Hello there
I use a DELL T7920 workstation, I am doing hardware encoding with the quadro m2000 graphics card. I’m doing video encoding with nvenc_264 with tvheadend program. the CPU is loading 60% of the time while it needs to fully process with the GPU. I did the cuda setup

There are 5 transcoding operations.
Why am I making a mistake in using the CPU too much. I fully appreciate the code as hardware with the graphics card. if we increase the number of encodig, the CPU is increasing in parallel
