February 20, 20233 yr I was able to successfully passthrough to my Nvidia GPU with my windows VM and docker container plex. My only question is if you are able to un both the VM passthrough and Docker container passthrough at the same time. I seem to have issues.

No - a GPU cannot be used by a docker container and a VM simultaneously.
February 20, 20233 yr Author I figured that was the case. I think I will research on a inexpensive GPU to help with transcoding. Thanks

Thanks For transcode it needs to be either a GTX or a Quadro Quadro P400 / P600/ P620/ P1000 Quadro T400 (more recent) Decode / Encode capabilities Note there are tabs for Geforce / Quadro which may not be immediately obvious. All of these cards support 3 streams which is enough for most users as a lot of content is direct play. Also worth checking for both encode and decode support as both are now supported in Plex and other media software. 1 steam gets you both the encode and decode.
