intranetsnob 0 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Hi there, How do you know if your container is being transcoded on the WEB UI (dashboard) using GPU instead of CPU. also, how do you enable GPU transcode Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8356 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 What do you see on the Dashboard Active Devices? As you can see in my test it is using GPU for decoding and encode, otherwise it would show software for both. What is Dashboard-Transcoding "Enable hardware acceleration when available" set to?

intranetsnob 0 Posted December 1, 2019 Author Share Posted December 1, 2019 Hi, See attached what mine shows. Definitely nothing like yours plus no blue icon on the side either. + screenshot attached for dashboard settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8356 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Hi, See attached what mine shows. Definitely nothing like yours plus no blue icon on the side either. + screenshot attached for dashboard settings. Have you looked through the Wiki for Linux? If you have the devs will probably need the hardware_detection and maybe server log. https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Hardware-Acceleration-on-Linux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intranetsnob 0 Posted December 1, 2019 Author Share Posted December 1, 2019 Thanks, I will look through it again. Was there anything you did on the dashboard to enable your GPU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8356 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I am on Windows, but I only enabled transcoding to yes via the dashboard. Selecting Advanced allows further tweaking, but since you don't see any decoders or encoders it is more then likely one of the requirements via that wiki page.

intranetsnob 0 Posted December 9, 2019 Author Share Posted December 9, 2019 Hi Luke, So been going through the steps. My system has an integrated igpu instead of an external gpu. Does that mean emby premium would still utilize the igpu for transcode or does it only work with external Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intranetsnob 0 Posted December 9, 2019 Author Share Posted December 9, 2019 Thanks. I can not figure out if my igpu actually works with transcode. Is there a way to identify this? Slightly lost here as would like to see it running to take the load of cpu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intranetsnob 0 Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 Hi, I have enabled it through pgblitz but enabled. What is the correct command to ensure it enabled? I still don't get it recognized inside emby under transcode, advanced, preferred hardware Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37250 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I still don't get it recognized inside emby under transcode, advanced, preferred hardware We don't officially support this inside Docker yet, so right now we don't have all the answers about how to set it up. But others have done it, so it can work, it just requires some user setup on your part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intranetsnob 0 Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 Ok Luke, Thank you for that. It's a far stretched and does not make sense why it doesn't show under the advance options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarc 0 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) Is there a way to confirm from the CLI debug output that hardware decoding is actually being used? Tutuapp9appsShowbox Edited December 18, 2019 by clarc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D34DC3N73R 18 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Your docker run command or docker-compose would help diagnose the issue. Are you adding `--device=/dev/dri` ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intranetsnob 0 Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 All I want is the Emby via docker to recognize the igpu, it is enabled however for some reason not passing through the docker. I also want to avoid sideloading it as that seems to be the only way if docker does not recognize the igpu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the docker-compose I use with an igpu emby: image: emby/embyserver container_name: emby restart: unless-stopped ports: - 8096:8096 - 8920:8920 environment: - TZ=$TZ - UID=$PUID - GID=$GUID - GIDLIST=$VIDEOGID volumes: - /home/admin/.config/emby:/config - /data/media/Video:/data/media/Video - /data/media/Music:/data/media/Music - /dev/shm:/transcode devices: - /dev/dri:dev/dri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
