I just tested the RPM on Leap 15.5 and can confirm that
h264_nvenc.mp4 and h265_nvenc.mp4 works fine on GTX960.<br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">550.54.14 is
"supposedly" the minimum required driver version for Linux
according to the README associated with the release. And this
is the same as what was written for the previous version. So
whatever worked before should still work. The previous
information from a forum post said that the <span

have since reread that and determined that that was November

I've did a quick test with
h64_nvenc.mp4 and h265_nvenc.mp4
