Hi Timo,

I saw the status of 0x0A if header file /usr/include/nvEncodeAPI.h
perhaps the memory alloc is large?

 /* 1MB is large enough to hold most output frames. NVENC increases this
automaticaly if it's not enough. */
        allocOut.size = 1024 * 1024;

        allocOut.memoryHeap = NV_ENC_MEMORY_HEAP_SYSMEM_CACHED;


    /**
     * This indicates that the API call failed because it was unable to
allocate
     * enough memory to perform the requested operation.
     */
    NV_ENC_ERR_OUT_OF_MEMORY,
