[FFmpeg-user] Multiple FFMpeg-Cuda-HLS-Transcoding Instances -> Deadlock Behavior

Hello,

i'm having a hard time rendering multiple hls instances with nvidia
gear. The details are in the forum post. Here is a little summary.
Everytime without any exception, when i'm running multiple instances of
ffmpeg with cuda support, all instrances until one instance are stopping
to work. It looks like a deadlock. Because this behavior isn't happening
when i'm using libx264, i asked nvidia - how to fix it. I made a youtube
video for you guys to see whats happening.

I tried every new nvidia driver and the beavior was the same. Then i
build ffmpeg again with gcc 8, still the same behavior. I will try to
rebuild ffmpeg with gcc 7.

How did i build ffmpeg:


./configure --enable-libx264 --enable-cuvid --enable-gpl --enable-libnpp
--enable-cuda --disable-cuda-sdk --enable-nonfree
--extra-cflags=-I/usr/local/cuda-10.2/include
--extra-ldflags=-L/usr/local/cuda-10.2/lib64 && make -j 8


How i'm executing ffmpeg:


exec $FFMPEG_PATH

Please help me to fix this behavior.
