Plex Docker doesn't see /dev/dri?
From what I can tell Plex can't see /dev/dri at all, as I get 45-plex-hw-transcode-and-connected-tuner: exited 0. in the logs which according to the source code means it did not see an existing device. Going into the container shows there isn't a /dev/dri folder at all though it does exist on my local machine.

Pi-Hole/WireGuard and other Docker containers setup
I originally started using Docker because I wanted to run WireGuard alongside Pi-Hole and knew I would be wanting to add other containers and Docker's a good way to make everything play nicely. I originally wanted to install WireGuard immediately alongside Pi-Hole but that got shelved. The Plex Docker container can't be installed on Pi OS, there is an Plex docker container tough which is also causing me problems. IE: every time I update PMS (which is apparently a lot) it recreates the container, in addition to a lot of install errors.

Plex keeps writing to Unraid Cache drive while idle
Found it. The Docker container has a health check script. This script runs every 5 seconds. You can see this in the Plex console. Filter on "/identity".

Rootless docker vs podman: pros and cons?
The issue seems to be more that the container I'm trying to run is trying to chown a directory and runs into "Operation not permitted" issues. Specifically, this script is being executed and is failing, no matter which combination of user/namespace commands I am feeding it.

Plex server all in one?
The closest I can think of is the docker. If OP likes docker in their docker then they can start with RancherOS.

iOS Shortcuts: Check active streams in Plex before running server upgrade
This is nice, but if you're going to all this trouble then why aren't you just running PlexUpdate? It does everything in this shortcut (checking active streams and updating), but does it all automatically without you manually having to press a button.

All Plex media "Unavailable"
https://github.com/mrworf/plexupdate After using this script to update my plex server all my media is Unavailable. I don't think it's a permission problem because I changed the permission to 777 for all my files and folders.
