Hello, Not sure if i am in the right forum, but i will give it a shot. Recently installed an old GTX 1050TI card in my unraid server, which is running the official plexmediaserver docker. I followed spaceinvader youtube tutorial. However there are a few more advanced settings in the linuxserver docker, which i can’t seem to find. Is it possible to enable GPU HW transcoding in plex running the official plexmediaserver docker on unraid? I tried searching a bit, but did not manage to find anything related. Almost everything pointed in the direction of the linuxserver docker. I tried that once for a few years ago, but where having some strange issues regarding my libary. Changed to the official plexmediaserver docker and haven’t had a single issue.

Any suggestions? ---
