Error adding GPU to Plex after moving to ElectricEel-24.10.2

ynk1121 · March 20, 2025, 1:37am

Finally made the move to 24.10.2 from 24.04.2.5. Everything seemed to go fine. Tried to use Plex and notice no GPU transcoding. Went into the Plex settings and saw no Nvidia option. Went into Apps settings and checked install Nvidia drivers. That gave the option to “Use this GPU” for my RTX A2000 in the Plex settings. I check it off, press save and get this error:

Two things:

Make sure the Nvidia driver of installed under apps then configuration.
Run nvidia-smi from the shell

I would just add screenshots of that stuff but they apparently nuked everyone’s account during this awful forum redesign and I must not have enough posts or something because “An error occurred: Sorry, you can’t embed media items in a post”. Nice. There is a checkmark in “install Nvidia drivers”, and running smi wrote out the driver version and my card info.

See https://www.truenas.com/docs/scale/24.10/gettingstarted/scalereleasenotes/#known-issues for a workaround.

Awesome. Thank you. This worked.
