June 15, 20197 yr Hi all, had Plex running just fine until my power went out the other night. The docker image disappeared (saw the orphan image) and have been unsuccessful in my attempts to reinstall. Here are the logs from the fresh install. It seems to install properly and I'm able to access the Plex interface, but I'm unable to access any of my media and nothing updates (e.g. new movie added but Plex doesn't see it) . See playback error screenshot. Any ideas?

I don't actively transcode at all with the i5-4590 based server; it is my backup server in case something goes south with the main server. I backup all content to it, but, I hope I never have to use it on a daily basis. I did test it with transcoding and it seemed to do fine, but, I never stressed it. The Skylake Xeon machine is my daily use machine, and I rarely get any "server too slow" messages. I have it set to 720p 4Mbit transcodes for remote devices and my kids access the server content at that resolution as do I when traveling. Yes, from time to time I see a bit of blockiness in dark or fast scenes; but, nothing too distracting. Edited June 17, 20197 yr by Hoopster

And It's true I don't get often the error often using software decoding. But HEVC is a no go to me. Freezes and a lot of times transcoding fails in a remote chromecast. The benefit I want is start getting 4K at a lower size. But at least I have the answers I need for now.

June 18, 20197 yr Hi i have an extra SSD, im going to install it in my unraid setup with unassigned devices, can i set my trans code folder to it so save wear and tear on my main array, If so can anyone point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance. You create a partition on the SSD, /transcode for example, mount it, then enter the path to that partition into the transcode path in the Plex docker template (/mnt/disks/transcode/).

June 20, 20197 yr Hi all, I'm having issues getting HW transcoding to work with my UHD600 iGPU (Gemini Lake Celeron J4105). I am of course passing /dev/dri to the container and do have HW transcoding enabled in the server settings. Looking at logs, it seems Plex is indeed aware of the vaapi device and is trying to use it but even though the Plex dashboard shows "Transcode (hw)", playback doesn't start and it is stuck buffering, no matter the client initiating playback. I have already opened a thread on here and I don't want to x-post, anyone kind enough to try and help me out can find logs and more details here: Thanks in advance for any advice/ideas Edited June 20, 20197 yr by switch typos

After downgrading to 6.6.7 everything runs smoothly again. Did you upgrade or is it a fresh install?
June 20, 20197 yr Fresh install. Thanks for the tip with downgrading will consider that. Any chance to figure out what was changed in 6.7.0 over 6.6.7 that b0rked the HW transcoding? I'm guessing maybe the i915 driver? Would it maybe be possible to just downgrade the kernel/driver? EDIT: just downgraded to unRAID 6.6.7 and indeed HW transcoding now works without a hitch. Time to report a bug to unRAID devs I guess? Edited June 21, 20197 yr by switch
June 22, 20197 yr I just performed and update and now my plex app has vanished from my dashboard. I find it in previous apps but it fails when I attempt to reinstall. Im a noob so please be gentle. Thanks
June 22, 20197 yr Try advanced mode in the docker. You might be able to find the orphaned package. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk Thanks gacpac, I discovered a couple errors when I was reinstalling associated with paths. Once I removed/fixed it installed fine. I did the reinstall through the previous app section but after seeing your post I'm sure the orphan was in there too. Thanks for responding
June 22, 20197 yr I am trying to move my plex from one network br0 over to my other network on br2. However I am not seeing any option to move it. I am running VMs on br2 so I know its working. What am I missing? Under Network type: it only shows br0. Thank you for the help. Edited June 22, 20197 yr by demonmaestro
June 22, 20197 yr Hey guys, I have some issues that I don't think I should have anymore now that plex is transcoding my Video via Hardware I have confirmed that it is playing via HW but I am still getting stutter quite often, maybe everyone 2-3 minutes. (note this is the case using the plex script to enable nvec and also without) Here is the info that plex shows Note the stream bounces between "throttled" and "speed:4.0/2.9/etc/etc" These are my transcoder settings Surely the 1050 ti is good enough to take this on? its barely using any utilisation and only around 600-700, lower on some other shows I brought the card purely for this purpose but seems to have not made things much better, except stop my cpu from hurting Log doesn't show much, except maybe this Jun 22, 2019 19:04:38.633 [0x14eb11348700] Debug — Session 27wbzjk39srddfdrn8k62878 (2) is throttling Jun 22, 2019 19:04:38.634 [0x14eb13bfd700] Debug — [Transcoder] Throttle - Going into sloth mode. Maybe it could be because its transcoding the Audio? (really?) Also, chromecast is wired on a gig network wait, I might have found my own bottleneck.. server is reporting issue still present on gigabit I confirmed my chromecast is getting near gigabit speeds Please help!

There is a separate thread for discussing the script as it's not published by the lsio team. In your screenshot, you see hw next to the encode portion (h264 after the arrow), but no hw next to decode (h264 before the arrow)
