==== NVENC ====
Nvidia GPU's use NVENC for hardware encoding. To use this, CUDA must be enabled:
{{Code|1={
  nix.settings = {
    substituters = [
      "https://cache.flox.dev"
    ];
    trusted-public-keys = [
      "flox-cache-public-1:7F4OyH7ZCnFhcze3fJdfyXYLQw/aV7GEed86nQ7IsOs="
    ];
  };
  nixpkgs.config.cudaSupport = true;
}|lang=nix}}
