A New Era Begins as the Chapter of Interlace Encoder Cards Phases Out

As many of you may already know, all Nvidia graphics cards from the Turing, Ampere, and Ada Lovelace series have discontinued support for interlaced encoding. Furthermore, discrete Intel Arc GPUs have also undergone changes that affect interlaced encoding capabilities.

These shifts in hardware functionality are driven by the manufacturers and are beyond our control. We recommend verifying with Nvidia or Intel to confirm whether your new graphics card has these limitations.

As this chapter of interlaced encoding gradually phases out, we at Etere are fully committed to supporting our customers through this transition. Rest assured, we are closely monitoring the latest developments and will continue to provide timely updates.

Etere Software Encoding: A Versatile Alternative
To help mitigate the impact of these changes, Etere offers high-performance software encoding with x264. While software encoding may not match the speed and efficiency of hardware-based solutions, it remains a reliable and flexible alternative when interlaced encoding is necessary.
