Did you try Beta 3 that adds support?

See the breaking changes section from the develop branch readme.

Glad to hear!

Looks pretty close to the readme (I only tested QSV, don't have nvidia or amd hardware to test with). Can you please verify, and advise on changes I should make to the readme if incorrect?

I swear handbrake has h264/h265nvec for gpu encoding.

On linux I switch to vaapi

BETA DOWNLOAD

https://github.com/ptr727/PlexCleaner/releases/download/3.0.35-gcfbd0d5385/PlexCleaner.7z

My Code to attempt execution stable release works fine beta throws error.

PlexCleaner.cmd

@echo off & setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion

set media_path_TV="\\Con-NAS\MEDIA-SERVER\TV Shows"

set root_path="%~dp0"

"%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner" --settingsfile "%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner.json" defaultsettings
"%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner" --settingsfile "%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner.json" --logfile "%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner.log" process --mediafiles %media_path_TV%

pause

exit

ERROR

'--settingsfile' was not matched. Did you mean one of the following?
--settingsfile
Option '--settingsfile' is required.
Unrecognized command or argument '--settingsfile'.
Unrecognized command or argument 'C:\Users\Conor\Desktop\win-x64\PlexCleaner.json'.

Stable release works fine but obviously no GPU encoding support :(

STABLE DOWNLOAD

Ok i got it working no idea why this matters i am sure you will know @ptr727

But this is the solution.

PlexCleaner.cmd

@echo off & setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion

set media_path_TV="\\Con-NAS\MEDIA-SERVER\TV Shows"

set root_path="%~dp0"

"%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner" defaultsettings --settingsfile "%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner.json"
"%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner" process --settingsfile "%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner.json" --logfile "%root_path:"=%win-x64\PlexCleaner.log" --mediafiles %media_path_TV%

pause

exit

These need to be ordered first in the que before any other vars get called.

defaultsettings
process

After plexcleaner.exe in command line for some reason stable release does not care on the order of these variables.

@ptr727

This was my changes to your defaultsettings in beta to get GPU encoding to work on a NVIDIA GPU.

So far works flawlessly for me :) I will leave it in this post for anyone who wants to use it.

@ptr727 Ofcourse, Thanks for a fantastic tool!

#139 (comment)

So in my comment above i put h264 and h265 for Windows NVIDIA GPU's

Now with NVIDIA be it linux mac windows not any issues i have found.

I have put VAAPI for linux above to specific for AMD on Linux.

I will do a AMD WINDOWS GPU config shortly the only issue i have found so far in relation to AMD GPU's is that on ffmpeg and the gpu side it will be fine. But HandBrake does not seem to supply documentation about AMD GPU's this could be the bottleneck that still consumes CPU.

I will give AMD more looking into and provide a config for Windows users.

AMD ENCODER WINDOWS :

Windows:

h264_amf
hevc_amf

Linux:

h264_vaapi
hevc_vaapi

AMD GPU HANDBRAKE CLI encoder settings for Windows ?

Need to find some documentation on this.

MKVTool

MkvMerge

--disable-track-statistics-tags --no-global-tags --no-track-tags --no-attachments --no-buttons --normalize-language-ietf extlang --output

Theres a few i am looking at if they have any GPU documentation still.

Conclusion

NVIDIA no problems at all h264 and h265 is perfect even for handbrake.

AMD is part way there just lacking in the handbrake config.

Implemented in v3.
