[email protected] Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Hi, I'm a novice to unraid and to this forum so if I ask stupid questions please let me know...:) I have a couple of VM working fine with VNC video output. I switched the one Centos VM to use AMD 6450 internal video card. The VM starts but in unraid if I click the VM icon i can't see the Video output option. What am I missing? Quote Link to comment

If you add VNC as a GPU in your VM config it will be always the first GPU and passthrough a physical GPU in most cases has issues. VNC by most users is used for the initial setup of the VM only. Either you use your monitor and passthrough mouse and keybord to control it directly on your Unraid box or use other remote software like RDP or Anydesk to control it from another pc on your network.
