Handbrake and Nvidia Cuda H265 support!!

Post by Darksider92 »

Hello Everyone.
i have one simple question,i want to put to bed once and for all.
is Handbrake is going to support h265 Cuda hardware encoding? or even AMD cards it doesn't matter.
i am not an expert in encoding but i've looked online and i've seen that GPU accelerated encoding is like night and day when it comes
to encoding speeds.
not everyone has a 7900x or 1800x CPU that can help you to encode your Videos faster.
Yes i know there are other Software that supports this feature like Pavetube and some others but i love Handbrake i like the interface i like the settings,i just wish we gonna see it supported in it.
Thank You,

No, CUDA is garbage for video encoding.

NVENC on the other hand is a possibility if someone comes around to contribute and support the code.

Ironically, (IIRC) the NVENC encoder API requires writing CUDA to configure/initialize the encoder etc. :D
