Kyno and Transcoding

[thebagsman]

At my company we use Kyno to navigate, manage, and transcode our media.  In order to expedite the transcoding process in particular I replaced my 9900K based machine with a 3950X machine.  However I have not noticed a significant increase in performance.  I haven't been able to find much information about how Kyno utilizes hardware, even their forums weren't helpful.  Is anyone here familiar with it?

What codecs are you transcoding to and from?

 

What usage do you see on task manager?

99% of our transcodes are from either .braw or .r3d into prores 422 proxy.  Task manager typically shows less than 20% usage during this process.

What gpu usage do you see? Im pretty sure those can be decoded on gpus.

I've considered the GPU to be part of the problem, but its usage is also minimal.  Unfortunately due to the GPU shortage my machine has a temporary RX 580 (I know) in it.  However I am going to loot our 3D animators computer for one of its 2080 Supers to see if that helps.
