Hi, I did the setup as listed in their guide, I checked that the server was the appropriate kernel, I set as you point the Wowza and even then only shows in the logs that asks if CUDA is enabled, even to point profile of transcoder to ask Quick Sync wowza not looking, which may be happening?

Thx

Regards

Hello,

You may want to update to the latest Wowza Streaming Engine version 4.5.0.01 as this includes some improvements in the Quick Sync driver checking in Linux.

Also, you might want to ensure that QuickSync is enabled in your system bios and that your chip-set drivers have been updated to the latest version.

Best regards,

Andrew
