Hi everyone!

I've searched the web for infos about which graphics card/GPU to get for 
using FFmpeg's hardware encoding/decoding features, but the results 
where either heavily dated or unclear.
If someone can point me at something, I'd be very grateful :)

Sorry if this has been asked a million times before, but:
-------------------
Which graphics card would you suggest to buy for a new PC (AMD Ryzer 
CPU) with the intention of FFmpeg running well with it?
What would the developers suggest?
-------------------


I knew about [FFmpeg on nvidia 
developer](https://developer.nvidia.com/ffmpeg), but I'd also be curious 
about the status with AMD GPUs?



Thank you very much in advance!
Peter B.
