Transcoding Error Unraid Plex

Server Version#: Version 1.40.4.8679
Player Version#: Version 4.132.2
Hi,

I am running into transcoding errors when trying to watch content on devices that require the original content to be transcoded by plex, I am getting errors like this:

Failed to set value ‘vaapi=vaapi:’ for option ‘init_hw_device’: I/O error
[AVHWDeviceContext @ 0x147836efbe80] Failed to initialise VAAPI connection: -1 (unknown libva error).
Device creation failed: -5.
Error parsing global options: I/O error
[FFMPEG] - Failed to initialise VAAPI connection: -1 (unknown libva error).
Error while processing the decoded data for stream #0:1
Error while decoding stream #0:1: Invalid data found when processing input

These are all within the same error when trying to watch a movie on plex that needs to be transcoded. There are no subtitles for this movie at all and the player will usually say: Conversion failed. The transcoder exited due to an error.
