I'm working on adding some storage to my Debian desktop-grade home server that I use to host a couple of VMWare VMs, and some Docker services (GitLab, Plex, misc software dev tools). I'm intending to set up TrueNAS Scale to manage my new storage (and just to play with it's container features), and I'm interesting in maybe adding hardware to allow Plex to do hardware transcoding.

My question is if I have my Plex Docker container running via TrueNAS and I install an appropriate GPU, can I give Plex access to that GPU for hardware transcoding?

I did try Jellyfin about a year again after being frustrated by the Plex API, but I had a lot of problems with the app on one of my TVs. I've since replaced that one though, so I should probably give it a try again, the move was pretty painless otherwise.
