Another hw transcoding topic

Server Version#: 1.41.2.9200
Player Version#: 4.141.0

Need help with my old mac pro 5.1 w/ a GTX 1660 Super and RHEL 9.4.

I got vainfo displaying correct information, and I have made some attempts copying libraries into /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib… still plex won’t even show me the option to turn on hardware acceleration.

I’m using the rpm I have downloaded at Plex Media Server downloads webpage.

Is there something to be done? anyone can help ? I’ve read the requirements, and I got the libavformat…nvdec … vaapi… but still … nothing… can’t turn that on.

[root@xxx lib]# vainfo

not very advanced on plex, but logs show me this :

Transcoder: session 58c2tp9mgue963xqo94m0b0n indicated fallback to software decoding

i’ve also attempted to add the following to preferences.xml :

Is ‘plex’ a member of both groups ‘video’ and ‘render’ (the groups which own /dev/dri) ?
Do you have these packages installed ?
– libnvidia-decode
– libnvidia-encode
– libnvidia-compute

yes for all.

and i found what’s wrong…
i compared the Transcoder with the one from the docker image.. it’s f* up…

from the rpm i installed :

so.. what i did was i copied the plex within “/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/” from docker image… to my original rpm installed location… and voila.. all working.. i see hardware acceleration option etc…

so.. seems like the ffmpeg they used to compile ‘Plex Transcoder’ within the rpm is broken…

hope this helps someone in future… as i lost some time with it

whose docker image ?

As for the transcoder binary, only Plex compiles it.
If it were a bad executable, we’d all know.

I used this :

podman create
–name plex
-p 32400:32400/tcp
-p 8324:8324/tcp
-p 32469:32469/tcp
-p 1900:1900/udp
-p 32410:32410/udp
-p 32412:32412/udp
-p 32413:32413/udp
-p 32414:32414/udp
-e TZ=“GMT-3”
-v /var/plex:/config
-v /var/plex:/transcode
-v /var/plex:/data
plexinc/pms-docker

then i just mounted the dir and went for it’s binaries… on /usr/lib

anway… the docker image should be the way to go… the rpm is missing something i don’t know… but it’s missing!

and the rpm i used to install was this :

plexmediaserver-1.41.2.9200-c6bbc1b53.i686.rpm

** and… it’s working great now… my cpu is down to less than 5% used… and transcoding is working flawlessly on a 105 GB file.

i686 ??

You grabbed the wrong executable

i686 == 32 bit.

flavio_28 · November 19, 2024, 6:02pm

damn!! u’re right, that must be it !!!

i’ll give it a try again in future!!!

thank you very much ChuckPa!
