    Has anyone gotten the ltconfig plugin to deluge working inside the binhex-deluge docker?   My download speeds are really bad so i wanted to try this plugin.   However, all the eggs I try do nothing.   It won't show up as being installed at all.  (in the left panel of installed plugins)

    I read somewhere to copy the egg into the main docker volume and the plugin folder but I'm not sure what that means.   I found the plugin's folder under the appdata folder but now sure what the main volume is)

    Anybody any ideas?

    Thanks

     

    I did finally get the plugin working and it did solve my download speed issue.  My problem was the plugin file i was downloading.  I looked further and found another download link to the 2.0 version.  I copied it into the plugin directory, installed from the UI and then restarted the docker and it showed up in the UI.  I selected the "High Performance Seed" setting and speeds went from under "1MB" to over 3 and even 5 MB per second.

  3. Hello All,

     

    I'm stuck with the binhex-delugevpn docker.  Somehow I changed the password to the webgui and I cannot login.  I've tried:

    -stopping the docker

    -removing the docker

    -running app data cleanup (and removing the container)

    And then re-installing.  Same issue.   I'm unsure where the password is kept and exactly how to re-install and reset the webui password.

     

    Also tried removing the line in ~/.config/deluge/web.conf starting with the "pwd_sha1". 

    I did find a python script that is supposed to allow changing the password but don't quite know how to run it.  (can't find python or python3)

     

    Any help would be appreciated.

     

    Thanks,

    Clayton

    How did you get the HVR-2255's working?  I have 2 of these that I want to get working in a SageTV Docker.  Also, how did you get the drivers installed?  (on Unraid or the Docker?)  I have them working a Windows 10 VM (I did the ACS Override that Space Invader showed on a Youtube video).  I then installed the 2255 Windows drivers on the VM.

     

    Thanks,

    Clayton

     

    I did finally get this working.  My main problem was that I had configured the cards to work first with a VM.   This meant I had to undo the PCIe ACS override: that I had configured.  Then when I installed the DVB drivers, my cards were recognized.   I then added the following to the 'extra parameters' in my docker:  --device=/dev/dvb/.   Much easier that I thought it would be.

  7. Hello all,  I have 2 Hauppage 2255 Capture cards installed in my UNRAID server that I would like to get running in a docker.  I've gotten them to work inside a VM but would like to take it one step further and get them working in side a Docker.  I'm thinking of using them with one of the SageTV dockers.

     

    I've done the ACS override to get them isolated in there own IOMMU group but not sure what to do for the Docker side.

    This is from my VM where it is working...

  8. Thanks JorgeB,

     

    That helped me to resolve it.   I had read about the C-States being an issue but I could not find that in the bios.  I upgraded the bios to the latest ( I was 2 vesions behind).   After the update, I was able to find and disable C-States.  Its been running for a few hours now without issue.

     

    I appreciate your help.

  9. Hello All,

     

    I've replaced my older Xeon with a AMD 4700G server.  Since then (about 2 weeks) I've had a few lockups...  Can someone take a look at my logs and let me know what they think.

    A few clues that may help:

    1.  Parity had just finished (or should have around when the latest crash)

    2.  The UI show's a failed drive and none seem to be bad.  Perhaps its the parity drive (I don't know... It's brand new)

    3.  The latest crash was also doing an appdata backup at the time.

    4.  Each time it crashes it will not restart until I move the boot thumb device to a different port.   It won't be found otherwise.

  10. I'm having the issue mentioned above.   In the forums I was reading what others have done.  They mention running dosfsck to repair the boot disk but that seems to assume I have a linux desktop.  I do not.   How can I get this resolved?

     

    My unraid system will not boot because of this issue.    Can someone help me here?

    UPDATE:   I tried running a chkdsk /f in windows but it thinks everything is fine with the disk....

     

  11. Hello All,

     

    I'm having a problem on some new hardware that I've gone to (AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics @ 3900 MHz)....   It's been working fine for a few over a week but now I'm having the console lock up on me.    Unraid seems like its still up and running.  But my console is locked with this:

    ADCreHfcD2HBpWdZUSTcSDyh9fZvZ3L-l8JqZZsZ

     

    Anybody have any thoughts?    Thanks

  12. Hello All,

     

    I had a disk drive fail in my array.   The drive failure was showing xfs errors in the logs.  I replaced the drive and UNRAID rebuilt/recovered the data to the drive and the did a parity update.

    The replacement drive then was having problems showing xfs errors (it was not new).   I reformatted the drive and its now empty.   Have I hosed all the data on that disk?  Is there a way to start a rebuild on that disk again since my parity was up to date.

     

    Thanks,

    Clayton

  13. II have had this problem 4 times in the past year.  Very painful and difficult to solve.   Yesterday I copied back the backup SQLlite DB's following the support website and it seemed to help.   Now I get SQLlite errors when I re-add my movies into the database.

     

    My appdata is cache only.

    What am I missing?    Why does this keep happening.  I'm ready to just go back to Kodi.

     

    Thanks,

    The calculation of parity is performed by all drives being written to at once. At position one each bit is read from each drive. An Exclusive-OR operation is performed on these bits and a value is calculated. This value is written to the parity drive. The speed of these calculations is constrained by the speed at which the data can be obtained from the individual data drives. This speed is determined by the speed of the drives themselves or the data bus to which they are attached.

     

    Most unRAID systems being built today place the hard disks on a PCIe bus to prevent the data bus slowing the parity calculation, therefore the speed of the drives themselves becomes the limiting factor. Most systems utilize a mixture of disk sizes. These smaller drives have lower areal density and thus lower data read rates. During parity calculation these small drives slow down parity calculation until they are read from completely. Because the data read rate is a function of the areal density, the read rate at the inner tracks of a hard disk is much lower than those at the outside. This degradation is about a factor of two on the disks we tend to use in unRAID.

     

    We can reduce and sometimes eliminate the reduction in parity calculation speed by shifting the smaller drives until the end of the parity calculation. To do this would of course require a change to the way the unRAID software. Smaller drives would have an offset added to their first address such that the last bit on all drives would occur at the same time, unlike now where the first bit is aligned. In my calculations this would speed up my parity calculations by twenty percent. I have a mixture of 1T. and 2T. drives, some 7200 and some 5400-5900. In no case would this ever decrease performance of the parity calculation. If all drives are of equal size, then parity would of course be the same as it is now.

     

    This would require a software change on Tom’s part. The major downsize is that the parity disk would be different between two different versions of the software. Downgrading UnRAID release versions would not be possible without a parity recalculation. A couple of things could be done to help alleviate the transition. Write out the parity creating method on the parity disk itself; warn the user if this signature is not recognized. Allow users to opt in to this parity creation method, so they will only invoke it once they know the risks. I for one would jump at the chance to decrease parity check times. I just spent several hundred dollars upgrading because my parity calculation times were getting out of hand. Now I want that last little bit.

    Hi Scott,  quick question for you... When is this parity calculation done.  I thought it was always a post process job that was scheduled but now I'm seeing conflicting notes.  It seems that it is now done in realtime.   Can you clarify for me?  If its now done in real time, when did this change happen (or am I completely mistaken about this being a post process).   Thanks
