Hi,

 

Sorry to post a seperate querry on this. But Im not being able to access Hardware Encoding on VBR 2 Pass. Below are my System Specs

Custom Build

CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Eight Core - 3GHz

GPU - RTX 2060Super 8gb

RAM - 16gb

 

Is this something with my system or does hardware encoding not support 2-Pass VBR?

Correct answer ah_photo

Hardware encoding (or at least NVENC/AMD GPU encoding) does not support 2-pass VBR. I couldn't tell you the reason why, but I'm sure there is a reason! haha

No app that I am aware of can do hardware encoding with 2-pass encoding. RJL can give the details, but that's the short answer.

Thanks for the info Neil. A few questions - 

1. What is RJL?

2. Why cant it do a 2 pass?

3. Isn't a VBR 2 pass basically a first pass of rendering and a second pass of compiling in the final container? If so, then whats the processing overhead on that like?

4. Can I upgrade my hardware to enable this?

 

Thanks a lot!
