Hi,
In the past I have used NVVideoCodec and VPI for gpu accelerated decoding and processing. What would be torchcodec's appeal here? VPI already provides zero-copy interface with pytorch.
its really fast and the performance is great, but its really unfortunate it requires torch>=2.11
Too many NVIDIA libraries are still using 2.10 or an alpha version of 2.11 that doesn't have c++ methods used by torchcodec's underlying C++ code like use_blob and a few others. I had to fall back to ffmpeg-python unfortunately
