I really hope the Linux version of Handbrake can get this new NVENC support soon (along with QuickSync support).

Handbrake is not based on Gstreamer.

Handbrake is not based on Gstreamer.

I could have sworn it was, but I guess I was thinking of Handbrake's preview (which does use gstreamer). Oh well..

Arbitrary gstreamer commentary here, but it is super noticable how gstreamer1.0 applications automute whenever anything else plays audio (ex, VLC 2.0+). Its super annoying how adjusting the volume with the system keys will mute VLC, and I think its gstreamer based since Clementine-git uses Gstreamer 1.0 and has the same effect happening (any other sound mutes the app).

I looked around months ago but found nothing on it, so why not mention it in a random Gstreamer post and see if anyone else had it happen.
