SYSTEM DETAILS:
MB:
ASUS Pro WS W680-ACE
CPU: Intel i5 13500
DRAM: DDR5-4800 64GB
GPU: RTX3050
Edit: Forgot to mention SCALE verions: 22.12.1

Just completed my first TrueNAS SCALE build over the weekend and I am slowly migrating my media library over to the server. I was trying to install Plex today while waiting around for the transfer to finish. During the installation configuration, whether it is through the iXsystems or the Truecharts version of Plex, I do not get an option to select the installed GTX3050 for hardware transcode:

However, it does look like the card is being recognized by the system:

Seeing that this is my first build I figure it's something obvious I missed. Many many thanks upfront on any suggestions!!!

EDIT: I guess technically I should also see the iGPU from my i5-13500 and that one is not showing up either ...

UPDATE: I was able to resolve the issue. When I changed the Primary GPU setting in BIOS from "Auto" to "PCIE", the nVIDIA GPU now shows as available for allocation to Plex.
