For over a decade, NVIDIA GPUs have been built with dedicated encoders and decoders called NVENC and NVDEC. They have a highly parallelized architecture, support popular codec formats, and provide direct access to GPU memory for optimized encode and decode operations. GPU-accelerated video means offloading your video processing to NVENCs and NVDECs, reducing CPU cycles…
