Question / Help Encoding Overload, but low CPU usage

[Juanescacha]

I may be wrong, and the OP may never see this but was your original hard drive nearly full? Mine was 2TB and had 400gb left on it, and I was getting the errors, but once I switched drives I stopped getting the encoding overload issue. I'm still using another hard drive, its just an empty drive. You may just need to keep it 50% empty

have a 4tb drive with 1,40tb free, sure you have to keep 50% empty?

i have low cpu and gpu usage but recording in high bitrate makes getting encoder overload and get like 60 fps skipped every like 5 minutes of recording
