Kdenlive doesn't use GPU for rendering despite the hardware accelerated profile is chosen
It only uses all the RAM and neither the CPU for so much. And render is slow as ass

GPU is GTX 1660 Super and I'm with Bazzite GNOME

did some quick testing with both h264 and av1, it's using my GPU here, not much though
CPU low usage
using h264 software only, now hw encode is 0%
both very slow anyway
it seems software related. I even tried with native version in an Arch box, didn't work
yeah most likely
HandBrake, OBS and GPU Screen Recorder are totally fine
I have never used Kdenlive with other GPU vendors or not without crashing on Wayland so I'm not sure if this was expected behavior or not
I edited some videos on it some weeks ago and I thought it was fine, just slow
