[x264-devel] NVENC vs x264

[Karthick Kumar]

I have read about the quality comparison of x264 and nvenc, which says
nvenc has better psnr with the following parameters.

--keyint 30 --no-scenecut --no-chroma-me --fps 30 --preset faster --ref 1
--trellis 0 --
weightp 0 --b-pyramid normal –bframe n

Since I was looking to improve the quality of h.264 encoder (currently
using x264) in my video streaming app, is it good to switch to nvenc ?

What are the  improvements/drawbacks if I move to nvenc encoder?
