Nvidia Proxmox LXC passthrough only three 3 concurrent sessions

[looking111 19]

Hello all, 

on this Howto you can see that only 3 concurrent sessions are available on Nvidia Customers Cards. Can anyone confirm this? Do Nvidia cards still behave like this? And would it behave differently if it was not running virtualized? Or can someone recommend me alternative GPU's that work with Emby?

Very thanks

yes, 3 is the limit for the consumer grade cards, but if you search around the internet there are tutorials on how to get around the limitation.

The hardware itself isn't limited but only the drivers.  So as @mastrmind11 mentioned there are ways around this that work very well with Emby.

You mean the patch? https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch

Yes, that will do the job and is pretty much kept up to date as well.
