As far as I'm aware this is only for the cli version of ffmpeg and won't affect the threading of codecs many of which were already multithreaded.

I recently tried figuring out how to build ffmpeg with Nvidia codecs. I'm very new to ffmpeg and codec terminology. How is multithreading for the CLI different than the codecs?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago

My understanding is some parts have to be done sequentially even though the parts themselves are multithreaded, now the different parts can all be done in parallel.
