Andrew, are you saying that nv-codec-headers at 10.0.26.0 in the
current CinGG work with your GT710? and that the newest 12.2.72.0
does not? If so, then maybe we should not upgrade. When I look
at the support matrix (url below) it does not mention the GT710.
Do not worry, I only used proprietary driver from live dvd to see if
nvenc ever work at all. I normally use built-in nouveau, even if it
does not support encoding block on any hw.
Do not consider my oddball machine support as showstopper - I
definitely can roll my own build ;)
https://gssparks.github.io/post/can-a-geforce-gt710-nvenc/
yeah, gt710 is sort of two-cards-under-same-name, mine is Kepler
based so it worked ....
A side comment:
Before I rebuilt my legacy SM workstation, I replaced a GT730 with
GTX960 on the MSI mobo (from my upgraded Chieftec workstation)
https://www.asus.com/motherboards-components/graphics-cards/asus/gt730-sl-2gd3-brk-evo/
And then, about 6 months ago, I had the following drivers for GT 730
enabled on Leap15.5 and Slowroll respectively:
Device-1: NVIDIA GK208B [GeForce GT 730] driver: nvidia v: 470.256.02
Device-1: NVIDIA GK208B [GeForce GT 730] driver: nouveau v: kernel
https://developer.nvidia.com/video-encode-and-decode-gpu-support-matrix-new
BUT when I do a compare of the old one we have currently and the
latest at this website:
https://github.com/FFmpeg/nv-codec-headers/releases/tag/n12.2.72.0
I get the following differences which DO NOT say anything about
dropping support for any previous Nvidia graphics boards.
Below list the comparison which shows what was changed from the
older version to the latest
*Bump for (in-dev) 10.0.26.1*

Great so it will be included in the next release. Thank
you very much.
Can you also please copypaste min driver notes into our
release notes so it will be easier for me to track it in case
my older gt710 still stuck at older driver version (not a
blocker, I surely can swap headers back to 2020 version locally).
Thanks and sorry for relative inactivity. I hope to pick up
some steam ..... may he after formal New Year date?
Have (good) holidays!

Here is the AppImage with the latest nvencoders for
Nvidia graphics that goes with ffmpeg.

For comparison, here is the appimage containing the
original nvencoders from 2020.
https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/images/CinGG-20241031-x86_64.AppImage
I've did a quick test with h64_nvenc.mp4 and
h265_nvenc.mp4 (w/setting format=Not Interlaced)
Both AppImages works with similar fps speeds on my
Nvidia GF GTX 960.
I am not sure if encoding with formats
h264_nvenc.mp4, h265_nvenc.mp4, or h264_nvenc.qt
actually work from an AppImage that was created on a
computer that does not have an Nvidea graphics card
or its software. But for some reason, I do not
think that that matters and it should work.
Yes, nvenc works (as it correspondingly was expected
to do with onevpl for Intel qsv/hw).

Downloaded latest version of nv-codec-headers
release and built CinGG with it and no
problems here. Unfortunately the 4 different
computers I attempted to test on did not have
the correct Nvidia hardware or software. Why?
I do not know but will try one more later.
According to the /Readme
/https://github.com/FFmpeg/nv-codec-headers
/FFmpeg version of headers required to
interface with Nvidias codec APIs./
/Corresponds to Video Codec SDK version
12.0.16./
/Minimum required driver versions:/
/Linux: 550.54.14 or newer/
As shown in my previous post, the legacy (2015)
NV-GF GTX 960 runs with the following nv driver
version on Slowroll:
Graphics:
Device-1: Intel HD Graphics 530 driver:
i915 v: kernel
Device-2: NVIDIA GM206 [GeForce GTX 960]
driver: nvidia v: 550.135
If you want and have a test download, I can
give it a try on my legacy GF GTX 960 SkyLake
workstation, to see if your new AppImage
(still) works as previously.

Andrew,
most likely our nv headers drifted
from that ffmpeg-7.0/proprietary
driver assumes at runtime.
I have been wondering about
nv-codec-headers as we are at:
https://github.com/FFmpeg/nv-codec-headers/releases/tag/n10.0.26.0
but I am unsure about updating to:
https://github.com/FFmpeg/nv-codec-headers/releases/tag/n12.2.72.0
because if you look at:
https://github.com/FFmpeg/nv-codec-headers/releases/
the release versions go from 12.xx to
8.x and it is really weird AND there
is no year on the release dates but
just day and month.
Since it is such an important part of
ffmpeg inside CinGG, I am concerned
but will at least try the 12.2.72.0
just to see what it does.
in theory it should give users of new
nvidia hardware av1 encoding ...... but
not sure how it will work with older
drivers and hardware.
you can try to install something
like nv-codec-headers and then add
