Use RAM for Plex transcoding
I've tried with couple of repositories but I'm mainly using this one now: lscr.io/linuxserver/plex I gave up on this sometime ago but would now like to get at least RAM transcode working for Plex. The GPU transcode can wait.

Upgrade Plex in Docker not working
I found this, but don't see anything similar for ghcr.io in the images list in the docker UI.

Plex Docker hardware transcoding issue
I'm facing a similar issue. I reported it to the linuxserver team (publisher of that docker image), they think it's a plex issue. https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-plex/issues/357

Plexamp headless: passing the claim as an environment variable
I've messed with Plex in docker quite a lot though, so if you put your code in GitHub I should be able to point out an option for getting it done. Might not make sense for Plexamp for some reason, I've usually started with this repo https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-plex and forked when I was making my own Plex containers. I was thinking of doing that for Plexamp, but I've not looked at what's needed to map sound devices properly. It has an example of where to run a Plex claim script before starting up Plex to run as a service.

Using Intel eGPU QuickSync with Kubernetes for transcoding with Plex/Jellyfin etc...
FWIW it's probably not a great idea to use the Plex or Jellyfin (or any really) images from lsio. They do stupid shit like this which is not needed with Kubernetes. You can add a security context with those GIDs as supplemental groups. Also all their containers start as root which is not considered best practice.

Bad Plex Version?

Clarification on updating Plex via docker on Synology
The linuxserver plex image can actually check for updates when the container starts. It's a bit of an anti-pattern. Here's the script: https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-plex/blob/master/root/etc/s6-overlay/s6-rc.d/init-plex-update/run
