April 8, 20197 yr gt 710 seem to support NVENC for h.264 (AVCHD) YUV 4:2:0 and for NVDEC - AVCHD.Hmmm, well nvidia-smi is separate to that so I suppose the original issue is stuttering, probably need some more info on what you're transcoding to/from and network setup.Sent from my Mi A1 using Tapatalk

Sent from my Mi A1 using Tapatalk HP N40L with UnRaid (r7) und Docker Plex (both from Plex and Linux.io). In Plex i see the HW in transcoding, but the CPU ist 100% when i transcode and it is stuttering, so i think this is not work well. 1GB Lan to orbmedia (android box with Plex client) on beamer. 4k to HD transcoding (samsunf demo 4k)

April 8, 20197 yr Has anybody else been seeing that the nvidia runtime is no longer supported by the docker container by specifying --runtime=nvidia as an extra parameter. I lost my nvidia gpu passthrough and therefore my hardware acceleration after updating to unraid 6.7.0-rc7. I removed the docker and re-added through apps but it won't deploy with the same error. I initially missed that nvidia unraid plugin needed to be updated but have since updated and still can't get the plex docker container to use the nvidia runtime parameter. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Edited April 8, 20197 yr by kymnyth
April 8, 20197 yr Could it be something to do with this.... When I try and update the unraid nvidia install I just get a white screen. Based on screen shots earlier in the thread I should be getting some kind of output and I should be getting back to a done button. However, this just hangs. I have been letting it sit for about 10 minutes. Note: I tried with various browsers to see if it was running but nothing is showing up in chrome or firefox. And after reboot, it isn't behaving like anything is being installed. I tried the Stock Unraid 1.6.7.0-rc7 install as well and got the same result...blank white box. Additionally, I tried uninstalling the nvidia unraid plugin and reinstalled it and tried again with the same result. Edited April 8, 20197 yr by kymnyth

Updating to a new version of Unraid means you are installing a non-custom build that doesn't have nvidia support.

I installed the update and now I am trying to install the custom build with nvidia support however the installer is hanging as is shown in the screen shots above. Should I rollback to 6.7.0-rc6 and then try to install the update custom nvidia unraid build? Thanks. Edited April 8, 20197 yr by kymnyth

April 8, 20197 yr I'm not sure what the issue was. To be on the safe side I rebooted my router and all is well now. Thanks for the help trurl.

Did you see my post a couple pages back: Go to Settings > VM Options > Advanced > Edit Configuration > Add Parameter menu of the guest after powering it down and add the following parameter: hypervisor.cpuid.v0 = "FALSE" Seems to be somehow required for VMWare ESXI nvidia passthrough for CUDA and other advanced features to work.

Ohhh, I missed that, it now seems I have a Nvidia gpu in UnRaid. Thanks a lot Xaero :)

Did you notice any? One thing Plex is still not using the graphics card. I've made the changes to the docker NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES (all) and NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES (my GPU UUID) and enabled hardware transcoding in the plex menu but it still defaults to software. Do I include the whole UUID string including the start of the string "GPU-"
April 13, 20197 yr Yes That's why I printed the whole string in the plugin and why it shows it in the readme at the beginning of the thread Sent from my Mi A1 using Tapatalk

April 13, 20197 yr I don't use Plex, but you need a Plex Pass and Plex only does one of decoding or encoding. I forget which.....Sent from my Mi A1 using Tapatalk
