livepeer_bench with -nvidia does not seem to work when ethash mining with nicehash/phoenixminer #1747

Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

There have been user reports of livepeer_bench run with the -nvidia flag not working when ethash mining with nicehash/phoenixminer on Windows.

The user was using a 2060 and driver 461.09. livepeer_bench was left hanging and only showed timestamp,session,segment,transcode_time when the miner was running. When the miner was stopped livepeer_bench continued execution.

Things to consider:

AFAIK there have only been successful tests of transcoding with ethash mining using ethminer on Linux.

Going to close this for now due to inactivity, but if requests around nicehash/phoenixminer come up we can re-open.
