> +Since CUDA filters operate exclusively on GPU memory, frame data must sometimes be uploaded (@ref{hwupload}) to hardware surfaces associated with the appropriate CUDA device before processing, and downloaded (@ref{hwdownload}) back to normal memory afterward, if required. Whether @ref{hwupload} or @ref{hwdownload} is necessary depends on the specific workflow:
> +
> +@itemize
> +@item If the input frames are already in GPU memory (e.g., when using @code{-hwaccel cuda} or @code{-hwaccel_output_format cuda}), explicit use of @ref{hwupload} is not needed, as the data is already in the appropriate memory space.
> +@item If the input frames are in CPU memory (e.g., software-decoded frames or frames processed by CPU-based filters), it is necessary to use @ref{hwupload} to transfer the data to GPU memory for CUDA processing.
> +@item If the output of the CUDA filters needs to be further processed by software-based filters or saved in a format not supported by GPU-based encoders, @ref{hwdownload} is required to transfer the data back to CPU memory.
> +@end itemize
> +Note that @ref{hwupload} uploads data to a surface with the same layout as the software frame, so it may be necessary to add a @ref{format} filter immediately before @ref{hwupload} to ensure the input is in the correct format. Similarly, @ref{hwdownload} may not support all output formats, so an additional @ref{format} filter may need to be inserted immediately after @ref{hwdownload} in the filter graph to ensure compatibility.
