The Eye-contact NIM is compatible with professional and consumer GPUs that have Tensor cores and are based on the following NVIDIA architectures: Blackwell, Ada, Ampere, and Turing. The RTX-based GPUs are also supported.

The Eye Contact NIM uses NVENC/NVDEC hardware acceleration for video encoding and decoding.

  • GPUs without NVENC/NVDEC hardware support are not supported, including A100, H100, and B100 products.

  • Some GPUs support only a limited number of concurrent NVENC sessions, which means the NIM can process only that same number of concurrent inputs on those GPUs.

  • Some GPUs support only certain YUV formats in H.264 reading and writing.

For details, refer to the Video Encode and Decode GPU Support Matrix.
