Anyone have any advice on how to enable Nvdia gpu transcode on plex in in this container? All the resources I can find reference linuxserver's image, which has different variables in the template. I have included --runtime=nvidia in extra parameters. can I just create the additional variables in the template for gpuid etc? Will that just work?

@JorgeB you're a legend. Thanks for the detailed rundown, that's a more complete picture than Ive ever seen in one place. This is what I suspected as Ive previously had some instability with 1st gen Ryzen but it seemed remedied after disabling c-states.

For the past few months Ive been experiencing crashes. I figured out that I had a bad stick of RAM and have removed that and run memchecks on the other sticks and everything checks out fine. However my server is still crashing this time harder than before--even the command line disappears on the direct attached monitor. I have started receiving MCEs and am posting my diagnostics in hopes that someone can provide some insight. Thanks! deathstar-diagnostics-20230109-1636.zip

Got it. Thanks for the info!

Im getting mce notifications on my server and per @Squid post here looked to install mcelog in nerd pack. Nerd pack being deprecated, we have been directed by the developer to install Nerd Tools, but mcelog doesn't seem to be included in NT. Anyone have any ideas on where one should get mcelog?

Recently encountered the following error: Error parsing column 42 (MediaInfo={ "rawStreamData":... Attempted to restore from a CA backup with no success. Same error. Got pissed and nuked radarr, config, database and all to start from scratch. Lo and behold, my error is back after fewer than 3 days of normal running. Can anyone lend assistance? debug attached. radarr.debug.txt

@peter_sm Before I install, I just wanted to make sure that this is still supported. I see discussion of potentially deprecating bc of wireguard implementation.

I’m experiencing a similar issue. On all of my clients (chromecast, iOS, and tv app) a certain number of shows will no longer play successfully. I’m most cases, I’ll get 5-10 minutes in until the stream hangs up and acts like it’s buffering (even on direct stream) and never successfully resumes. No warning about server or connection speed. No eventual time-out. I’ve read a recommendation that one should explicitly specify a transcode dir on the cache, but it’s been my understanding that plex automatically transcodes on the cache if the app and sys shares are cache only. Also, linuxserver’s repo doesn’t provide a path for a /transcode dir.

Im having this issue too. The flickering and stuttering happens no matter which player I use (web, chromecast, tv app). If anyone has any resources, please share.

I've just reinstalled Linuxserver's plex docker after my server randomly decided to delete all of my dockers and vms; however, I cant seem to remember what I should do with the "transcoder temporary directory" setting. By default it's blank, but I cant find anything telling me where the default location is. Does anyone know where the default transcoder directory is???? I want to make sure that my transcoder directory is on my SSD cache.

Ok. So I guess what I need to do is figure out how to partition the drive. The disk is formatted in XFS, but Im still not given the option to choose a vdisk size. This is the manual location Im typing into the vdisk location option. /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Samsung_SSD_840_EVO_250GB_S1DBNSBF882120V

That's what Ive done, however, when I manually set my vdisks to be on my unassigned device, the vdisk size option goes away. So the vdisk just occupies the entire unassigned device, instead of a smaller partition. I guess my question is whether space is actually dynamically allocated to a vdisk in this situation, or will a single vdisk take the whole 250G to itself and prevent any other vdisks from being assigned to that drive?

Im pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to host multiple VMs on a single unassigned SSD. Each time I try to create a VM, it wants to use the entire disk, leaving nothing available for other VMs. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
