Works fine for me (doesn't help much, but...)

Just the Superhub. I'm in a town where CityFibre are currently laying Vodafone FTTP, so I'm in the queue there. Oddly enough, I was looking at speedtest last night - sometimes couldn't connect at all, sometimes slow, sometimes great. Trying to work out whether I'd got the latest 35 meg upload speed increase (I have). I don't know much about Virgin's infrastructure (or networks in general), but Speedtest seemed to work better if speedtest connected to a Virgin server... Fast.com seemed to get reliable results though. I'll have a look at your findings later - thanks for sharing

I've done the latter - got myself a better router (then built a pfSense box), and run it in modem mode (an old SuperHub was massively unreliable). Get decent speeds, but worth doing anyway - saves you having to reconfigure everything when your ISP/box changes.

For now I've done something I probably shouldn't have. I have kept full backups... Stop Docker Move all dbs to backup Start docker without dbs and go through initial setup to connect to Plex Stop docker Copy backed up dbs back into main Start docker I'm guessing that's a bad thing, but I'm just playing for now and can rebuild if need be. I have my settings option back, and all settings seem OK. Technically, I'm guessing a browser issue that was solved by flushing a Plex re-connection? Either way, I'm on for now. And viewing the settings.db in DB Browser, I'm pretty sure I can manually recreate a clean build.

Thought so, yes. Am I getting mixed up between a Plex user and an Ombi user (am I logging in with Plex when I might have an Ombi account)? Up until recently login "just happened", and it's a while since I set it up. Chrome has another account remembered together with a password (which is one I'd use for local stuff), but I'm getting incorrect un/pw. Sorry for being vague - I set it up ages ago and haven't needed to get in since. Wanted to get in and test the email settings, since I hadn't received a weekly mail for a while.

Logged out, deleted cookies for this site, cleared all cache, restarted chrome, CTRL+F5 on Ombi & logged in. No change I'm afraid.

Hi - think I've broken Ombi... Was having problems accessing, so have tried rolling back to 132 and/or deleting schedules.db Still couldn't get on, so backed up the other 3 db files, removed the docker, removed the appdata folder, reinstalled and copied back the db files using latest version I can get in again now using my main Plex account (which I always thought was how I used it), but I'm not getting any options/settings - all as if I'm getting 3rd party access The "Requests" tab loads no content, and I get the error in Chrome's console "Cannot read property 'toUpperCase' of undefined" twice when I click on it This is all from local usage on Unraid RC7, recently rebooted and docker img rebuilt Is there anything I can do to fix it? Is there any more information I can provide? Am I being stupid?!

Absolutely, yes. It just reminded me that I was possibly one error away from the same issue. Good call on backing up to a USB drive. I have one lying around - not sure why I've never thought of it. Thankfully the community's way ahead of me! Plus thanks @jonathanm for that guide. This weekend will be spent putting things right.

Good advice. I keep forgetting to keep my backup up to date (and remember where I've stored it). CA-Backup / Restore does automate a backup of the flash, yes? But since it's to an Unraid share you might not be able to access it in an emergency.

Got it back up and running using this - thank you. Once I'd re-made the changes to the conf file to get it through my pfsense router I was back in (which fortunately I had a copy of). Thanks for your help.

I noticed something had changed a few versions ago. When moving a single file/folder I *sometimes* get a progress bar, but not always. The only way I know something is going on is that the cursor/tab keys do not move anything until it's completed. I'm pretty sure that you *used* to get a full progress panel, with file count, speed, time remaining, etc., when moving single files/folders. Now that only appears if you're dealing with multiple files/folders. I'm guessing that mc got a version bump somewhere along the line, but that's about as far as my knowledge extends. (I actually came onto the forum to search for a different mc question - when running in the browser, I'm not sure how you trigger an F5 (copy), as that just refreshes the window. I've been pressing F9 to bring up the dropdown and getting it from there.)

I'm way out of my depth, but I'd guess that Handbrake would be blissfully unaware that it had stopped and restarted and the output would be fine. Just like pausing the copy/move of a file/folder in windows and resuming. Hopefully one of the tech lifeguards will chime in and throw me a life ring.

So if Handbrake is in the middle of doing something at the end of the session, it will resume where it left off when starting back up again rather than being blitzed (I assume)

yep

Yes, all other traffic by default will still use your main connection. You can route other traffic through this docker's VPN, so if anything else needs security use this docker as a proxy. Typically a VPN will only allow so many concurrent connections on an account. By routing all home VPN traffic through one docker, it counts as one connection. See SpaceInmvaderOne's video for more.

Current version has had the unpacking issue for some time. Solution a couple of pages back is to install previous version...

Thanks - I'll give that a go.

Hi - I'm a bit lost on this. What steps did you take to get it running on an -RC version?

I've done similar - I've shared several folders to the docker and they show up as choices when adding/scanning - "SD", "HD", "Shorts", etc.

That's the spirit! Some of my projects at work have more comment than code.

6.6.7 is still lower than 6.7, which is in -RC5 state at the moment. AFAIK, Community Applications will only return results compatible with your version. Either wait until 6.7 is out or install 6.7-RC5.

Enable Hardware Decoding in Plex #!/bin/bash con="plex" echo "" echo "<font color='red'><b>Applying hardware decode patch...</b></font>" echo "<hr>" docker exec -i $con mv "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex Transcoder" "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex Transcoder2" docker exec -i $con /bin/sh -c 'printf "#!/bin/sh\nexec /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex\ Transcoder2 -hwaccel nvdec "\""\$@"\""" > "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex Transcoder";' docker exec -i $con chmod +x "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex Transcoder" docker exec -i $con chmod +x "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex Transcoder2" docker restart $con echo "" echo "<font color='red'><b>Done!</b></font>" Description: Translation of manual steps required to patch Plex docker to enable hardware decoding if you're running an Nvidia version of Unraid. Quick Start: Set up and run as a script every time Plex updates. If your container is not called "plex", change the "con" variable (see notes) Disclaimer: If it can be improved (or if it's dangerously wrong), please let me know. Notes: Should be run when Plex is installed/updated From the command line, run "docker ps" to see what your plex container is called. Set that as the "con" variable in your script (mine is "plex") This script is only required until Plex officially supports hardware decoding It preforms the same as recommended in the NVidia plugin support thread here (where it was originally published), namely... Renames the file "Plex Transcoder" to "Plex Transcoder2" Creates a new "Plex Transcoder" file with the suggested contents Changes permissions on both "Plex Transcoder" and "Plex Transcoder2" files (not sure it's required on Transcoder2 - seemed to work for me without) Restarts the Plex container (not sure if required, but doing it anyhow) Probably best nothing is playing whilst the script is run You'll need to have Plex running for the script to work. Would require different code if stopped (would probably be safer to stop the container first, make the changes then start again, but here we are) Run "nvidia-smi dmon -s u" from the terminal (not within Plex container) to check whether the decoding is working. Set a video to play in a transcoded state, and the 3rd and 4th columns from the end should be non-zero This includes the "exec" addition to the Plex Transcoder file contents Good luck!

There may be a valid reason why this is not done already, but if you edit the name of the script, could it also update the name of the corresponding folder in the user.scripts\scripts directory? When I'm working on something I'll often call it something like "z docker testing" to put it at the end of the list. When finished, I rename it, but it still stays at the bottom. I'm guessing the plugin sorts the scripts list by folder name?

Waiting for an -RC5 version of the nvidia plugin. I was having spin up issues on -RC4 so had to roll back. Once that's available I'll go for it.

Will do, thank you
