      "FFmpeg log: NVDEC capabilities:"
"FFmpeg log: format supported: yes, max_mb_count: 65536"
"FFmpeg log: min_width: 48, max_width: 4096"
"FFmpeg log: min_height: 16, max_height: 4096"
"FFmpeg log: decoder->cvdl->cuvidCreateDecoder(&decoder->decoder, params) failed"
"FFmpeg log:  -> CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE: invalid argument"
"FFmpeg log: "
"FFmpeg log: Using more than 32 (39) decode surfaces might cause nvdec to fail."
"FFmpeg log: Try lowering the amount of threads. Using 16 right now."
"FFmpeg log: Failed setup for format cuda: hwaccel initialisation returned error."
"FFmpeg log: Format cuda not usable, retrying get_format() without it."
qt.multimedia.ffmpeg.hwaccel: Selected format with no conversion 0

      (building against ffmpeg-7.1.1, as provided by ubuntu)
