The encoder isn’t meant to be a hwaccel - it uses hardware encoding when 
available, but I think it should fallback to software in the default case when 
hardware isn’t available.

One use case of this encoder is using a device-side H.264 encoder, so it 
doesn’t matter if it’s software or hardware.

How about a flag or option to require hardware?
