Folks.
I am finding that CUDA SDK v12.0 is a problem. (That’s Nvidia 525 drivers and above)
The 1.30.x series also introduces AV1 Hardware Decoding support for transcoding.
I have confirmed:
CUDA SDK 11.7 is good enough to HW decode AV1

Downgrade to the version I show and hold there until we get our arms around this.
This is one of those cases “Don’t upgrade just because you can” 
(we have some work to do)
I can provide AV1 sample videos to confirm it all works (HD → 4K)
