hi,
sorry if this is a stupid question but i'm following this guide
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-use-quicksync.82/

and the first step says
"Open up your latest version of Open Broadcaster Software and go into the settings and then into the Encoding section."

except i can't find the encoding section

i'm using OBS 0.12.3
i've looked in all options under File/Settings
and i've clicked the cog under Display capture
if i add "video capture device"
then click the cog on that i get no drop down for 'device'

the machine is running win7 64 with both the 32 and 64 bit c++ runtimes.
running intel HD graphics (on board).

i'm not going to be streaming anything fancy, just some powerpoints accross a corporate network.
i'm sure i've missed something obvious but this is a first for me. at the moment i'm using display capture instead but quicksync sounds like a better solution.

(log file included)

It should. The custom build of the quicksync encoder (which is currently in development for multiplatform) will support your system. Blame MediaFoundation.
