Greets, Folks.
I had a heck of a time trying to find a way to post to the Source Record plugin forums, so posting here instead.
I have downloaded and installed Source Record recently, as I wish to do multicam recording, not streaming (at least, in this case). I have four 4K camera sources I'd like to record separately, and at the same time. I have two Sony ZV-1 cameras, each attached to Calming 4K devices. I also have a Insta350 Link 2 webcam, and using the Apple Studio web display to test, with each camera being a scene in OBS Studio. The video outputs are coming through fine in the software.
By the way, the main computer I'm using is an M1 Max MacBook Pro; 64GB unified memory, 24-core GPU, and about 2TB of free space.
When I set up Source Record for each video capture source, for some reason I used one of the 4K 16:9 aspect ratio settings; I tried typing the values in manually, but it would not let me for some reason. Otherwise, I did choose Apple VT hardware encoder for all four sources. I also put in an arbitrary bit-rate, not having any guidance on what vaoue should appear.
I then attempted a test recording from OBS. Two things occurred: first, only one source out of four had any recording, and during playback, the video was choppy. Second, saw a status later on the bottom left of the screen referring to "encoder overload." en
I admit that I'm a newbie at this, but I have to believe that I'm really close to getting it right. I could use some guidance to help close the gap. Many thanks for reading!
