newest guide for Nvidia Transcoding?

there isn't much you need to do...

Install the Nvidia plugin and I think you need to restart the server. Get the UUID from the Plugin.

Now, this depends on the image maintainer that you use, I use the Linuxserver Plex image which makes this very easy.

Open the Plex container and enable the Advanced view, under "Extra parameters" you add --runtime=nvidia. then you add a new variable with the following values:

• Name: whatever you like

• Key: NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES

• Value: all or the UUID you got from the Plugin

There is also

• Name: again whatever you like

• Key: NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES

• Value: all

Press done and the container will be recreated and now you can use hardware transcoding in Plex.

By the way, Unraid stores 2 Templates, the default and user templates. If you make any changes, you will get your template under "user templates" in the template selection by adding a new container. This means that your containers are not gone and you can just re-add them in the last state they were created.

So don't just pick the first one in that list, the second one is the one you should be looking for.

just for completion sake, keep in mind the following:

• you need Plex Pass to utilize hardware transcoding

• you need to enable hardware acceleration in the Plex server settings

• not everything can utilize the GPU for hardware acceleration (Audio transcode would run on the CPU)

• your GPU would also need to support whatever you need to transcode
