This will make it complain about ffnvcodec instead.i'm not objecting. but if you put a error message that explains what a person needs when it errors , that might also be a good idea (and it would also only be a one or two line change). -compn
I looked into doing that, but the code handling those errors in a generic way would need quite some ugly special cases to do that.
Still, I might look into giving a better error that at some point.It being called cuda is inaccurate anyway, so renaming it to ffnvcodec is not too terrible.
So for now, I just pushed this, and will look into a more verbose error later.
