I'm currently have a media server running Plex for my totally legit movie and TV series collection. I have paid for a yearly subscription to get HW transcoding, but I'm still struggling a bit with buffering and
Looking to buy a gpu for my upcoming server which will have Plex on it. I'm looking for power efficiency while idle and optimal performance when transcoding. The A770 16gb looks attractive but wanted to check here first. *my friend has an A380 that I cou
For large files, like high bitrate HD movies, the process is slow going, even on good hardware. The transcoding of just this one film took approximately 20 minutes on our multi-core server. So once you’ve ironed out what kind of settings you need for your optimization needs, this is a...
Plex VM is an Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS. Just grabbed an NV Quadro P400 and wanted to passthrough to do the transcoding. Followed Craft Computer's guide link, but the very last step is not working for me. This can be found here 21:50, adding cpu: host,hidden=1 to the vm.conf. I added...

As you can see with proper testing it was clear the GPU isn’t being used for transcoding (unless the CPU magically is doing something else, but looking at Htop, its clearly Plex transcoding). This was confirmed whendoing more researchonthe issue. ...

- Plex server ultimately falls back to CPU transcoding. Questions:- Is there additional configuration needed to make Arc B580 fully usable under VAAPI in Ubuntu 24.04? - Is Intel's plan for Arc moving forward to maintain VAAPI support, or is the shift to oneVPL/Le...
In the Plex-server settings you can select to use your GPU under "Transcoder -> Hardware transcoding device".However, my GPU does no show? I can't select it???I have a compatible GPU (Nvidia Quadro P4000) The GPU is set to 'QTS Service' in the QNAP Hardware settings....
However, in Plex app (TN Community) I have set both gpu's under GPU Configuration, but no combo of intel 0-6 on, or off and Nvidia will let me see the nvidia card in Plex app under new transcoding option preference. The intel gpu works and is good, but the nvidia one can't be...
