This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It works best with NVIDIA drivers and with the least workarounds in RHEL type distros (officially it supports Rocky Linux).
Decoding and encoding is really limited, especially in the free version. There's details about codec support in their website.
If you pay for it, and you're already used to distros like Fedora, Rocky, RHEL it pretty much works out of the box. Only Fedora requites some tinkering. There's also tools and workarounds for distros like Arch AFAIK.
On the paid version there should be no problem with codec.
Yes, but there are limitations depending on hardware. Intel and AND don't get the best encoding and decoding performance.
