Need Colab Help

[lyding]

Can we force ffmpeg to use Tesla GPU's on Colab for encoding videos? If it is possible, will it be faster than CPU encoding?

If your gpu is on the list

Look up NVenc in ffmpeg.

I can see the GPU P100 is on the list. A hint or a guide regarding the commands would be appreciated sir.

Try this link https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/nvidia-ffmpeg-transcoding-guide/?ncid=afm-chs-44270&...3DPECVU1BEF60Q. I have a geforce 1660 card. i am using that website wto use my full cuda cores. But for it it to work i believe you need NVIDIA cuda toolkit.
