How to know program is using hardware encoder

Hi all,

I tried to use gstreamer to record video from camera stream. The CPU usage is super high comparing to using command to record video. I am thinking maybe the hardware encoder is not used

How can I know whether the hardware encoder is used?

Thanks in advance

Hi,
You can run sudo tegrastats and check whether NVENC shows up. We have enabled hardware acceleration in gstreamer and jetson_multimedia_api. And there is a package for ffmpeg. For more information, please take a look at developer guide
