NVENC is a discrete silicon IP block on your GPU. It’s either there (if supported on the GPU) or not. Cards prior to Kepler, including rebranded mobile GPUs from the Fermi architecture do not have NVENC on them. The same also applies to the Lower tier Gx1x8 GPU lines such as the GT 1030 and the Quadro P500. If you have one of these cards mentioned, you cannot use NVENC. 2. Typically, when ffmpeg reports the “no NVENC device found” error, then the command line in use is calling up encoder arguments not compatible with NVENC on your current GPU. Common examples: Specifying an unusable pixel format, or attempting to encode interlaced content on Turing. 3. If you’re specifically seeing “no CUDA device found” then confirm that your device driver is indeed installed. The nvidia-smi tool can confirm this. For the reason in 2 and 3 above, please provide the full console output from ffmpeg. To verify if (1) applies to you, also provide the output from nvidia-smi. I’m assuming that you have the device driver installed at the very least. > > _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
