Running a Node.js application using nvm as a systemd service

Read this first!

Hi there! Since this post was originally written, nvm has gained some new tools, and some people have suggested alternative (and potentially better) approaches for modern systems. Make sure to have a look at the comments to this article, before following this guide!

Trickier than it seems.

This gist contains instructions on setting up FFmpeg and Libav to use VAAPI-based hardware accelerated encoding (on supported platforms) for H.264 (and H.265 on supported hardware) video formats.

Using VAAPI's hardware accelerated video encoding on Linux with Intel's hardware on FFmpeg and libav

Hello, brethren :-)

As it turns out, the current version of FFmpeg (version 3.1 released earlier today) and libav (master branch) supports full H.264 and HEVC encode in VAAPI on supported hardware that works reliably well to be termed "production-ready".

Example Makefile for creating deb/rpm packages with jordansissel/fpm
# This is an example Makefile for quick package creation
#
# It uses FPM [1] to generate simple packages.
# - If you need more features or a greater quality package, use debian
# standard tools for packaging.
# - Do not use checkinstall. Use FPM instead.

See the supported NVENC and NPP capabilities in your FFmpeg build

Quickly check for supported NVENC and NPP hardware acceleration capabilities in FFmpeg on your platform:

Depending on how you built ffmpeg, you may want to check the supported NVENC-based hardware acceleration capabilities in ffmpeg by running:

$ for i in encoders decoders filters; do
    echo $i:; ffmpeg -hide_banner -${i} | egrep -i "npp|cuvid|nvenc|cuda|nvdec"
done

Sample output (as on my testbed):
