unraid1-diagnostics-20221031-1425.zip I'm trying to figure out why my system is pegging cpu 0. Do I need a faster processor? Is there something I need to do to get this to thread better? I'm running Ryzen 9 3900x 128 GB of DDR4 2133MHz RAM I can't figure out why I'm pegging my CPU 0 all the time.

You can leave it, it won't use it if you aren't using the nvidia based plugin

I looked into this and you can configure the app to use an ssd to cache to, then have a post download process move the data. we are using unraid to do this (if you choose) so we don’t care

You are using the nvec encoder. That’s only for nvidia cards. you need to use the libx encoder you are using the nvidia encoder (nvec) you need to use the libx264 or libx265 encoder. your procs are quite old and wont run h265. I would stay away from that unless you want to spring for a GPU

I'm looking at standing this up, but I'm wondering it if I can have two instances running as a cluster? Or in sync type scenario?

I tried to do this and never could get jellyfin/swag configured right. I tried for several months this last spring. Maybe I'll make another go at it. I think my issue was I couldn't get the name right for the jellyfin container or it was that I didn't want to use the private network, since most of my watching is done locally. I have a bonus coming up so I'll give emby a whirl for a month and see how I like it compared to Plex.

I've been a long time Plex Pass holder. I've looked at moving to Jellyfin, but have never been happy with the level of security with a self run reverse proxy/ssl combo. This is mostly because I don't know enough to be confident I can make it or keep it secure. I was looking around and re-discovered emby. I'm interested in hearing people's thoughts on Emby and why or why not to use it. Really I'm interested in the reasons it seems to be a less suggested tool. Seems like it's basically Plex from 2015, which is pretty much what I want.

It would be useful if we could have, built into the docker manager, a function to turn docker containers on and off based on timing. So a container gets turned on at noon and turned off at 3 PM. Or a container has been powered off for 18 hours, turn it on again. I know you can do this with scripts, but you can do most things with scripts. The better way is to have a built-in function.

I have two instances of this app, one for me and one for my wife. I'm logged in on both and they write to separate directories /mnt/user/icloud/eagle470 mnt/user/icloud/wife I cannot keep the app running. It shuts off after just a few minutes. thoughts?

@martinj did you ever get this working?

Hello, I have a bunch of RAW .avi files I've been thus far unable to convert in any way. does anyone know how to do this?

I had similar issues. Went to replace the MOBO and when I lifted the noctua cpu cooler off the procession came with it. never again gigabyte, never again

What did you spend $1200 on? i mean I dropped nearly $2000 on 18TB exos drives this year, super worth it to get my parity check time down and general performance up.

Its funny because we used to have a roku, I switched to apple for better privacy. Now I’m back to roku and it sucks

I almost bought an nvidia shield. Honestly jellyfin works way better, we’ll probably move to that

Not silly, appletv 4k 2021 and roku ultra 4k 2022 as well as testing in my browser

I've been a plex user for 8 years. My collection is extensive and as such my Database is enormous. 113MB, to be exact, but (jokes aside) the issue is nothing I have done has really improved the user experience enough to satisfy my wife. I switched from the Hotio container to the Binhex one and saw a huge performance improvement. I then replaced my gen4 WD Black (WD is a bunch of frauds) nvme with two gen3 Team MP34 2TB NVMe drives in a RAID 0. I take weekly backups, so I'm not hugely concerned about data loss. The two drives in a RAID 0 (stripe) helped, but it's still nearly a 30 second delay for the library to load. I've installed Jellyfin and it's instaneous in it's response. I've cleaned and optimized the plex database as much as I could, does anyone have any other suggestions on how to fix my Plex database performance issues?

Did this work for you? I'm running a ryzen 9 3900x and I'm having wierd issues.

A reboot seems to have fixed it. I have no clue what is going on. I downed the server to put in better fans. something did not load right at start up.

No I did not. Now things are running ungodly slow. The whole system. Apps aren't loading or being responsive, I can't even pull diagnostics things are so slow. Even the terminal is unusable.

At times yes, I had newer containers that had just been released that spewed logs. I've also played with multiple implements of the same thing and had lots of containers going and bumped up against the 20g limit.

Woke up to this error message on telegram this morning. Looking for advice on how to solve the issue. Or, more over, what issue needs to be solved. Thanks. unraid1-diagnostics-20220823-0810.zip

Still getting flooded by those errorsunraid1-diagnostics-20220811-1506.zip

My logs are being flooded by this message: Unraid1 kernel: program smartctl is using a deprecated SCSI ioctl, please convert it to SG_IO I'm not sure how to fix this. Searching online has netted me nothing conclusive. unraid1-diagnostics-20220811-1115.zip

First you need to get the name of you containers written down. Make sure they are named somethingsimple and easily identifiable as unique to avoid confusion. You'll need use use the script below, set it to run at "Array Startup" #!/bin/bash # Check if nvidia-smi daemon is running and start it if not. if [[ `ps ax | grep nvidia-smi | grep daemon` == "" ]]; then /usr/bin/nvidia-smi daemon fi TREX=`docker container ls -q --filter name=T-Rex` while true; do if [[ `/usr/bin/nvidia-smi | grep plexmediaserver` == "" ]]; then # If Plex is not transcoding, start the trex-miner container if it is not running. if [[ `docker ps | grep $TREX` == "" ]]; then echo "No Plex, starting Trex." docker start $TREX fi else # If Plex is transcoding, stop the trex-miner container if it is running. if [[ `docker ps | grep $TREX` != "" ]]; then echo "Plex running, stopping Trex." docker stop $TREX fi fi sleep 1 done You may need to change trex-miner to match what your container is named. plexmediaserver is the name of the process that appears in the nvidia-smi control panel. I had to make a guess as I couldn't see the whole thing and can't figure out the command to show it to me. I am running the Hotio container currently but have had this working with the Plex, inc, Linuxserver and binhex versions as well. I did not write this script, it is borrowed.
