Amount limit of Hardware encoder in sink

Accelerated Computing Intelligent Video Analytics DeepStream SDK

I run more than 3 deepstream in my server, all using Hardware encoder in sink. But I found that only 3 Hardware encoder is supported. When I ran the 4th deepstream, the error occur, no matter with rtmp or rtsp. Is this problem related to my GPU performance? or GPU driver? How could I run multiple deepstream and all using Hardware encoder.

Here is my log:

Please refer to the encoder number in your GPU: Video Encode and Decode GPU Support Matrix | NVIDIA Developer, seems the max encoder number is reached.

My GPU is Tesla T4, Total of NVENC is 1, Max # of concurrent sessions is Unrestricted. So what does it mean? Why can I only run 3 on my server?

6

Have you installed the correct GPU driver?
