FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

This gist shows you how to encode specifically to HEVC with ffmpeg's NVENC on supported hardware, with a two-pass profile and optional CUVID-based hardware-accelerated decoding.

Encoding high-quality HEVC content in a two-pass manner 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> -pass 1 \
-filter:v hwupload_cuda,scale_npp=w=1920:h=1080:format=nv12:interp_algo=lanczos,hwdownload,format=nv12 \

-c:v hevc_nvenc -profile main -preset slow -rc vbr_2pass \
