Very nice, I have a similar setup but I use parsec to remote in to my gaming VM that has GPU passthrough. One interesting thing I noticed was if I wanted hardware encoding on my Plex server I had to pass the Intel quicksync extension as a PCI passthrough!?
One thing I want to experiment with is a raspberry pi that controls the larger homeserver such that I can remotely turn it on/off for power savings, but I want to do it in a seamless way. Something along the lines of if there's traffic to my Plex server the pi can detect the attempt and spin the VM up on demand
- mudkipme 3y agoI'm also thinking about reconfigure the Pi to things like PiKVM for remote controlling :) Hardware encoding requires a GPU, currently I believe the best option is Intel Quick Sync. (Of course if you are using a CPU without iGPU, such as Intel "F" series, NVENC and AMD VCE is also supported by many applications) So it needs to do PCI passthrough to the VM or using a LXC and passthrough it to the LXC container. One advantage of using LXC than VM is you can share a single GPU between multiple containers at no cost. Technically 12-Gen Intel CPU supports SR-IOV but I'm afraid that the iGPU performance is split among VMs.
