zfrenchy 9 Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 First, I cannot find any section in linux for UNRAID, I post here, but feel free to move to the right section. I finally update my UNRAID server to latest version (6.10.3), then install Nvidia plugin driver. I am a lifetime Premier sub for EMBY, here is a screenshot of transcoding settings, Nvidia is not showing What I am missing ? what direction should I look ? here is the logs embyserver.txt hardware_detection-63793658771.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RanmaCanada 327 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 First off how are you running UNRAID? Is it in a Docker, or is it in a VM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36884 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Also have you taken a look at this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zfrenchy 9 Posted July 18, 2022 Author Share Posted July 18, 2022 Yes, Emby is a UNRAID Docker. @Luke looking at it now ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zfrenchy 9 Posted July 18, 2022 Author Share Posted July 18, 2022 @Luke That is wayyyyy above my knowledge ... also doesn't look related to UNRAID, but some Linux OS, which is outside my comfort zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is Docker related though. It can help you pass the GPU through the Docker container so that Emby Server can detect it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zfrenchy 9 Posted July 19, 2022 Author Share Posted July 19, 2022 @Luke Ok, pass the GPU through the Docker container, how to do that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zfrenchy 9 Posted July 20, 2022 Author Share Posted July 20, 2022 I cannot believe I am the only one on the planet who has a GTX1660Ti, UNRAID and Emby !???? NOBODY USE Nvidia hardware acceleration ? I doubt it ! I bought Emby premiere to use hardware acceleration, update my UNRAID server to install Nvidia card (now my 10GB network not working because of latest version of UNRAID), bought a new graphics card for decoding/encoding, AND STILL not enough !!!!? I SERIOUSLY NEED HELP TO FIX EMBY HARDWARE ACCELERATION, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuelqwe 313 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I would love to offer more direct help, but I don't use an Nvidia GPU on my Unraid system. I only use my Intel iGPU for HW transcoding. However, this video by SpaceInvaderOne (he makes awesome videos on Unraid) is a pretty good breakdown of what you need to do to get it working. Obviously, ignore the parts about Plex and Jellyfin. He does use the LinuxServer container for Emby, but this method would also work for the official Emby container, albeit with some slight differences in the container configuration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zfrenchy 9 Posted July 21, 2022 Author Share Posted July 21, 2022 @samuelqwe thank you soooo much, problem solved !!!! The video tuto is a bit outdated, but still working fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution zfrenchy 9 Posted July 21, 2022 Author Solution Share Posted July 21, 2022 (edited) Solution: 1- in UNRAID, install the Nvidia plugin called "Nvidia driver" 2- stop then restart the "docker service" located in the "settings tab" 3- On "docker tab", click the blue link "EmbyServer", settings appear 4- right on top, go to "AVANCED VIEW" 5- Found the line called "Extra Parameters", and enter --runtime=nvidia 6- Click APPLY, DONE 7- Open Emby, go to settings 8- At "Transcoding Tab", choose "Advanced" in the drop-down 9- select coding and decoding you want, then "SAVE" YOU DONE ! Here is a quick video of 4k H265 120Mbps video playback on 1GB ethernet LAN. Edited July 21, 2022 by zfrenchy 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usr115 1 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 An old thread, but this was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you zfrenchy, for putting this in such a straight to the point way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leitenky 4 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) I have intel igpu and Nvidia. I want to test with both GPUs, is there a way to test with intel? Can I add both somehow to test the performance of both? If i wanted to test Intel, would I switch --runtime=nvidia to --runtime=intel? (Intel iGPU is i5-13500 CPU) Edited January 11 by leitenky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Intel iGPU is i5-13500 CPU) That iGPU isn't supported on the stable build yet for transcoding with QuickSync. It is supported on the beta which should be releasing to stable very shortly. To answer your question though, if you want to run both, keep the --runtime=nvidia as it is in the extra paramaters. Add a device to the container. The value for that should be /dev/dri This will add it in. You also need to make sure you have the intel top gpu plugin installed as well in unRAID. Let me know if you have any questions.
