Cuda on gtx1060

[Bad58]

Hello
Today i test my new GTX1060 and now CUDA dont work. the nvida gtx1060 has CUDA 6.1.
Is there any chance to make CUDA working ?
I want to set the Bitrate to 30000000.

NVENC works good but the max Bitrate is after testing 17895555.

it seems the problem is the "Pascal" Chip on new Cards.

is it possible to change the bitrate in NVENC to 30000000 ?

Please fix this in future updates !

Thanks

Works with one of you cuda with a gtx 1060 ?

Some of your questions are little beyond my knowledge but hardware encoders do have their own bitrate limitation that you will not have with software encoding.
You might want to make sure the bitrate is not being limited by the target size, you might want to set it to 100gb and see if that changes anything.

I'll see if someone else can answer your question about cuda and gtx1060

[Bad58]

with my old card gtx760 cuda works fine. i set the bitrate to max. and get a fill disk with one film.
now with gtx1060 when i make this i get an error. only nvenc works. cuda dont work with this card.

i think its the new cuda version. hope you make cuda working with new gtx1060,70,80

Hello,

CUDA is the old Nvidia hardware encoding implementation when NVENC is the new...
Maybe Nvidia disabled old CUDA implementation in recent drivers to force NVENC uses.

Did you checked your Nvidia driver settings to see if CxtoHD is allowed to use hardware encoders?*

Hello

only changed my GPU from gtx760 to gtx1060 (same driver)

with gtx760 cuda with 30000000bits works fine.

i think its the new cuda version. i will make a Blu-ray with one film and get a target size 23000MB.

testing with older driver, but still an errror with cuda. the max bitrate for NVENC is 17890000bits.

Hope Problem will be sloved in version 3

[cedric]

Can you please post a (good/not empty) log file?

Regards,

[Bad58]

hope it helps to sloved the problem

i think some libarys must be updated to make cuda works with new pascal chips.

with gtx760 reencode with nvenc ca. 70fps now with gtx1060 ca. 200fps. thats why i buy this card.

Hello,

Can you retry with hardware decoding (DXVA2) disabled?

Regards,

[Bad58]

How can I deactivate (DXVA2) ? do you mean with cpu reencoding ? works but only 15fps (3 hours convertion time)

Another question how can I try kronos opencl ?

[cedric]

Go in hardware acceleration section (where you choose hardware encoders too), then set decoder instances to 0...
For OpenCL, same section, move opencl encoder line (if available) on top of the list using arrow.

Regards,

[Bad58]

still error with cuda, nvenc works fine with this max. bitrate.

What do I need to use kronos ?

Testing uninstall driver complet with "ddu", uninstall cxtohd then install driver and cxtohd. Still error with cuda option.

why nvenc dont work with 30000000 bits.(in logfile maxrate=30000000) ?

make a short test with another programm (DVDFAB 10) cuda works without problems. but i dont like this programm !

[cedric]

OpenCL is usually used for ATI grahic cards...

Hello

testing with new Version 2.0.0.84b

still same error with cuda

[Bad58]

testing with 2.0.0.86b

still same error with cuda

max bitrate with nvenc only 17895697

[Bad58]

testing with 2.0.087b

still no cuda

Hello,

Cedric was able to connect to your machine (thanks for allowing this).

The recap he gave me was the following:
- he installed the latest CUDA SDK on your machine and tested previous versions and the drivers were still not working

Cedric presumes it is Nvidia blocks the use of CUDA when NVENC is available.

You originally wanted to be able to adjust the bitrate (not having been able to make it as high with NVENC) but you confirmed that when watching the converted result with NVENC the visual quality as very good.

[Bad58]

I think it should be in your interest that your products with the newest hardware works.
Other software does not have this problem.
It again tested with an old graphics card. it works.
Apologize if I'm nerve with my problems.
