I installed a Nvidia P2000 and got hardware transcoding to work with my docker container running plex
I tried doing a sync today for some movies for my kids on their iPads and noticed the “conversion” step was wasn’t faster like I expected. In fact it seems like it’s slower.
Is a GPU that’s used for hardware transcoding not used for offline sync conversions?
Here’s a snippet from my Plex logs when it was in the conversion step during an offline sync of a movie. The conversion step was reported in Plex dashboard as going at 2-3x.
