Show full GPU Extra Parameters string everywhere it appears

README-Transcoding now has a dedicated REQUIRED EXTRA PARAMETERS section with both GPU and non-GPU variants and the Google warning up front. Manual-Transcoding: two troubleshooting sections that showed mount-only now show both GPU and non-GPU full strings. NVIDIA section quote style fixed (--gpus "device=UUID" consistently).

+## ━━━ REQUIRED EXTRA PARAMETERS ━━━

+> **Stop. Set this before starting Emby or Jellyfin. If you Google how to add GPU
+> access to a Docker container on unRAID you will find the wrong answer.** Every
+> forum post and guide shows `--runtime=nvidia` + `NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES`. That
+> method conflicts with `bind-propagation=shared` on unRAID 7.2.5+ and breaks on
+> container rebuilds. Use `--gpus` instead.
+
+In the unRAID Docker template, open **Advanced View** and paste the following into
+the **Extra Parameters** field. Do not use the path mapping UI for the transcode
+directory — it does not support `bind-propagation`.
+
+**GPU-accelerated (Emby, Jellyfin with NVENC/NVDEC) — use this:**
+```
+--gpus "device=GPU-62e1659d-1ed4-935f-3df3-4bb4339438f1" --pids-limit=0 --mount type=bind,source=/mnt/ram-transcode,target=/ext-ram-transcode,bind-propagation=shared
+```
+
+**Non-GPU — use this:**
+```
+--mount type=bind,source=/mnt/ram-transcode,target=/ext-ram-transcode,bind-propagation=shared
+```
+
+In Emby and Jellyfin's transcoding settings, set the transcode temp path to `/ext-ram-transcode`.
+
+Find your GPU UUID: `nvidia-smi -L`  
+HOST1 GPU UUID (Quadro P2000): `GPU-62e1659d-1ed4-935f-3df3-4bb4339438f1`
