No (NVENC) in MAGIX HEVC/AAC MP4 in 8K FUHD 4320p?

When I go to File/Render As... & select MAGIX HEVC/AAC MP4 & Internet 8K FUHD 4320p 59.94 fps, click on customize template. Encode mode is greyed out. No (NVENC) in MAGIX HEVC/AAC MP4 in 8K FUHD 4320p? I looked in Task Manager/Performance & it just uses Intel QSV (CPU). I tried it on my other PC, with an i5-11600k & 3080, & it shows the same stuff.

Vegas Pro 18, Windows 10, FTW3 3090 Ultra

That's right.
That 8K HEVC rendering is only possible with Intel QSV

@k0ldfire Hi, I have NV encoder in the Encode mode options, no idea why yours is greyed out but it's not any better

this 13 sec clip took 1min to render using NV encoder & Taskmanager says it did it 'lumpy'

Mainconcept HEVC took 51secs & the CPU was a steady full on,

I don't have Intel CPU, but tried Intel QSV... slowest of them all 1.06mins n got my CPU up to 90% at one point,

PS, FTW3 3090 Ultra Gaming, I don't know if it makes a blind bit of difference to the options in 'encode mode' or if you have this already but Studio driver is mentioned as better for Vegas than Gaming driver , GeForce Experience makes it easier to swap GPU drivers - https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/geforce-experience/

@Former user
OP uses VPro 18 and you show the possibilties in VPro 19

@j-v 👍 Ooops!, does it matter tho, is 18 & 19 that much different in this regard ?

You showed it.
This is VPro 18

So, I just bought Vegas Pro 19, and it works now. Surprise it is faster!!... Did an 8K 18sec video in 1min 24secs on NVENC, whereas the older VP18 did it in 1mins 56secs using Intel QVC. 27% faster!

and installing Studio drivers does change the Encode Mode option to NV Encoder in VP18, it is still greyed out. Did that same video in VP18 in 1m 21s
