Re: 5, only "NVIDIA NVENC AV1 encoding support" seems to be mentioned.

Terje, my understanding is that only the Nvidia NVENC AV1 support is NEW; we already had h264 and h265 nvenc capability (and render formats).

What about Intel (Arc) AV1 QSV and AMD AMF encoders in FFmpeg?

AMF seems to require some additional (may be even closed-source/proprietary) components from amdgpu-pro ?

Thanks, Andrew, I was not able to find downloadable examples of either QSV or AMF files to test AND more importantly, I could not figure out the muxer in libavformat to create default format render files for either one.  Thus, not too sure about the CinGG compatibility at this time.
