Can you tell me what's actually better with these "better" encoders? To me it seems they just use the already present fixed functions encoders in the hardware devices.

Riguya's encoders use ffmpeg libs and have almost every option working for the various gpus. Many of which are difficult to get working with an ffmpeg command line unless you know the trick. The quality for more typical 4k settings isn't as high, however. Not sure why that is. Math libs or data width, maybe?

I dunno where to start with this one. 🙄
NVENC is a hardware feature, meaning it's part of your physical Nvidia graphics chip. You can't "update" NVENC unless you buy a newer graphics card. The same NVENC settings are available to all programs (FFmpeg, etc.).
Likewise, QSV and AMF are hardware features.
Voukoder and VoukoderPro also use FFmpeg libraries. So I don't see any advantage to your pet program.
Maybe try actually using VoukoderPro?

Define "better control of the hardware encoder". Which encoder options, in particular?

NVENC options look the same. Which supports my point that the hardware features are fixed, regardless of software.

With the next release I'm leaving my hands out of FFmpeg. It won't be part of Voukoder Pro anymore. You can install any variant (with any supported encoders) you like best. I'll provide a GPL and LGPL variant to download though.
