msys2 vs msys vs msysgit

MinGW doesn't provide a linux-like environment, that is MSYS(2) and/or Cygwin

Cygwin is an attempt to create a complete UNIX/POSIX environment on Windows. 
MinGW is a C/C++ compiler suite which allows you to create Windows executables - you only 
need the normal MSVC runtimes, which are part of any normal Microsoft Windows installation.

MinGW provides headers and libraries so that GCC (a compiler suite, 
not just a "unix/linux compiler") can be built and used against the Windows C runtime.

Encoding high-quality HEVC content with FFmpeg - based NVENC encoder on supported hardware:

If you've built ffmpeg as instructed here on Linux and the ffmpeg binary is in your path, you can do fast HEVC encodes as shown below, using NVIDIA's NPP's libraries to vastly speed up the process.

Now, to do a simple NVENC encode in 1080p, (that will even work for Maxwell Gen 2 (GM200x) series), start with:

ffmpeg  -i <inputfile>  \
-filter:v hwupload_cuda,scale_npp=w=1920:h=1080:format=nv12:interp_algo=lanczos,hwdownload \

-c:v hevc_nvenc -profile main -preset slow -rc vbr_hq \
