Some of these answers seem to be talking about apssing through a HDD to a qemu (qm) virtual machine, rather than an LXC container. It took me a while to get OpenMediaVault working in an LXC container, but you can see my solution here...

I am working (and close to achieving) running Emby.tv (similar to Plex) in one container and Kodi in another container with direct access to the main HDMI (audio + video) out of the Proxmox box. This way you can keep the stability of putting these apps in containers whilst still taking advantage...

Thanks Tom - I since I am looking to output full-hd video from Kodi right from the box I guess x2go isn't going to work for me... Or are you using the x2go server in the container and x2go client on the host? Would that work particularly well for video or would it me and unnecessary amount of...

Hi Spirit - Have you had any luck adding support for this to Proxmox, can you give an example of what config changes would need to be made to 'passthrough' a graphics card so I can get a video output from one of my containers? M

Just another update for my own reference and in case it helps anyone... The "mknod" command is not persistent, so it would need to be run each time the container is started. To make things persistent you can use a script stored on the Proxmox host which is triggered by a setting in the...

Ahhh - Perfect, thanks for the tip! Using info from this site, I ran: mknod -m 666 /dev/sda b 8 16 mknod -m 666 /dev/sda1 b 8 17 Now everything seems to be working Thanks for all your help :)

Oh! - Silly me. Thanks for explaining! I have added: lxc.aa_profile = lxc-container-default-with-mounting lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = b 8:16 rwm lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = b 8:17 rwm But I don't see anything with fdisk -l or ls /dev Do you know how I should be attaching a physical disk so it...

I have updated to beta 2, but I still can't work how I should be getting this to work. Could somebody please explain where I should be adding custom LXC config statements? Thanks! :)

Yes, I have seen this before which is why I think it should be possible to achieve - but it's too complicated for me to understand and I'm not entirely sure how it translates to various commands within ProxMox or the CLI. HELP! :)

Sorry, I probably shouldn't have used the word "pass-through" I know you can't pass-through physical hardware in LXC (and because I don't have VT-d I can't pass-through in KVM either. However, my understanding is that you can passthrough any device in the host kernel to the container and the...

I have an Intel J1900 Baytrail motherboard which I use at home as a: pfSesne router NAS (OpenMediaVault) Personal cloud server (OwnCloud) Legal Torrent downloader (rTorrent + ruTorrent) Home PBX (FreePBX) Media catalogue (EMBY) Media player (Kodi) The J1900 board does not support VT-d so to...

Thanks Spirit. Is there a schedule for package builds or are they just produced when there are enough changes in git? M

Ah - OK, thanks for letting me know. I'll make sure I set all my limits appropriately.

Hi all I have been experimenting with LXC, in particular OpenMediaVault running on Debian 7 in a container and I've found that after using the container for a while Proxmox shows the memory usage above 90% (sometimes 100%), but within the container itself running the free command shows that...

Hi Spirit and Dietmar Were you able to make the updates you mentioned? I've not seen any new updates available via apt-get. Should I be getting these updates in a different way? Thanks, Matt
