Use when turning a Jetson encoder use case into one surface-neutral recipe with native Video Codec SDK and PyNvVideoCodec projections.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Jetson Video Recipe Create one deterministic `nvcodec-recipe` schema 2.0 document. Recipe work is off-target and media-free: it does not probe, install, encode, decode, or claim support, quality, or performance. ## Boundaries - For a request solely about PSNR, SSIM, or another objective quality metric, say that a separately authorized quality workflow is required and stop. - Resolve a supplied CQ plus average or maximum bitrate conflict first. Return `input_required`, ask only which one to keep, and stop; do not reinterpret a bitrate as a cap or emit a recipe. - An unqualified “low latency” does not select a use case. Ask whether it means conferencing, live streaming, or another contract, return `input_required`, and stop without emitting a recipe. - Preserve every explicit control. If one surface cannot express it, publish a projection loss; never silently discard or weaken it. ## Workflow 1. Collect use case, codec, positive integer width/height/fps, input format, GPU, and any explicit profile, preset, tuning, rate-control, bitrate, GOP, B-frame, lookahead, AQ, multipass, or buffering controls. `frame_count` is …

How to install
mdr add nvidia/skills/jetson-video-recipe@sha256:6e795b9e9e4c444bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.9bb5a39, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
