how nvdec manages with 2 or more devices?
Hi. I need to decode 7 FULL HD/60fps pipelines. In my first attempt i used one 2060 SUPER and it turns out that there is no enough power to decode 7 pipelines, it worked just with 6. So i added second 2060 SUPER to my machine. There is my current nvidia-smi:
So i tried to decode with new configuration but already at 5 pipelines decode started to delay. This is nvidia-smi when i decode 5 pipelines:
But it’s very strange because when i used just one graphic cadr it was utilized at 88% percents when i decoded 6 pipelines. And what is more strange it’s what they do during decode. One of them just decode something (look below) and second just copying something…
It seems to me that it happends due to incorrect device managment in nvdec. I want to split pipelines between two GPUs, but it still doing decode using just one of them. Is there any way to set device for nvdec?
