Prerequisites:

Due to CentOS 6 reaching EOL in November 2020 this slicer release requires CentOS 7 or newer.
Due to the slicer being built on CentOS 7 it picks up some new library dependencies which are not included in the base install of Ubuntu 18.04. You may need to pre-install them: sudo apt install libnl-3-200 libatomic1.
Nvidia driver 418 or later is required for HEVC 4K HDR/SDR.
As of 22061100-rc1 VOD slicer requires a CPU with AVX instruction set support.
