Updated nv-codec-headers from 10.0.26.0 to 12.2.72.0 and checked into
GIT. Andrey's builds should be automatically going now for newer O/S
package creation.
550.54.14 is "supposedly" the minimum required driver version for
Linux according to the README associated with the release. And this
is the same as what was written for the previous version. So whatever
worked before should still work. The previous information from a
forum post said that the minimum nvidia driver is 520-56-06 BUT I have
since reread that and determined that that was November 2022 - so out
of date.
"Supported Products" for the latest Linux driver v. 550.142 is available
here

Andrew, I am having difficulty interpreting the statement "min
driver note". According to:
https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/h264-nvenc-the-minimum-required-nvidia-driver-for-nvenc-is-520-56-06-or-newer/233144
the minimum nvidia driver is 520-56-06.
Is that what you mean should be included in the release notes?
I think this is official supported minimum driver version , yes.
But in slackware for example you can find older nvidia-legacy
driver I used for my older card.
Remember, NVIDIA, like all other companies, literally in business
selling you new hardware! So they "dark pattern" their info for
'nudging' users into using new hardware .....

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.
https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/testing/cin-x86_64_nvencupdate.AppImage
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
