How do I enable NVIDIA GPU support in Docker FFmpeg?

You must install the NVIDIA Container Toolkit on the host and use the --gpus all flag in your docker run command, paired with a CUDA-enabled image like jrottenberg/ffmpeg:7.1-nvidia2404.

Can I use FFmpeg with Kubernetes?

Absolutely. This skill includes Kubernetes Job manifests and Pod specifications that handle persistent volume mounts and GPU resource limits for cluster-based processing.

Does this skill support FFmpeg on Windows Docker Desktop?

Yes, it provides specific instructions for PowerShell and Git Bash, including the mandatory requirement to use backslashes for Windows file paths.

What is the smallest FFmpeg Docker image available?

For a minimal footprint, the skill recommends jrottenberg/ffmpeg:7.1-alpine320 (approx. 100MB) or mwader/static-ffmpeg for a statically compiled binary.
