I have trailer files for every movie I have. They sit inside the same folder as the regular movie but with a - trailer at the end of the file name. How would I stop radarr from thinking that the trailer file needs to be upgraded to a Bluray quality file? It's done this to me a few time so now I have 2 Jaws 1080p movie files instead of one movie file and a trailer file. I would rather not have to put the trailers in a separate folder as I have well over 1000 movies with trailers within the main movie folder. Thanks, Chris

Is there any testing I can do on the CPU or should I look at replacing it?

Hello, I received the following message in my log this morning. Can any of you help decipher it. It looks like a problem with my CPU?

Hello, I have tried this docker a few times before. One of the main reasons I haven't used it exclusively is that I continually get THE REQUEST TO RTORRENT HAS TIMED OUT message. The docker just gets real sluggish while I'm getting this message and it's almost unusable. Any one knows what causes this message? And what I can do to fix it if anything. I'm currently using the Delugevpn docker with no issues. I would really like to use this docker instead as I prefer it's layout and options over Delugevpn. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, Was wondering if someone can take a look at my Diagnostics log. Just had a few random server reboots as I was editing one of my VM's. I was just trying to change the mouse and keyboard it uses and changing it back to VNC. Not sure if that was the cause or not. Only big change I've done to it was to install an Rx480 two weeks ago. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks tower1-diagnostics-20170301-1800.zip

Great, I'll add that port. Thanks for the quick response. Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

Hello, I just ran the Fix Problems plugin and I getting the message below. Docker Application binhex-delugevpn, Container Port 58946 not found or changed on installed application Anyone know why I'm getting this message? I haven't changed anything since I started using DelugeVPN several months ago. The port in the docker say 58846 not 58946. I did change the port in the docker to 58946 just to see what it would do and I get the same message after I re-scan the Fix Problems plugin. Thanks

I just searched within unraid as that's what I use. Thanks for the response. I'll give the RX 470 a try. Thanks Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk

Hello, Just checking to see if anyone is using the RX 470 for GPU pass thru to a win 10 vm? I currently have a cheap GPU I pass thru but wanted to upgrade to the RX 470 so my son has a little more gaming power? I searched but didn't see anything about this specific GPU.

Sorry about that here it is. tower1-diagnostics-20170201-1736.zip

Hello, In need of some h help. The fix common problems plugin is giving me the following error. "Your server has issued one or more call traces. This could be caused by a Kernel Issue, Bad Memory, etc. You should post your diagnostics and ask for assistance on the unRaid forums" So here's my diagnostics file. I'm guessing you just need my log. Any help on how to fix this would be much appreciated. Thanks, Chris syslog.zip
