Script to delete iHD_drv_video.so on linuxserver/plex Docker containers
Raw
delete_ihd_driver.sh
#!/bin/bash
## Bug with iHD_drv_video.so Intel media driver as of 2020-05-31.
## Need to force Plex to choose i965_drv_video.so on Gemini Lake CPUs.
## This is done by:
## adding this script to your /config/custom-cont-init.d/ folder on linuxserver/plex Docker containers
## or
## manually via command line by:
## docker exec -it name_of_plex_container /bin/bash -c "rm /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib/dri/iHD_drv_video.so;exit 0"

IHD_PATH='/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib/dri/iHD_drv_video.so'
if [ -e $IHD_PATH ]
then
echo '**** iHD driver found, deleting file. ****'
rm $IHD_PATH
fi
exit 0
