Hello,

I am currently trying to get OBS-Studio to use the NVENC encoder instead of x264 on Gentoo Linux.
OBS simply crashes without a proper error code or anything when trying to start the stream. I linked both the log from OBS and the obs --verbose terminal output.
The stream works when using x264 but I'd prefer NVENC to reduce CPU load.

I did install all packages using the NVENC flag.

Since I had trouble with lutris earlier regarding it using the proper drivers because gentoo manages those different or something, I add this here:

I am not sure if something similar could be the cause of the problem but it doesn't sound to unlikely, sorry if I am wrong there.
