Head to https://www.plex.tv/claim Add the code to the docker container in the environment section. PLEX_CLAIM= Start the container. You have to do this within 4 minutes of generating the claim code. You can see info on it here Quote Link to comment

It appears almost nobody is running intel 11th gen processors with Plex since they don't even notice it doesn't work Quote Link to comment

I dont know why anyone would buy the 11th gen for desktop over 10th gen. 10th gen offers more cores and is on huge sales. 11th gen has xe graphics though, but in that case its a negative lol. I just upgraded my servers and went for the 10th gen series specifically because i wanted the higher core count. Quote Link to comment

In my case since I'm upgrading from 7th gen it doesn't make sense buy a 10gen Edited July 28, 2021 by arturovf Quote Link to comment

Must confess that mobo (Asus Z590-E) and processor (11600k) are still in the box as I have a lot of 4k HDR movies and don't want to have downtime of the service, I read several reports of artifacts and no reports of it working perfectly or fixed so I assumed it was still not working, but if you tell me everything is ready I will unbox in no time!

Thats great news! Well the 10600k is like 60$ cheaper. If you did swap, make sure you know if you use a z590 mobo with a 10 series intel, your top nvme slot wont work. So either youre ok with that or you need to find a z490 mobo. As for unraid support for the 11 series intels. I think its going to be a few months. They havent even released betas of a new version yet. Its been a few months since stable release though. Quote Link to comment

I have to believe the changelog version 1.23.0.4497 should finally solved the issue. You can look through the changelogs here: https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-media-server/30447/426 I would advise going to latest again. And did you read this topic? You have a UHD 750 with that 11600K, just like me with my 11500, so you should be able to get it working just like I did. If you can't get it solved then just PM me so we can do a 1 on 1. EDIT: Standby, I just retested and now it's broken for me as well again. Seems like they broke something in a newer patch. EDIT2: Went through all the recent versions and it indeed still shows corruption on the occasional 4K video. I drew the wrong conclusion because of movies that would be corrupted before, now play perfectly. So there are still some codecs or whatever which are not played without corruption unfortunately. I still believe this has to do with the Linux kernel support not being there for the 11th gen yet. Since Emby also has the same issue and I do not believe Jellyfin is totally free of this issue either. Really depends on your own library. Edited July 29, 2021 by Kaizac Quote Link to comment

NMGMarques Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Hi all! I installed this container some months ago using the NVIDIA options to use the 1650 I have in the box for transcoding. Meanwhile, I'd like to try and reassign the GPU to a VM that I'd like to use to try and stream games. I don't think I can use the GPU at the same time for Plex and a VM, right? What do I need to do to disable the GPU transcoding? I assume I need to disable it within the PLEX server, though I doubt it'll be as easy as just removing the --runtime=nvidia extra parameter and dedleting the GPU ID from the Visible Devices parameter.

XisoP Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Prerolls.. Does anyone else have issues with them? Mine just stopped working a couple of weeks ago. I currently have a playlist of 50 (more in total, but there are some seasonal prerolls), randomly playing (or at least playeD in the past) one before each movie. All mp4, placed in a seperate folder on my plex SSD for instant access. Is this a container issue or a common plex issue? Quote Link to comment

Sorry for this noob question. It was working fine for months and now I cannot connect direct to plex from external. I was using it a lot and I would like to have it back. Tank you.

GhostKnock Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Has anyone had issues with pre-rolls not working? The only time I see them work is when I change the "play trailers" option from 0 to 1 on the client settings. They used to play regardless of the trailer count setting. Now they won't play if it's set to 0. Quote Link to comment

Take a look at this thread: You need the full tag in order for it to work (amd64-1.23.3.4707-ebb5fe9f3-ls58) Google is your friend as always I'm rolling back aswell, just trying something. If prerolls are working, I'll make a post at the plex community hoping the issue will be resolved somewhere in the future. Keep in mind the fixing of issues is not important to plex... LG buffer issue took over a year Please keep in mind that the version you called does not exist on docker hub. enter a correct value to downgrade your image https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/plex/tags?page=3&ordering=last_updated Edited August 4, 2021 by XisoP 1 Quote Link to comment
