I am trying to set-up grid for capturing OpenGl rendered screen, encoding it and streaming it on remote system.
I searched for available options and realized that Nvidia capture SDK (formerly GRID SDK) will be a good option to solve all these problems. However, it requires a Quadro GPU. Nevertheless, I bought Nvidia Quadro K-5000 and downloaded Nvidia CUDA and Nvidia capture SDK and installed both. Within Nvidia capture SDK samples, I found examples on how to achieve my goals.
While trying to to compile these samples I encountered the error that NvIFROpenGL.dll was missing. I downloaded these files manually and tried to compile it again. This time error was Can't create an instance of NvIFR. This might be caused by the downloaded DLLs and the fact that I need to use IFR instead of FBC so compile the OpenGLIFR samples).
Can someone please guide me on how to setup environment for Nvidia capture SDK (formerly GRID SDK)? What else do I need? Please don't answer to read the documentation, I have read it many times and even posted in Nvidia forums as well (all for nothing on this issue). I am stuck at this for more than a month and really frustrated (for wasting thousand dollars on a GPU and doing nothing).
Also, if there is another way to go around (an easier/better one, maybe with gstreamer/directshow?) please enlighten me on how to go about that?
