Server Version: 1.41.3.9314 UNRAID Version: 6.12.14 Installed RAM: 64GB I want to add hardware transcoding to get 4K HDR playback to run smoothly via Raspberry Pi which is running Android TV. With all the settings i did as you can see in the screenshots, plex isnt using my GPU (NVIDIA QUADRO P400) but is still using the CPU (AMD Ryzen 5 3600). Can you spot a mistake i did? Or is what i am trying to accomplish just not working?` Thanks in advance 🙂 ![Unbenannt](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/4X/b/d/c/bdc38c544b2e07b733e5b7901dfa7ce1af5afd67.png) ![Un2benannt](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/4X/2/8/1/2817327f8f2109222a6fb80a7489b9af580e11d2.jpeg) ![Screenshot (6)](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/4X/e/3/e/e3e7c224073b3ce682bcb270551d31be2301264c.png) ![Screenshot (1)](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/4X/e/8/0/e80be1e48b1cf3542b29d3947f1271ab97fe1016.png) ---
