File Location?

Where would I find the file to change for nomodeset on 18.04 that hetzner.cfg does not exist? the first file did and I edited it. Just can't find the grub.d file to edit

Ubuntu 16.04 works, vainfo throws errors

on the i9-8700 EX61 I updated the kernel, then followed your guide and it works, only thing is vainfo throws up an error, but I'm still able to use ffmpeg with vaapi. maybe mention in the guide that vainfo failing does not mean ffmpeg cannot use it

here's the output

This is what intel top looks like while encoding, all the detailed metrics are missing, but overall the load seems to track normally

HW Transcoding stops working after a while

Hey. I'm hoping you can help me. I've been running this setup for a while but twice now HW transcoding just stopped working. It would load up the video but then as soon as it needs start transcoding it just hangs forever. No time out, no errors in the Plex logs, it just hangs. Direct streams still work. The weird / bizarre thing is that it works for Roku, iOS and Android clients but stops working for anyone using a browser or windows plex client. The only way to resovle the issue is to either disable HW transcoding or reboot the server.

I'm running a Hetzner EX61-NVMe. I double checked my config because I thought I might have missed a step but everything looks good. What do you think the issue could be?
