If you have a local rendering farm, will there not be a conflict with multiple programs trying to access the single video encoder hardware of the GPU? MatN On Sat, 27 Jun 2020 14:38:02 +0200, Andrea paz wrote: >Trying a local render farm with the master in h264-nevenc I have the >following

Alrighty.. suggesting then that render farms slaves are running their own local settings / config I'll install all HW accelerators on salves and see what happens. They have different cpu / motherboards /GPU Cheers E On Sat, 2020-06-27 at 14:38 +0200, Andrea paz wrote: > Using nvenc without

Ed, we do not have a definitive answer for this and really have no easy way to test, but if we think of some way to test, will attempt it. > I am using several headless machines (cin -d 1200) as a render farm. > > My understanding is that generally headless machines would not have any >

Hi all I am using several headless machines (cin -d 1200) as a render farm. Question : If the master node is using an accelaration (HW) do the slave nodes automatically use the said acceleration ? if no but is a matter of local configuration for a slave where can I set it up ? Now, to make it
