Changed to draft as it doesn't seem to be sufficient. Currently debugging the runner in VS Code.

Alternative route would be sending HEVC to iOS devices (has native support) and VP9 to all others. This would yield the greatest bandwidth savings and offer the best picture quality.

> If you only started to implement something today, we should definitely go for AV1, the successor. It doesn't make much sense yet, given no broad web browser support.

> Could you list a specific platform where the combination of AV1 & HEVC would not work? Web. Except iOS, where HEVC is supported.

~~I'd recommend switching to VP9 instead, broader compatibility and should be supported by NVENC as well.~~ **Edit**: doesn't seem to be implemented in ffmpeg. Weird. AV1 a possibility, or card...

> We already do use H264 NVENC and it works fine. I was just hoping to be able to support hevc_nvenc for future proofing and bandwidth constraints. HEVC/H265 is dead...

> Well unfortunately the GPU in my server cares less about licensing issues and more about encoder support, of which, AV1 is not supported. ;) It's an industry wide concern,...

> I am unfamiliar with Intel GPUs as they're relatively new to the market. I can budget for it, but that would also involve ensuring that there are Linux drives...

Also experiencing this on a RX 7600 (CPU+iGPU) + RX 580 (GPU) combo. Weirdly enough it only seems to trigger in one game of mine: Need for Speed Most Wanted...

`nvtop` has some sort mechanism to determine which application belongs to which GPU, could this be leveraged in MangoHud to identify which GPU is rendering the game?
