First of all this is the wrong thread, please post in the Nvidia Driver thread.

 

Anyways, you are trying to convert a HEVC movie but the GT730 doesn't support HEVC (h.265).

Have you already looked at the CPU utilization?

 

Please try to convert a h.264 file instead with that card and it should display that it is transcoding.

Also keep in mind that you can install the GPU Statistics plugin from @b3rs3rk to see the utilization on the Unraid Dashboard.

 

One thing do you use 'watch nvidia-smi' or simply 'nvidia-smi'?
