Re: Feature Request: Make Use of NVIDIA Hardware Video Decoding/Encoding with FFmpeg

I don't recall, but i think they use the same function in the code. I believe I just used ffmpeg and outputted all the frames manually instead of trying to mess around with the code for the extraction process as it was faster. Sorry it was a while back and a one off. I ended up just using lower reso...

Re: Feature Request: Make Use of NVIDIA Hardware Video Decoding/Encoding with FFmpeg

I had this probably about a year ago when doing 4k content. Encoding is ridiculously slow as well as decoding because its using the CPU and no accelerator. I was able to get it to use the built in nvenc and nvdec by downloading the source and editing some of the files. Inside the file ./plugins/conv...

Re: ffmpeg using cpu to encode on convert

I'm not sure why it says its not detected, I'm watching it use the heck out of both GPU's cuda cores and vram on my system via nvidia-smi command while its training. I'm doing 13.7 EG/sec on villain with 100% coverage and 32 batch size. My CPU's are basically idle while its running. I had the latest...

Re: ffmpeg using cpu to encode on convert

I did a comparison on a 720p video: opencv: 8m 11s ffmpeg: 8m 18s This isn't as drastic because h264/720p is not that complex, however when I performed the process on a 4 minute 5k video, ffmpeg was adding an additional 30+ minutes to encode the results into h265. I ended up having it output the ima...

ffmpeg using cpu to encode on convert

When I run a convert, ffmpeg does not detect a GPU and uses the CPU to encode the content ( software not hardware encoding ). This makes the final step take a long time. Is there an option I am missing or a reason why ffmpeg decides to use software cpu based encoding, or am I missing something else....
