Question / Help Using NVENC HEVC

[FabecS]

Hello, I noticed that for the recordings I'm using NVENC H.264 (new) as the encoder but I learned that HEVC encoder is the best and since I have a RTX 2060 super I think I'm capable of using such encoder but I can't find it when choosing between the options. Any idea why?

You have to change "Type" to "Custom Output (FFmpeg)". From there, go down to a box that says "Show All Codecs (even if potentially incompatible)" and check the box. Then, go to "Video Encoder" and select "hvec_nvenc (nvenc_hvec)".

That works but if you want even more encoding options, install StreamFX.
