I use this excellent software for HDR to SDR encoding.
In the 'Misc' tab I click on 'VPP Colorspace' and then I select 'HDR10 to SDR' and then select 'Reinhard' (and use the default Contrast value of 0.50). I find it produces excellent SDR videos with accurate colors.
Also in the 'Misc' tab, I select Colormatrix: bt709, Transfer: bt709, Colorprim: bt709, Chromaloc: blank, Lookahead: 32.
In the 'Video' tab, my selections are - Codec: HEVC, Profile: Auto, Resolution: Keep Original, Frame Rate: Keep Original, Bit depth: 10, Tier: High, Level: Auto, Multipass: 2-pass full, Quality: P5 (highest is P7 but doubles the time to complete on my GPU), Bitrate mode: Variable, Bitrate kbps: 50000, Max Bitrate kbps: 100000.
In the 'Audio', 'Chapters' and 'Subtitles' tabs, I select 'Copy' which of course copies those items from the HDR .mkv input file to the SDR .mkv output file.
In File > Settings, I select 'Save last profile used' to auto save all my current settings as default so they are ready when next opening CudaCoder. Also, in File > Save Profile, I have saved profiles with different settings using a name I choose.
I would recommend to use Reinhard with its default value of Contrast=0.50 (the Hable option's default values produce a video image which for me is a bit too dark unless you change the d value to d=0.1, and the Mobius option's default value of Transition=0.30 produces a video image which for me is a bit too bright unless you change the Transition value to 0.20 or to 0.10).
Many thanks to the author for this brilliant GUI for rigaya's excellent NVEnc.

Hello and congrats for this app which is one of the best i use.
I don't understand why somegraphics cards from NVidia are not in the list of the developper. I have a GTX 1050 Ti which is full OK with Cuda.NVenc and it's not in the list; So the software works like a charm; Really fast and great result finally.
It would be great to have DTS converter option also.
So i don't change, this software is one of the best...

CudaCoder is a easy to use gui for nvenc with basic features. For a fast transcode it is very good, but some features does not work perfect. The average bitrate 4.000 kbit/s for video results in files with around 8.000 kbit/s. Strange.
The idea and usage of the gui is good, but it needs some further time to get a very good gui.

Converted 8 HEVC animes to H264 and the quality was excellent. The conversion speed made me amazed.
