[RESOLVED] Multiple GPU for video encoding

Post by barbatrukko »

Hi,
I am a VERY satisfied user of your DGDecNV.
I have a Motherboard ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 and a Nvidia GTX275. I would like to buy a new video card GTX660 (or similar).
If I keep even the old GTX275 and leave both on the motherboard, your libraries will exploit the computing power of both GPU?

Best regards

No, only one can be used at a time. But you can choose which one.

And 2 instance of DGDecNV can use 2 different GPU?
If yes, I think MAYBE is possible in index util, but how to tell do DLL at encoding time?

Best regards?

Don't know, never tried it. The GPU is specified in the INI file, so you'd have to duplicate the install directory at least.

then i can makte this:
1) make 2 folder with 2 copy of DGindexNV content (exe, dll, licence, etc)
2) change the ini file so i can have folder1 -> VGA1, folder2 -> VGA2
3) when i do multiple encoding i can select in avs script, DLL in folder 1 for one encoding and dll from folder2 for another encoding.
Then if i start 2 parallel encoding i could have one encoding (file output1) rendered by vga1 and file output2 rendered by vga2.

mmhh sounds good.. :D
