Hardware encoder question

Help/How To
1

Is the ‘nvtop’ utility the right way to check if hardware acceleration is working properly?

In my case Shotcut detects ‘h264_nvenc’ and ‘hevc_nvenc’ encoders and the support has been checked in the export settings but the nvtop still shows 0% GPU usage.

Im running the Shotcut on flatpak Linux.

edit: CPU usage is about 50% on 6 cores (12 threads).

I would recommend to look in the export log to see if the encoder is being used. It should be apparent from the export log messages.
