I am new to Unraid and linux, i have tried all the options to get the card passed to a windows 10 vm but so far only the sound part works. I saw that a kernel was floating around but it turns out that it was not deigned for Unraid and i have no idea how to modify it. So far i like all the things i can do in this system and i would really appreciate some help with this problem.

 

What kernel are you on about?  The Linux kernel version that ships with Unraid is pretty recent and the kernel options configured are designed for KVM.  If the card is passed through to a VM then you shouldn't need to worry about Linux kernel support for it I don't think.

Hey CHBMB, i have Unraid 6.3.3 and when i was talking about a kernel i was referring to a post from another member of the community. Here is the post link 

The problem i am having seems very similar to the one he had. 

Here is the current xml for my vm, i have the capture card passed to it but for some reason the video part of it doesn't pass through correctly. 

I know the card is working because once i boot into windows everything is perfect. 

Any help you can provide here will be greatly appreciated.

Have you got the same card?

 

If not I'm unconvinced that kernel patch will apply to you.

 

Not to mention we're now on a kernel version much later that the one referenced there.

That is the exact same card i have, like i said before i would love to get it working without having to touch any coding specially since Linux is new territory for me. 

Did you see any obvious errors on my VM XML, or do you have some ideas of what i should try or how i should go about troubleshooting this problem. 

Thanks.
