OS#: OMV 4.x
Hi all together,
I installed Plex on my rock64 in the OMV Docker.
The normal video play does work fine.
The transcode fails on every start on any device (Windows, Android).
The transcode/sessions folder shows no transcoded files while trying to transcode.
I found this post but I dont know if it is exactly my problem and what to do exactly:
Hope you can help me. Thanks you
Which hard drive is pointed to by the /transcode container path? That drive must be mounted with the exec option in your /etc/fstab file. Is it?
Thank you for your reply.
My HDD looks like this in my file:
/dev/disk/by-label/HDD1 /srv/dev-disk-by-label-HDD1 ext4 defaults,nofail,use$/
How do I ad here the exec option?
Look at that file again. What you posted looks incomplete and the entry use$/ looks improper.
This is all I get.
GNU nano 2.7.4 File: /etc/fstab
LABEL=boot /boot/efi vfat defaults,sync 0 0
/dev/disk/by-label/HDD1 /srv/dev-disk-by-label-HDD1 ext4 defaults,nofail,use$/dev/disk/by-label/HDDBackup /srv/dev-disk-by-label-HDDBackup ext4 defaults,$# <<< [openmediavault]
@Pascal51882 the way you are pasting the contents of your /etc/fstab is making it hard to see what’s going on - lines are getting wrapped and parts are being truncated. Type cat /etc/fstab to see what’s in the file and then when you paste those contents here use the formatting tools to format as preformatted text.
I am sorry for that. I also typed in the wrong command. I thought it was nano and not cat…
However here is the file:

My transcode drive is HDD1. Now I also see noexec.
Should it edited look like this?

First, I think that you are using blockquote to format things, not preformatted - preformatted is the “</>” option at the top. Yes, changing the noexec to exec is what you wanted to change. Once you’ve done that you can make the changes live by running this command:
mount -o remount,exec /srv/dev-disk-by-label-HDD1
Thank you. The Transcoder does now work!
Just keep in mind that any changes you make by hand to fstab are not permanent. OMV will overwrite that file when certain operations are performed and when that happens you are back where you started with broken transcoding.
Please ask over in the Openmediavault forum how to solve this permanently. You will have to make appropriate changes to other OMV system files.
