    <div class="sphx-glr-thumbcontainer" tooltip="TorchCodec can use supported Nvidia hardware (see support matrix here) to speed-up video decoding. This is called &quot;CUDA Decoding&quot; and it uses Nvidia&#x27;s NVDEC hardware decoder and CUDA kernels to respectively decompress and convert to RGB. CUDA Decoding can be faster than CPU Decoding for the actual decoding step and also for subsequent transform steps like scaling, cropping or rotating. This is because the decode step leaves the decoded tensor in GPU memory so the GPU doesn&#x27;t have to fetch from main memory before running the transform steps. Encoded packets are often much smaller than decoded frames so CUDA decoding also uses less PCI-e bandwidth.">

    <div class="sphx-glr-thumbcontainer" tooltip="In this example, we will show how to decode streaming data. That is, when files do not reside locally, we will show how to only download the data segments that are needed to decode the frames you care about. We accomplish this capability with Python file-like objects. Our example uses a video file, so we use the VideoDecoder class to decode it. But all of the lessons here also apply to audio files and the AudioDecoder class as well.">
