Folks.

I have a candidate fix for PMS:

This should address:

1. Nvidia drivers 525 and above (SDK 12.0)
2. 1080p input would sometimes fail to use HW transcoding

> Google Drive file.

1. I tested the 1080p issue I found and it’s resolved.
2. Can anyone test the SDK 12.0 (525 nvidia drivers) ?

Any prompt feedback would be greatly appreciated.  
Thanks.
