You’ll want to set the Config Type to Device and set both the Name and Value fields to /dev/dri.Ĭlick Add to save the new variable and then click Apply at the bottom to save your container and restart it. Scroll to the bottom and click Add another Path, Port, Variable, Label or Device. Navigate to the Docker tab in your Unraid Web UI, click on the icon for your Plex container, and click Edit. The next step is to pass through our Quick Sync device to our Plex Docker container. To save it, press Ctrl X then Y then Enter. #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility Do this by launching your Unraid terminal using the first icon in the top right of your Unraid Web UI and typing in the following command:
#Unraid setup ssds driver
The first thing we will need to do is setup the driver for Quick Sync. If you did, this probably isn’t the guide for you as you’d probably want to enable hardware encoding on that instead. If you set up your Unraid server using the onboard graphics, this should already be the case unless you plugged in a discrete graphics card. Once you know you have a compatible CPU, you will need to ensure that you have iGPU enabled on your motherboard in the BIOS.

However, in some cases there must be a video cable plugged into your machine for this to work and if you want to run your server without having it connected to a monitor, you’ll have to use some kind of HDMI display emulator dongle.

If you’re familiar with Plex and Unraid, feel free to skip straight to the TL DR at the bottom. Using Hardware-Accelerated Streaming | Plex Support
And if you use the same computer for both work and play, hardware acceleration uses less processing power during video streaming, giving you back the speed you need.
When hardware acceleration is turned on, Plex Media Server will use the dedicated video decoder and encoder hardware support in your computer/device to convert videos, letting you stream HD or 4K video more smoothly and stream to more devices at once. To convert videos faster and with less processing power, you can turn on Hardware-Accelerated Streaming in Plex Media Server. Here is a quick snippet Plex Support explaining it:
#Unraid setup ssds how to
I am not going to go in depth about what Hardware Accelerated Streaming is, but this will be a quick guide on how to implement it if you have a compatible Intel CPU. How to Setup Hardware-Accelerated Streaming in Plex with Intel Quick Sync on Unraid
