Who has a Qnap TS-1277-1700?

Just an FYI, I have validated the following setup DOES work as expected:

  • x77 Ryzen based NAS
  • Nvidia 1060-based GPU
  • GPU Passthrough to Virtualization Station
  • WIndows 10 x64 w/latest NVidia Drivers installed
  • Latest PlexPass build of Plex

I tested HW Transcoding and it worked just fine in the above configuration (and actually it was fairly performant). Now I do have the VM files stored on an SSD volume which also helps with performance.

So Plex HW Transcoding (leveraging GPU Passthrough) does work just fine in a Win10 VM.
