I recently added a lot of my photos from my HDD in the array to my immich photo library and now it is probably analysing, face detecting, transcoding, doing AI magic and what not. As I didn't pin any CPUs to the container, the result is that now my Unraid UI is not connectable anymore and I cannot SSH into the machine anymore. Ping works though and I can see the light at the tower flashing so it is still doing stuff obviously. Is there a chance my server will be reachable again after the photo session has ended or is this now b0rked and I have to take down the machine? I would gladly avoid that if I could. Thanks for helping out a non-expert on this case!

Is anybody else also having issues with updating deconz recently? The Unraid docker update check is giving me a version "not available" lately and I don't seem to be able to fix this. Help is appreaciated.

It might be your motherboard, I think at least in my case it was where the root problem lies. I can't see your specs and I am also not an expert since I gave up on this. But you might investigate in that direction before getting any other graphics card.

No I gave up after trying to get the system to work with an additional GPU. The problem was that a) whenever I had a dedicated GPU installed m iGPU was deactivated and b) when I had both a GT 710 and the 1050 Ti installed, I couldn't choose which one of them was primary and c) I still couldn't successfully pass the secondary GPU (sadly the GT 710) to the VM. The problem is probably the MoBo/Bios which doesn't give enough options to trick the VM into accepting the card. Bummer...

Ok thanks anyway. Maybe I can replace the umlauts with my mediocre Linux skills prior to conversion. Have to Google my way through this.

Too bad. Anything I can do about it?

OK my latest issues were relates to me being not able to use Comskip properly Resolved by setting output to edl file Another thing: Recordings converter seems to fail on file names with German umlauts (ä, ö, ü). If I rename the files, everything is working fine. @dee31797: have you witnessed something like that before?

This helps, thank you a lot. That indeed is killer and might work out well in my (somewhat) complex setup I will give it a whirl then, thanks. Edit: So I could first comskip from folder a to folder b and watch folder b to get it autoconverted, right? Edit2: Auto-comskip does cut the ads out of the file if it finds them, right? I have tested some files and apart from stripping some redundant streams (e.g. teletext ) nothing happened and the files are as long as before. I use a comskip.ini for germany. Don't where to start to debug this. Any option I am missing? Any help is appreciated.

Just found out about this fantastic plugins/docker images, great work. I have a question about ComSkip and Recordings-autoconverter: I keep my recordings in sub-folders (like recordings/Some Show/Season 01/Some Episode - S01E01.ts) because this is how nextpvr (which I am using) is set to handle and this gives me best compatibility with Plex and Emby, since they use the same structure for automatic matches. Do the two plugins support working with subfolders also for the output? Putting all recordings in a single folder would require manual intervention which I would want to avoid. Thanks for helping.

Great to here. I will smack in a GT 710 as main GPU and keep fingers crossed.

Nevertheless, thanks for your help.

It was already set to legacy, although my bios says this does not affect video cards. Set it to UEFI now, since I am desperate Edit: Surprise, didn't help

You probably mean the machine's BIOS... Unraid won't boot for me when I try to boot it into legacy mode, but I will look for that option is it is available.

Ok, thanks already for the effort.

Thanks for the input, didn´t help me unfortunately. Does it matter which vendor_id is used?

Thanks for chiming in. I ordered a GT 710 which I hope I can use as primary GPU, but I don't even know if this will help. Hope I can return it in case my motherboard doesn't accept it or it doesn't help with the VM. I feel a bit lost here, I hoped I can toss the PS4 controller into the corner

Dear fellow passthroughers, I am new to this whole VM passthrough thingie but did my best to passthrough my GTX 1050 Ti -> but failed. My machine is a Fujitsu Primergy TX 1310 M3 pre-built server with Xeon E3-1225 v6 and a C236 board from Fujitsu (D3521-A1). The graphics card is an ASUS GeForce® GTX 1050 Ti Cerberus Advanced 4GB, the vBios I got from this unoffical techpowerup Bios https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/198967/198967 and hex edited the header away. Strangely, my iGPU of the Xeon is deactivated since I put the 1050 in. So the 1050 is the primary and only GPU. The Bios has no option for graphics whatsoever. I had to enable PCIE ACS override (set it to downstream), the IOMMU groups now look like this: IOMMU group 0: [8086:5918] 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v6/7th Gen Core Processor Host Bridge/DRAM Registers (rev 05) IOMMU group 1: [8086:1901] 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v5/E3-1500 v5/6th Gen Core Processor PCIe Controller (x16) (rev 05) IOMMU group 2: [8086:a12f] 00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 100 Series/C230 Series Chipset Family USB 3.0 xHCI Controller (rev 31) [8086:a131] 00:14.2 Signal processing controller: Intel Corporation 100 Series/C230 Series Chipset Family Thermal Subsystem (rev 31) IOMMU group 3: [8086:a13a] 00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 100 Series/C230 Series Chipset Family MEI Controller #1 (rev 31) IOMMU group 4: [8086:a102] 00:17.0 SATA controller: Intel Corporation Q170/Q150/B150/H170/H110/Z170/CM236 Chipset SATA Controller [AHCI Mode] (rev 31) IOMMU group 5: [8086:a149] 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation C236 Chipset LPC/eSPI Controller (rev 31) [8086:a121] 00:1f.2 Memory controller: Intel Corporation 100 Series/C230 Series Chipset Family Power Management Controller (rev 31) [8086:a123] 00:1f.4 SMBus: Intel Corporation 100 Series/C230 Series Chipset Family SMBus (rev 31) IOMMU group 6: [8086:15b7] 00:1f.6 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (2) I219-LM (rev 31) IOMMU group 7: [10de:1c82] 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti] (rev a1) [10de:0fb9] 01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GP107GL High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1) My machine is only able to boot Unraid in UEFI mode, in Legacy mode I get the message that the USB drive is not bootable. In VM setup, I tried every combination that I could imagine: i4770fx/Q35: with Q35 there was always an unknown device in Device Manager of Win10 SEA-Bios/OMVF: Both boot and yield similar results Hyper-V on/off: Both boot and yield similar results "paired" the GPU and sound device of the 1050 Ti via space invaders route (mutlifunction) but also tried to only passthrough the GPU.

The vBios is the one linked above, I also tried to dump my own bios, but since I have no other graphics card in the machine, this has probably failed (can I dump the vbios, when my GPU is the only GPU?). So what else can I do? 0. Legacy booting Unraid does not work on any of the USB ports and with any of the Bios settings. 1. Get another 1050 Ti that has a "valid"/verified entry at techpowerup? 2. Get a cheap GPU as primary GPU and dump the vBios? - do I need to dump the vBios if I use the 1050 Ti as secondary GPU? Any help is appreciated, also stating the obvious, as I said I am new to this.
