Plex Media Server Logs_2025-09-11_01-08-36.zip (562.4 KB)
I upgraded my Ubuntu 24.04.3 server this evening from an Intel 9900k to an Ultra 9 285H. No matter what I do, hardware transcoding won’t kick in. It always uses software decoding. Any help would be appreciated.
When I install Plex, it says “Intel i915 Hardware: Not found”.
I have the latest Intel drivers installed Installing Client GPUs — Intel® software for general purpose GPU capabilities documentation
EDIT:
Seems like the GPU isn’t being properly detected in the system. No idea what’s going wrong here.
