Adding on to the previous mail,
To test this patch, please try :

i) ffmpeg -y -i $INPUT -vcodec h264_nvenc -preset medium $OUT_medium.mp4
ii) ffmpeg -y -i $INPUT -vcodec h264_nvenc -preset slow $OUT_slow.mp4

Without patch : $OUT_medium and $OUT_slow will be binary identical since both use NV_ENC_PARAMS_RC_VBR With patch : $OUT_medium and $OUT_slow will be different and ii) will take more time to run and usually results in better quality. Thanks

Ganapathy

Hi,


qmin and qmax are not necessary for nvenc vbr. Enforcing this constraint, doesn't allow user to use vbr 2 pass mode (

NV_ENC_PARAMS_RC_2_PASS_VBR) without explicity setting the qmin and qmax options and reverts to the default vbr mode (

NV_ENC_PARAMS_RC_VBR). If needed user can still set qmin and qmax and those will be obeyed. Please review. Thanks.


Regards

Ganapathy Kasi
