Video writer HW encode?

Hi I am trying to encode my cameras recording into h264 (h264 pass through is not available as my cameras use a h265 stream). I have hardware decoding enabled for the cameras input, but I can't seem to figure out how to enable hardware encoding to save the stream?

How can I leverage HW acceleration to encode my streams into h264. I am using VAAPI to decode. Can I switch the video writer with any other? Any advice?

Thanks!

you can't at this time. You can use passthrough on the h265 though. Just choose mjpeg as the viewing codec if your browser can't handle h265.
