Nvidia NVDEC (formerly known as NVCUVID [1]) is a feature in its graphics cards that performs video decoding, offloading this compute-intensive task from the CPU. [2] NVDEC is a successor of PureVideo and is available in Kepler and later NVIDIA GPUs. It is accompanied by NVENC for video encoding in Nvidia's Video Codec SDK. [2]
The GeForce 16 series is a series of graphics processing units (GPUs) developed by Nvidia, based on the Turing microarchitecture, announced in February 2019. [5] The 16 series, commercialized within the same timeframe as the 20 series, aims to cover the entry-level to mid-range market, not addressed by the latter.
Community-created, free and open-source drivers exist as an alternative to the drivers released by Nvidia. Open-source drivers are developed primarily for Linux, however there may be ports to other operating systems. The most prominent alternative driver is the reverse-engineered free and open-source nouveau graphics device driver.
Model – The marketing name for the processor, assigned by Nvidia. Launch – Date of release for the processor. Code name – The internal engineering codename for the processor (typically designated by an NVXY name and later GXY where X is the series number and Y is the schedule of the project for that generation).
The source code is available in the Nvidia Linux driver downloads on systems that support nvidia-uvm.ko. In May 2022 Nvidia Announced a new initiative and policy to open source its GPU Loadable Kernel Modules with dual GPL/MIT license, but only new models at alpha quality. But said "These changes are for the kernel modules, while the user-mode ...
The tenth generation of PureVideo HD, introduced with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, RTX 2080, RTX 2070, RTX 2060, GTX 1660 Ti, GTX 1660 & GTX 1650, a Turing (microarchitecture) GPU, adds full hardware-decoding for three additional HEVC Version 2 profiles (Main 4:4:4, Main 4:4:4 10 and Main 4:4:4 12) to the GPU's video-engine.
Nvidia NVENC (short for Nvidia Encoder) [1] is a feature in Nvidia graphics cards that performs video encoding, offloading this compute-intensive task from the CPU to a dedicated part of the GPU. It was introduced with the Kepler -based GeForce 600 series in March 2012 (GT 610, GT620 and GT630 is Fermi Architecture).
On January 15, 2019, Nvidia released the GeForce RTX 2060 (TU106), which includes full fixed function HEVC Main 4:4:4 12 hardware decoder. On February 22, 2019, Nvidia released the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti (TU116), which includes full fixed function HEVC Main 4:4:4 12 hardware decoder.
