Description
Summary of the bug:
When I use the nvidia NVENC encoder in a recently-compiled ffmpeg (NV headers copied from https://git.videolan.org/git/ffmpeg/nv-codec-headers.git), like this
ffmpeg.exe -hide_banner -v verbose -strict -1 -init_hw_device opencl=ocl:1.0 -filter_hw_device ocl -threads 0 -i "G:\test\test01.mp3.MP4.mp4" -threads 0 -sws_flags lanczos+accurate_rnd+full_chroma_int+full_chroma_inp -filter_complex "[0:v]yadif=0:0:0,hwupload,unsharp_opencl=lx=3:ly=3:la=0.5:cx=3:cy=3:ca=0.5,hwdownload" -c:v hevc_nvenc -pix_fmt yuv420p -profile:v main -level 5.1 -preset slow -rc vbr_hq -cq 26 -rc-lookahead 32 -spatial_aq 1 -color_range tv -colorspace bt470bg -c:a libfdk_aac -cutoff 18000 -ab 384k -ar 48000 -threads 0 -movflags +faststart -y "G:\test\test01.mp3.MP4.h265.mp4"
it says this

which seems to indicate ffmpeg is using Nvenc version 8.1 ?
The latest driver "Nvidia Version 391.24 WHQL" Release Notes says
Software Module Versions
- nView - 148.92
- HD Audio Driver - 1.3.36.6
- NVIDIA PhysX System Software - 9.17.0524
- GeForce Experience - 3.13.1.30
- CUDA - 9.1
which seems to imply that support for Nvenc version 9.1 exists ?
What changes need to be made in order for 9.1 to be built into ffmpeg and/or invoked on the commandline ?
Thank you.

OK, although the readme from that site says:
FFmpeg version of headers required to interface with Nvidias codec APIs.
Corresponds to Video Codec SDK version 8.0.14.
Minimum required driver versions:
Linux: 378.13 or newer
Windows: 378.66 or newer
which is an older version of the sdk. I'd hoped there was an official repository somewhere.

EEk, so it is. Sorry.
I've re-joined nvidia site and will check it there form time to time.
Thank you.
NVENC is not CUDA, and FFmpeg will automatically use the version the driver reports. There is nothing that needs doing anytime NVIDIA releases a new driver.
