Missing Hardware Acceleration

[devin_mm 3]

I am looking to migrate my Emby installation from a Windows VM to a Linux VM (specifically Ubuntu).

The only two things I have running on this VM are nvidia-headless-440 drivers and Emby, the GPU is properly detected by the OS, everything shows as good with nvidia-smi but I am getting errors in the hardware_detection log.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Hi there, did you follow our hardware acceleration setup guide?

Hello thanks for the reply, yes I did follow the setup guide there's isn't much info just a minimum driver version of 390 and I am running 440. I am running a Quadro RTX 5000 and was doing so successfully in Windows so I know it's not the hardware.

I fixed it, I am an idiot and tried to get cute.

I installed the headless drivers since this is just a server VM and I didn't think it would need the full driver set.

I removed nvidia-headless-440 and installed nvidia-driver-440 and now my transcoding shows up. It's a chunky install ~1.1GB but worth it.
