You realize that beta 25 is out, right?

Nope, I had no idea, just saw it.  So I guess my same question still applies but to beta 25!

If you are too impatient to wait for the stable linuxserver build, you can do it yourself following the directions ich777 posted. Asking for beta builds when they are coming out back to back is a little presumptuous.

Im not impatient?  I just asked If they were planning on releasing an Nvidia build for the newest version because they skip a few of them.  I wasn't being pushy or disrespectful.  It was just a question.  I understand it takes time and that the people that do it have other priorities in their life...

Anyways, prebuilt images are in the first post at the bottom that @jonathanm linked. ;)

 

At the time, I don't have much other prioritues in my life. :D

Thanks I see someone already built it!  Will it be uploaded to the Nvidia plugin app?  Or does that just take time?

They have nothing to do with each other, so you need to use ich777 plugin/build.

I tried this with a new blank config and saw the same issues and I also tried ich777 - Nvidia/DVB Kernel Helper/Builder Docker with the same results. So there must be something with my hardware and the nvidia driver, I just do not know where to begin on how to troubleshoot it. Any advice would be appreciated.

Just to follow up here. Thanks to @ich777 I was able to figure out my issue, it was the pcie power. I put the card in a different machine and it worked fine, so I knew it wasn't the card. So I pulled the PSU out of another box and powered the card with that PSU while in my main server and it works! So I just ordered what I needed to make it a permanent fix. Thank you for those that helped me.

v6.9.0-beta25 uploaded

A gentleman - and a scholar.

Can't wait for Power State switching to be reliable 🙂


EDIT: to be clear this release doesn't have the beta nvidia driver that fixes the power state. I realized in post this may cause confusion for some sorry.

The driver version v450.57 should fix that (that's the new one and also not the beta one, the beta was v450.51).

The v6.9.0-beta25 release doesn't include that driver, either.

That's not Linuxserver.io - Unraid Nvidia, that's totally different project, by a different creator. My point was to avoid the confusion that I've apparently created anyway. The point being:
Currently, with the driver release available with the latest Linuxserver.io Unraid Nvidia plugin release - that driver version is not included.

I installed a new GPU recently into my unraid server, and I have been getting hundreds of these errors in the system log:

 

NVRM: GPU - RmInitAdapter failed!
NVRM: GPU - rm_init_adapter failed, device minor number 0
NVRM: GPU - Failed to copy vbios to system memory

I also have installed a GPU and am receiving these errors, but my issue is only on boot for the PlexInc Docker. Typically I can manually restart the docker and it will boot fine, but it seems CA Backup/Restore might be causing some issue for me or it just makes the issue more prevalent.

Hello,

 

Hoping I can find some help / guidance after reading through this thread and many others.

 

I've installed a GTX 1050 Ti in my unRaid server. 

Version: 6.8.3

Nvidia Driver Version 440.59

 

However, I keep receiving the error that "No devices were found", despite seeing that unRaid seems to recognize the device. 

"watch nvidia-smi" output is also "No devices were found".

 

Here is the output of lspci -k:

87:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti] (rev a1)
        Subsystem: eVga.com. Corp. GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti]
        Kernel driver in use: nvidia
        Kernel modules: nvidia_drm, nvidia
87:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GP107GL High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1)
        Subsystem: eVga.com. Corp. GP107GL High Definition Audio Controller

 

And also here are some of the logs that I've been noticing but I can't seem to determine the cause of them.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks!

stuck on a black screen.

Are you getting the Unraid boot menu? 

 

Hi all.

 

New to unRAID and even newer to Docker. And a total absolute wet ass newb when it comes to PLex HW transcoding using the NVIDIA cards.

 

Just setup a new "server" last week and finally have working shares and Plex is running. Now I am trying to get the GPU to work as encoder / decoder using the instructions from the OP and also from this tutorial here: 

 

 

I managed to get as far as to see some decoding happening, but no transcoding. Here's a shot of my GPU when running video, as well as my docker settings:

https://imgur.com/a/1NzfYbJ

 

Things I have noticed: I renamed the Plex Transcoder file to Plex Transcoder2 as suggested and nano'd the new Plex Transcoder file. chmod was performed. However as you can see in the processes, the Plex Transcoder2 seems to be used and not the Plex Transcoder. Also, sometimes it simply doesn't touch the GPU and I see zero processes and zero usage for either edcoding or encoding. When playing some files, from time to time it will use the GPU to decode, but never to encode. My CPU gets pegged at high 80's most of the time.

 

Can anyone help me troubleshoot?

You do not have to do anything in that video anymore. Plex added support for encode/decode a while back. You just need to add the gpu variables to the docker and turn on hardware support in the plex settings.

You mean I only need to copy the GPU UUID?

Do everything from post #2. You do not have to make changes to that transcoder file. Add the extra paramater, the UUID and the other variables in post #2.

Thanks for responding. I was able to fix it with a new Unraid install using the legacy method. I reinstalled Unraid like 10x using the USB Creator. Definitely buggy on both Windows and MacOS. Between that and replacing the flash drive, my issue is resolved now and I got pretty much everything running ✅

Hello all, 

 

Firstly, thank you for another great release, unRaid just keeps getting better and better. 

 

I have PLEX, an MSI Nvidia 760 GTX and followed Spaceinvader's youtube tutorial and everything seemed to go well. My issue however is that when I am transcoding a video, the "watch nvidia-smi" command shows the below output. I've also included screenshots of my docker settings, I hope someone can point me in the right direction. 

 

Many thanks.

Your card isn't support by the nvidia-smi tool.

As long as you see hardware transcode in the movie playing in the activity section, it works.

Many thanks for clarifying for me. I checked and it does say HW, so it must be working. 

 

Thanks again.

I have a GT 730 model.

Tried 6.83 and 6.82 versions and it does not show up on the plugin page after install and a reboot.

The nvidia driver link page shows support for the card. Card too old or am I doing something wrong?

Do I fall in to the old card category?
