Do you have anyway to fix this issue?

[AVHWDeviceContext @ 0x7ffff3582f40] Could not initialize the CUDA driver API
[AVFilterGraph @ 0x7ffff340b4e0] Error initializing filter 'hwupload_cuda'
Error reinitializing filters!
Failed to inject frame into filter network: Unknown error occurred

Additional Information:
I use GTX 1060 on WSL on Windows 10

It would be good if we can have Windows .bat file

  • Make sure you have installed nv-codec-headers (see the beginning part of my instructions)
  • Note that latest version of ffmpeg may not work for all graphics card, for me I use version 3.4, you may want to choose another version (I think from 3.0-3.4 is good)

This issue is described here.

I don't have time at the moment to convert my script to .bat, you're free to create your own.

I've got this one almost running correctly on OSX with an Radeon Pro 560X.

I made two tweaks as suggested here.
static_params="-c:a aac -ar 48000 -c:v h264_videotoolbox -profile:v main -crf 19 -sc_threshold 0"
misc_params="-hide_banner -y -hwaccel auto -vsync 0"

Now it only breaks breaks on this parameter '-vf scale=w=${widthParam}:h=${heightParam}'.

When I remove it from the command it starts rendering but of course the resulting video is in the wrong scale.

I only run this script on Ubuntu so I'm not sure it works same in other platforms.

Thanks for your report
