There is a problem with the hardware acceleration of using wsl2 docker

[kooapk 12]

I installed emby in windows wsl2 and docker mode.

My graphics card is nvidia GPX 960

First of all, I installed the special driver that wsl2 can use the gpu

nvidia-smi

Hi, have you taken a look at the GPU notes in our Docker setup guide?

https://hub.docker.com/r/emby/embyserver

Have you tried our official Docker container rather than linuxserver?

Thank you for the solution. Since there is a problem with Linux server's emby. Why is it released. So many people still use it

I don't have nvidia-container-toolkit installed by nvidia-container-runtime
