[hevc_nvenc @ 0x560aa0890480] Driver does not support the required nvenc API version. Required: 9.1 Found: 9.0 [hevc_nvenc @ 0x560aa0890480] The minimum required Nvidia driver for nvenc is 435.21 or newer Error initializing output stream 0:0 -- Error while opening encoder for output stream #0:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height

CHECK GPU OUTUT: Tesla P100-PCIE-16GB The Tesla T4 and P100 are fast and support hardware encoding. The K80 and P4 are slower. Sometimes resetting the instance in the 'runtime' tab will give you a different GPU.

How can we not update ffmpeg in colab?

[sapph1re]

Had the same issue. Figured the previous version by: apt-cache policy ffmpeg Then installed the previous one in the list by changing the apt-fast install line: ffmpeg to ffmpeg=7:3.4.6-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 It solved the issue for now.

still now working:

E: Version '7:3.4.6-0ubuntu0.18.04.1' for 'ffmpeg' was not found Package manager quit with exit code. /bin/bash: youtube-dl: command not found

Fix ffmpeg It might help someone., In the latest versions of ffmpeg you cannot use nvenc under collab GPUs, so you must install a specific version of ffmpeg. In a new code cell you must paste this and run it:

%cd /content/
!wget http://lliurex.net/bionic/pool/universe/f/ffmpeg/ffmpeg_3.4.2-2_amd64.deb
!sudo apt install ./ffmpeg_3.4.2-2_amd64.deb
!rm ./ffmpeg_3.4.2-2_amd64.deb

With this all problems must be solved.
