Maximum width and height supported by hardware encoder

What is the maximum width and height supported by H264 and H265 hardware encoders in AGX Orin? I have run some tests in a AGX Orin devkit 64GB with image resolution 4843x2346 using both encoders where H265 runs good but H264 raised the following error:

NvMMLiteOpen : Block : BlockType = 4 
===== NvVideo: NVENC =====
NvMMLiteBlockCreate : Block : BlockType = 4 
H264: Profile = 100, Level = 0 
NvMMLiteNvVideoCreate:3805: NvVideoEncodeCreate failed

After lowering width below 4096 the issue was resolved. But I would like to know for each jetson architecture (nano, xavier, orin) what is the maximum resolution supported by each hardware encoder. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please check the capability in module data sheet:

Jetson Download Center | NVIDIA Developer
Jetson AGX Orin Series Data Sheet (Including AGX Orin Industrial)

The maximum resolution is 4K. We would suggest set to standard 4K 3840x2160 although larger-than-4K resolution may work in H265 encoding.
