NVENC Support

[Moehammered]

Hi there. Thank you for the interest and offer of support. It is much appreciated :)

To give a bit of insight into why it is extremely low priority for me. My current GPU is an AMD 5600XT. When I am implementing the codec support, I need to do lots of testing during development. Some of that testing is trial and error to observe what codec parameters are worth displaying to the user.

I have a GTX 1050ti. So a test machine is not much of an issue for me when implementing the support. It just requires me to uninstall my gpu then setup the 1050ti and leave it in my machine until support is complete.

The bigger concern I have is offering support once it is implemented. I get many questions and I try to answer and offer support to all of them. However, since I will not permanently have an NVIDIA gpu installed any support requests or issues with the NVIDIA codec will take a long time to resolve or I will be unable to offer support.

Considering all this, I'd rather focus on the things and issues that are universal to all users first. Especially in recent since I have little time due to full time work plus my side work.

That all said, if you know how to use ffmpeg you can definitely help me out! If you could test all h264_nvenc codec parameters in ffmpeg while recording your screen and taking note of any parameters that particularly improve latency or quality that'd be good :)

Thank you once again for the offer and your patience. :)
