Chocco Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 (edited) Hi Djoss, thanks for your work on this container! It's great! With Handbrake 1.1.0 the team added initial support for quicksync encoding with Intel Media Server Studio installed. Is it possible to get this working within the docker? My gut reaction is no, but I thought I should ask anyway. Thanks! Edited April 15, 2018 by Chocco Quote Link to comment
Random.Name Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 well, installed it and it seems to be running quite well. One thing i would like to know, ist ift there is a fool proof way to integrate this with sonarr/ sabnzbd to convert everything after download and before import. As far as i see it i could let Sabnzbd sort finished files into the watch folder and have sonarr watch the output folder. But i am not sure if this is the best way to do ist and before i screw around with my setup i wanted to ask how you solve this Quote Link to comment

Unless some else already did this setup, you would have to do some experimentation ;). Quote Link to comment

But i am not sure if this is the best way to do ist and before i screw around with my setup i wanted to ask how you solve this I do have this workflow but sonarr and radarr attempt to import the files before handbrake has finished encoding, because the download client has already told them that the files are ready for import. See some of my posts for workarounds, it'll not be 100% automated. Quote Link to comment
hmgnsd Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 At the moment I'm having stuff enter my watch folder but the docker isn't doing anything with it. I've tried restarting the docker, stopping and then starting, removing everything from the watch folder and only adding one item back, a forced update and docker safe new permissions and nothing. How can I troubleshoot this further please? Quote Link to comment

A hook can be configured in the Handbrake container to move the converted video to this subfolder. Quote Link to comment

tater Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I have this and plex on my system and I want to be sure plex will have the ability to transcode if needed, will niceness allow this or can I just set which cpu's handbrake can use, with my old handbrake docker i used Cpu set but I couldnt find it on this one? Thanks for the update, very usuable docker! Quote Link to comment

Thanks for the update, very usuable docker! Both methods can work. If you want to limit the number of cpu/core the container can use, see: Quote Link to comment
Struck Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 When i use the watch folder to encode a video, i cant see the progress in the handbrake container. Is this an error, or intended? Where can i see the progress of my encoding when using the watch folder to automatically encode a video? Quote Link to comment

You should see the progress in the container's log. Quote Link to comment

cybrnook Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I would think it's likely because it's "background" process encoding, not a foreground GUI driven process. Quote Link to comment

Yes this is my though too. The problem is, i don't realy know when it is done encoding. Another thing i am wondering about is how to use symlinks in the watch folder. Instead of me moving the data from the array to the watch share i would like to use symlinks (if possible) I tried creating a symlink with Krusader, but this didn't trigger handbrake to do anything. I tried to use symlinks for both folders and files directly in the watch folder. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment

Make sure to make a symlink to something accessible by the container. Quote Link to comment
RichardU Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 When adding this container, both the Storage field and the Output field have a single asterisk. The asterisk notes at the bottom seem to apply to the Output field, but not necessarily the Storage field. Or am I missing the point? What is the purpose of the Storage field? Cheers, Richard Quote Link to comment

Cheers, Richard The Storage parameter contains the location of your data on the host. So when you use HandBrake and want to open a files, you will look into /storage to access your host's files.

Then it would seem that Storage: * should Not have an asterisk since none of the asterisk notes seem to apply. Quote Link to comment

What are the notes your are talking about? I think the asterisk only means it's a mandatory setting. Quote Link to comment

The notes below "Subdirectory of the output folder ..." are in fact bullets. They looked like asterisks on the shrunken screen in my server room. Chers, Richard Quote Link to comment

I tried to use symlinks for both folders and files directly in the watch folder. Any ideas? Here's one way of doing it from the command line: I'm sure you can achieve the same from Krusader but I don't know how. I use Midnight Commander and there it's a two step process: 1. create symlink 2. edit symlink to replace the first part (/mnt/user/Media) with something the docker can understand (/storage) I know this works for files, but haven't tried folders. Please report back if you test that. Quote Link to comment
