Im trying to figure out how to use cpu encoding for davinci resolve. I have no luck in finding out how to change it. Im using the youtube 2160p preset, but the format is in mp4. So how do I change it to CPU encoding? Mods feel free to move it where ever you feel needed.

Im mostly on discord now and you can find me on my profile

I feel like there should be a setting in Davinci Resolve to change what encodes. Although from what I can find on the web, it appears Davinci Resolve only encodes on the GPU and only needs the CPU to feed information to the GPU.

Ah ok, Im seeing it use ~50% of my cpu most the time and 10-100% of my gpu.

Yeah, from what I can find, the GPU ends up doing more work unless you have a CPU bottleneck.

Ok, so I should invest in getting a better gpu. I'll be buying the RTX 2070 anyways.

I had my eyes on that one as well, it looks like a pretty good deal.

 

Best of luck.

If I find anything about encoding on the CPU I'll let you know, but as far as I can see, it only encodes on the GPU.

Yeah it does. I should be good once I upgrade it.
