The error "Failed to query nvenc max version" occurs when using FFmpeg with NVIDIA GPU acceleration (hevc_nvenc) on Linux.

Do you know how to solve this bug? Thank you very much.

The following code is the FFmpeg code I entered, along with the output content.
ffmpeg -ss 10:00 -i /www/wwwroot/pyffmpeg/videos/0/011.mp4 -t 20 -r 30 -b:v 4M -an -vcodec hevc_nvenc -y /www/wwwroot/pyffmpeg/videos/post/999.mp4

I have installed FFmpeg, NVIDIA GPU drivers, and SDK. It works fine without using GPU acceleration, but it throws an error when using GPU acceleration.
