Hello,
We are in the process of upgrading the Wowza Streaming Engine installation to 4.2.0, the GPU based transcoding is not working with 4.2.0, this use to work with 4.1.2
Here are the details :
4.1.2:
INFO server comment - JNI:TranscoderSession.isCUDAAvailable[_defaultVHost_:live/_definst_/anupam]: NVidia NVENC hardware acceleration is available
