I'm not sure about this one.
Since it's just "SW", or rather CUDA based, conversion, this job could
also be done by scale_cuda, outside of some niche formats it doesn't
support yet.
Which would also allow for more consistent command lines across versions.


Although it is a software-based solution, the conversion is integrated with 
other kernels
inside the driver. In this way, it will demand fewer memory accesses and better 
Streaming
Multiprocessor (SM) utilization, leading to a improved performance and a lower 
latency
compared to the scale_cuda approach. Moreover, the proposed approach overall 
consumes
less memory since it only requires an 8-bit per channel frame as input and no 
extra 10-bit frames.

Won't this need guarded behind the NVENC_HAVE_NEW_BIT_DEPTH_API as well?
Or would this also work fine with older headers, by just setting this?

For older SDK versions, the HEVC main 10 profile would be selected, but the 
encoded bitstream
would be still 8-bits. For the sake of consistence and clarity, I will put it 
behind the
NVENC_HAVE_NEW_BIT_DEPTH_API as you suggested.

Same question as above, does this always work, even without the new bit
depth API?
If not, it also needs the #ifdef.

Same as above, it would give the wrong impression to the user. I will put it 
behind the NVENC_HAVE_NEW_BIT_DEPTH_API.
