Just wondering if there were any plans to put hardware decoding into place since that is becoming more common for QuickSync and NVENC.

Hardware decoding/encoding is certainly on our Mezzmo roadmap. We are reliant on the ffmpeg developers adding QuickSync and NVENC, and then testing the speed vs. quality results of using these hardware decoding/encoding technologies.

Update: Mezzmo v5.0 has hardware-based encoding via Intel Quick Sync. Go to the Transcoding Settings dialog to turn it on.

If the 'Use Intel Quick Sync for faster transcoding' button is disabled, then the possible reasons are:

Your CPU does not have Quick Sync features. You can check your CPU model at Intel's ARK eb site - http://ark.intel.com/
Mezzmo could not locate Intel's Quick Sync DLLs on your computer. Mezzmo needs these DLLs to communicate with your CPU to use Intel's Quick Sync features. You can download the Quick Sync DLLs by installing the Intel Media SDK. It is a free download from https://software.intel.com/en-us/media-sdk/download.
