The resample_sample_fmt in the input stream is not updated after h264_cuvid decoder is initialized, due to this reconfiguration of the filter graph is triggered after the decode. During reconfiguration, Scale filter is inserted after hwupload_cuda filter and the filter configuration fails during format merging.

Why would you use such a command with hwupload instead of just using
-hwaccel cuvid to solve all these issues? Thats what its for. The
change in ffmpeg looks a bit fishy.
