<p>Using Nvidia's gpu accelerated codecs to encode videos is a massive time saver, it brings my encoding times down from 2 hours to 2 minutes with pascal GPU's however the problem with the codec that I am using (<a href="https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1243687" rel="nofollow">https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1243687</a>) is that it outputs mkv or mk4 files which are all but useless as I can skip through the outputted video and youtube doesn't accept them at all.  </p>

<p>I have tried running the NVenc through a filter/wrapper to package it up as an mp4 but either I was doing something wrong or it didn't work as the audio on the outputted file was always running at a different speed than the video itself, or the other way around.</p>

<p>Does anyone have any advice or instructions by chance?  Would really appreciate it!</p>
