Hello All, I'm taking the step to building a dedicated streaming build. I have both the 5800x3D and the 10900KF lying around, which I'm going to use to build with. Is anyone able to assist in giving me a suggestion as to which one to use: Which one has better encoding performance? Which one would be better at processing quality? Any advice about the CPUs will be appreciated massively. Please note, this machine will solely be a streaming PC. thank you in advance. -
Hello, so i know there is a similar post but with some differences on my specs. I'm thinking of buying the rx 6700xt for gaming and streaming on Twitch but i hear a lot of people say no because of the encoding that has problems with Twitch. Note that i cannot stream on 6000 bitrate because of my internet connection (even though i have 10mbps upload speed my bandwidth doesn't reach this mbps idk why) Do you think it's gonna be a good idea buying this one or should i go for a 3060 12GB? I know the performance is worse than the 6700xt but in terms of streaming i can go a bit lower on graphics since i dont play this much of a demanding games. Or you think going on lower GB of VRAM for the 4060 8GB is another solution?

Hello, this is my first post, I would like to get help in a built used for Storage/NAS/Transcoding Media files: CPU: Threadripper PRO 5995WX Motherboard: Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II RAM: 8x32GB 3200 DDR4 GPU: 2xRTX4090 OS: Linux OS NVMe: 2x2TB (Maybe Samsung 980PRO not sure yet) to be in Raid1 for redundancy. Media Pool Drives: 100TB (10x10TB HDD enterprise for NAS level) to be configured in Raid 5 for data protection. Extra NVMe or SATA SSD: 2x1TB to be used as cache acceleration (read/write) for all the HDD above. Extra SATA SSD: 2x1TB to be used as cache for general purpose/temp workflow (not associated with any other storage - free use storage). Case: I've found a rackmount case that is good for the build and can host all of the mentioned drives. Network: I will be adding network card maybe Broadcom with 2x10Gb/s ethernet ports. Questions: 1- What kind of Raid/Storage controller would be good for this build? Single Controller or multiple ones? 2- Based on the controller, how do I connect the storage? buy a disk shelf? what is a good choice of that? 3- how do I connect that storage shelf to the server? I am asking because I've read that it is not a good idea to run raid on the motherboard for critical workflow, plus the motherboard does not has enough ports to support all the media. Plus, I would like to maintain the option of future expandability for the storage. -
When AV1 encoding support was released on OBS Studio, I wanted to try it out. However, I'm having trouble importing the encoded clips into Adobe Premiere Pro. Does Adobe Premiere Pro support AV1? The error is detailed below: Here are my OBS encoder settings: I read online that I may have to use a third party app to convert the video clips, but I was wondering if there was any other way.

I am trying to decide between buying a 3060 or a 3070 (when they are in stock) and I wanted to know if there were any differences between the encoding performance on these cards. I know that they both have a dedicated chip but is it the same one and do they perform the same?

Hello everyone, My cpu is 11800H and under handbrake the faster the encoding mode ( medium, slow) the lower my cpu goes under load. In slow preset my cpu load hovers around 80 and in medium it won't go higher than 60. And one particular thing I noticed is that when the cpu load is low cpu frq constantly jumps between highest point and lowest. Can it be the results of a ram bottleneck? I have 32GB of 2666mhz dual channel micron E die memory. (It's r1x8) I know there isn't but my info is years old so I'll ask: Is there any test that can show if a ram is the bottleneck or not?

Hi I wanted to make a filmproject but noticed that premiere pro doesnt handle .mov files right. Is there any way in which I can convert the .mov files into mp4?

I was wondering if, while running a game via a main GPU, can a second graphics card be used to handle the live video encoding? In my mind; this is not possible as the video frames are processed on the main GPU and so you must either use the included encoder or capture the display signals w/ capture card. I figure though that I don’t understand how the live encoding and I am just plain wrong. The idea that I could have the CPU do encoding instead too, really makes me think I am incorrect. I would be quite happy to be wrong and learn that I could have a secondary graph is card just to handle the encoding, specifically in AV1. Of course I’d have to run my main graphics card in only x8 instead of x16, but maybe that is a reasonable trade of depending on the specific circumstances?

Hello All, This is my first post. I have quite a niche use case for encoding so I will try to keep this clear. I regularly process time lapse AVI files that average 11minutes long (timeline). I am looking to speed up my processing time, whilst finding the components that offer the best value for money. I am unable to compromise the AVI container at the moment and change to MP4 or anything else. Currently, I use hardware acceleration to encode my video files. I need help understanding how to perform GPU encoding and how it is different/better than CPU encoding for my use case. Here is a list describing my compression rig so far: CPU: I7-9700 GPU: Nvidia Quadro T1000 (no NVENC encoder present) Current compression settings: (keep fixed if possible) Software: movavi Video converter - hardware accelerated (CPU performing encoding, aided by the GPU) File size's range: 0.5-4gb Codec: h.264 KBPS (bitrate): 2000 FPS: 30 Resolution: 720p Container: AVI > AVI. (does not change) Output file size: 168mb My research so far indicated that if I continue to use the CPU method, I will be able to cut my processing time in half by upgrading to the Ryzen 9 5950x. Further research showed that on-die hardware encoders (NVENC, Quick Sync, VCE) will be able to process the files even faster but may lead to increased file sizes due to the lack of B-frames. Question time: 1) What batch video encoders are capable of maintaining the AVI format and also utilising ON-Die GPU Encoders? The software will prioritise using the GPU instead of the CPU (current). 2) If I need plugins, what may those be? 3) Am I indeed better off with a GPU at all, or should I proceed as I am and purchase a beefier CPU? 4) What Video encoders/GPUs will offer the best value for money? 5) Are there any articles that indicate how much better a GPU encoder would perform vs a 5950x for encoding? I am a relative newbie when it comes to this so any help is welcomed. TIA to you all, I look forward to hearing from you! -
Running an Ryzen 7 5700G and an AMD Rx6600 but some of my OBS plugins and scenes can be very demanding on system resources.. i.e just using the Background Remover w/ Chroma filters for my webcam can snag 10-15% more cpu usage alone. I was looking at adding a Radeon Firepro V3800 just to handle encoding... Is it even a possibility or would I be looking at further issues... its a single gaming pc and what i really need is a dedicated encoding card to free up the cpu and gfx card to focus on gaming... Thoughts and suggestions please

Recently I haven't been able to use the VAAPI encoder for recording in OBS because it just performs awfully. Looking at radeontop it looks like it's completely maxing out my GPU if I try to render anything above 1600x900. My GPU is an AMD Radeon R9 380, something perfectly capable of rendering something as simple as a screen capture at 1080p60 2500Kbps CBR. This isn't a hardware error (at least I don't think it is) as I can record/stream perfectly fine on Windows 10. I've tried multiple distros (including non-bleeding edge distros) and they all net the same result. I've tried the GStreamer VAAPI plugin for OBS and it's better but it's still unusable. I've tried to get the AMF encoder working but I'm having some Vulkan issues with it that stops it from working. I'd like to reiterate that this is only a recent issue. I used to be able to record perfectly fine with VAAPI like half a year ago. I've looked at the logs and people in the OBS Discord have also looked at the logs and nothing shows up in them. I've tried the latest version of OBS and version 27.2 of OBS.

Hey guys, so I've been doing H264 encoding for a few days now. But I want to do H265 from now. My sources are usually Remux or very large sized BluRays. So I tried to do a H265 cpu encode (Remux source) using Very Slow preset, RF 22 & 2 Pass. So 1st pass went good, average 30 FPS. 2nd pass was terrible. Average 2 FPS. I guess the problem was with the Advance Option. You see when I do H264 encode I use this [trellis=0:me=umh:analyse=all:deblock=-3,-3:mbtree=0:psy-rd=1.0,0.00::aq-mode=3:aq-strength=1.0:ref=8388608/(resolution)] preset in advance option. It boosts my encode speed a lot. Without this I get only 10 FPS on Placebo H264 & with it I get around 30 FPS. So I'm looking for an advance option like that for H265, 2 Pass, Slow/Slower/Very Slow Preset. I'll be making 1080p BluRays. My RIG incase if you need: Cpu- Ryzen 7 3700X Ram- G.Skill TridentZ 16GB 3200MHz GPU- AMD RX 5700 XT SSD- Samsung NVMe 970 EVO Plus

I own an Acer Switch 3 and since I occassionally edit gaming videos, I was wondering wether I could use it for traveling edits. I am aware it's nowhere near being a powerhouse, but as long as Vegas Pro 17 or Adobe premiere can run sufficiently (even with low quality preview) I'm ok with it. Question is, the CPU in this thing is a Pentium N4200 (4C/4T 1,1 to 2,5 GHz) without any cpu instruction set extentions. Are they required for video encoding, rendering and etc or not? P.S. Actually it has some extentions but apparently not everything there is. Idk, I'm not very instruction set savvy. -
In my system, i have a ryzen 5 2600 with a gtx 1660. I've been hearing that the ryzen 5 2600 is really good for streaming, but i dont know if i should choose x264 encoding or NVENC (explain why please) also, is it possible to stream with 5mbps upload on twitch, if so, what are the best setting in obs for maintaining a good quality stream -
Hello, I got myself a ryzen 9 3950x for streaming however when i go to stream on the highest presets for cpu i get over 50% of my rendered frames skipped due to encoding lag. When using placebo, very slow or slower presets i get these issues however if i drop it down to the slow preset the issue seems to stop and everything works fine. The cpu isn't hitting 100% usage so i'm quite confused to how or why it's skipping frames when it has so many more resouces available to use.

I know this topic isn't that popular like game benchmarks, but I'm kinda curious about streaming for a long time from technical perspective and I didn't found enough information about second pc for encoding stream in OBS. Like, I understand most of videoediting software are relying on a core count and core clocks, but it's not that simple as it might be. I know that streaming on single setup can cause frame drops, which is especially important for players with high refresh rate games. For example. I have a friend that have 2nd pc with ryzen 7 1700x for this purpose. He is streaming in 900p60 6000kb/s with a medium encoding preset on a Twitch via OBS Studio. As I understand CPU isn't fully loaded while streaming, so the quality presets might rely on architectural features and core clock speeds. Also, some video related programms like the Adobe Premier might have a limit for core utilising. I really interested in best of the best and best bang for a buck options for performance / price. For example, if OBS couldn't utilise all 32 threads of 3950x, it's still might be a better option without SMT (AMD hypertreading) on high clock speeds. Or if benefits from intel architecture might be higher with lower count of cores. Does anyone have good tests which is pretty recent? UPD: He switched from 1700x to 2700

Hi, I am wondering why Hardware encoding is greyed out for when i want to export. I have it on for project settings, but also want it for exporting. Is it because I have an AMD chip?? Specs: AMD Ryzen 5 3600x at 4.10Ghz, 16gb or ddr4 3200mhz ram, RTX 2070, an nvme ssd, and the Tuf B450 Plus gaming Motherboard. Let me know if you guys know anything. Thanks Photos below:

Hello guys, my rig are intel core i7 3770k at 4.2ghz antec kuhler 920 evga gtx 680 2gb asus vs247 24 'inch 60hz 2 * 4 gb corsair vengeance azrock z77 extreme 3 seasonic 850 watt bronze cooler master haf x full tower 120 gb kingstone ssd 1 tb western digital hdd when HEVC encoding my cpu temps reach 96c, sure i set my antec kuhler 920 fan settings to extreme gets noticably noisy idle temps are 35c maximum i haven't changed thermal paste ever since i bought and installed my antec kuhler 4 years ago are those temps normal? what are the normal temps when HEVC encoding?? should i change my thermal paste?? thanks in advance -
My handbreak is currently encoding a file, I turned on a program where i can check temps, I know encoding puts 100% load on processor but I'm seeing ~100-104 °C -no below. I'm using 3570K with stock cooler, I haven't cleaned dust in a while but I was wondering if it was even safe for me to run these temps and this type of load for half an hour on an old-ish processor

Hi everyone, I've just noticed a weird thing while rendering some videos in Premiere Pro. CPU utilisation is only about 50%. Now don't get me wrong, the speed is okay, I'm just wondering if there could be some serious bottleneck in my system... I put a fair amount of effects on the video, and tried both CUDA accelerated and software only (CPU only) rendering/encoding. CUDA-assisted rendering obviously made things a bit faster. Strangely enough, when CUDA is off, and it's CPU only, the CPU usage doesn't go any further up, it's about 45-55%. Any thoughts on this? I have two suspects, but I'd like to hear a couple of thoughts first. You can see (hopefully) every relevant info on the attached screenshot. ps. There aren't any other cpu-intensive processes running in the background. Thanks My specs: i7 6700 cpu 16gb 3000mhz ram geforce gtx 1070 250gb sata3 ssd

Not sure where to post it and not sure why there are no answers on google nor youtubers nor annyone using the VP9 codec the I7 7700K IGPU Supposedly can accelerate. Last time i posted it came as google's n1 result when searching i7 7700k VP9 but the thread just got alot of views and no replies what so ever. All the intel slides about its 4K VP9 10 Bit decoder and VP9 8 Bit Encoder but so far none of this is seen anywhere as far as i know......, how long has this CPU been out now? i get the accelerated H264 and H265 up but i find no software that can use the VP9 it provides, just pure CPU VP9 Encoding which is not what i need. Is the software non existent at this point and is coming up later? or is there applications that uses it? dont tell me i got ripped off by intel and their VP9 Decoding/Encoding slides.

Hey there. Long time lurker of the LTT YT Channel and I need some help with a PC decision that I need to make. I'm usually the guy that my circle ask for advice, but I'm coming up dry on this one.... My laptop is fine for now (ASUS G750JZ : i7, 32Gb Ram, dual SSD and GTX880M) It plays most of the current games at the highest settings with the occasional exception where I have to kneecap it down to just in textures and distance. IDuring some quality testing for Twitch streaming over the weekend I saw that X.264 OBS encoding at stream bitrates was much better quality than NVENC at a cost of CPU, but NVENC was way ahead at higher bitrates with little to no CPU or GPU load. No surprises there. So I'm wanting to switch to using H.264 encoding, but to do this I really need an external PC to to the encoding part. If I turn x.264 encoding up to medium on my laptop then I start to get game stutter and lower settings are just too noisy. So I set up NGinx on my wheezy little fileserver which has a dual core Intel G3240 (3.1Ghz) and it recorded ok at "Very Fast" with CPU around 90-99% playing TheHunter: Call Of the Wild. The Laptop is using NVENC to downscale (Lanczos) to 720p and pump it over the LAN @27648mb/s to the fileserver to re-encode at 2765mb/s. It looked ok, but when I was streaming it would occasionally lag with that extra bit of processing tipping it over the edge, so I had to drop it to "SuperFast" ... TL/DR ... So, I'm looking to get a used mini(tiny) PC to do my H.264 encoding just for twitch streaming. I've seen 2 Lenovo Tiny PC's that I'm interested in, but I don't know which would be better for X.264 encoding at the max quality setting. a) newer - i3-6100T 3.20GHz (8Gb DDR4 2133 SoDIMM) b) older - i5-4590T 2GHz 4th (8Gb unknown) Both with SSD I would have assumed the i5 would be better as it can turbo up to 3GHz (I think), but I saw a YT video which benchmarked Adobe Premiere rendering much faster on the i3. (v=YVj8hGo3spQ?t=1m48s) Which is what's thrown me for a loop Your help and advise is welcome W. -
Hi all, I have gone through 2 Gigabyte x99-UD4 boards in two years. I end up getting major mouse lag/stuttering, and I don’t overclock. What x99 motherboard do you recommend for me? I do a lot of video encoding, rendering, and some gaming. I’m disabled and must use an on-screen keyboard (Hot Virtual Keyboard) and a SmartNav4:AT mouse. My system: Win 10 Pro, i7-5960X, Samsung 960 EVO M.2 NVMe, G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB, 1 Zotac GTX 1080 card, Antec 750W power supply. I also have 5 hot swappable IDE hard drive bays. I don’t really want to part with my i7-5960X, but should I go with a different CPU and chipset? I have tried so many things to fix this mouse lag/stuttering. I can not use any web browser and my office programs are unusable. I have mouse leg all the time but way worse with certain programs. I’ve tried a few different bios versions. Old drivers/new drivers, etc. Disabling Cortana and removing Realtek drivers helped slightly. I have changed the win 10 mouse settings. I’ve tried different network settings. I now barely have any programs on my computer right now and still lag. I have tried 2 different types ram, 2 different M.2 SSD’S, 2 Video cards, and tested my power supply. This leaves my CPU and motherboard in question. CPU could be throttling? Motherboard could have faulty software/bois? Could voltages be fluctuating on the motherboard? A USB 3 issue? Thanks, Chuck -
I was looking to build a second PC for dedicated streaming. As in all it will do is encode and upload to Twitch, and edit videos. It occurred to me that my current set up would be able to handle the role as a dedicated Streaming PC if I instead make the new PC an i5 Skylake gaming rig, and just transfer my new GTX 1070 to that and put my old GTX 780 into the Streaming PC. So my question really boils down to is it better to use my old i7-4770k set up as a dedicated Streaming PC and build a new i5 Skylake gaming rig *or* use my current i7-4770k rig for gaming and build a new dedicated Streaming PC (i7-6700K or i7-5280k)?
