It might be about time to update ffmpeg and handbrake with the release of the 40 series gpus. Also, just to keep with the times, it might be nice to enable hardware encoding for av1. Thanks.

Goose, Rboy, how does 6.1 check out.

Yeah, I meant AV1. Fixed it. The encoder I can use is SVT and CPU bound. No GPU for me on a 2060. So staying on h.265 for now.

We have started work on the new versions. This is a big change because the new binaries no longer support older graphics cards so we’ll have a lot more work going into this release maintain support for older GPU’s while also adding support new GPU’s and codecs. Anyone else with a newer GPUs (AMD, Nv…

Oof! Did not know FFMPEG was dropping support for older cards. Or mencoder or handbrake if those are dropping support for older cards. I wonder how many MCEBuddy users have those older cards, given that newer low-end cards are relatively in the same range as the cost of MCEBuddy. And it’s not like…

Mike808, You are running an older card, Why not upgrade this holiday season. newegg has some good deals on the arc a380 also the rtx4060 is not too bad ether

@Goose I thought AMD doesn’t have AV1 encode yet, just decode. Did they add that in their drivers?

RBoy Goose, thanks for all the work on this, just sent a donation your way.

Drivers/API’s support it but the hardware needs to be out there (RDNA3 architecture like the Navi 3x and Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs) for mcebuddy to use it See this: GPU/Hardware Encoding/Acceleration FAQs

Some disappointing news, MCEBuddy fans using the new Handbrake 1.7.1 in the MCEBuddy 2.6.2 beta. Looks like we are going to need to upgrade Handbrake to 1.7.2 (GitHub) sooner rather than later. i.e. Manually replace MCEBuddy’s Handbrake CLI binary (and ‘hb.dll’ because on GitHub it is not linked in…
