So I did a quick test, and if I disabled “Hardware Encoding” then it uses Handbrake.
So what I can’t figure out is a) if it’s not using Handbrake normally because it can’t find QSV then b) why does it not seem to be using NVENC with ffmpeg (based on the log file above), even though it’s detected?
Is this usually just some weird issue with the drivers? I’m inclined to just disabled Hardware Encoding so that I can use Handbrake, but I’d love to understand it all first…
