Hello,
I am trying to use Video Conferences (MCU) from Freeswitch with libav (ffmpeg 3.2 from jessie-backports) with NVIDIA Tesla P4 (encoder nvenc).
After 19 video calls (720p), when enter new video call it gives me the next error from libav
avcodec.c:981 Could not open codec (-12)(Cannot allocate memory)
I got the next output from nvidia-smi: nvidia-smi output - FreeSWITCH Pastebin

I am also monitoring the status of NVIDIA Card, with the command nvidia-smi and i check that Freeswitch allocates 2432MB on graphic card and the graphic card have more than 5000MB of memory free. The GPU used is arround 3%, so i think the NVIDIA can support more video calls.
There is any limitation for this card, that doesn’t allow to use the NVENC encoder ?
