Question / Help High CPU usage when recording

[Parallaxxx]

Hi so everytime i record my cpu usage gets way too high, I've tried lowering the resolution and changing my settings around. It worked perfectly fine and then i didn't record for a month or so and now i have this problem.

In the log, you're trying to encode 1920x1080@60fps with x264 preset veryfast, and that's simply too much load for your CPU. If it worked before, you probably used a hardware encoder (ENC AMF may be available) or you set a lower resolution or you set lower fps.

i recently changed that back to 1920x1080 60fps. I tried lowering everything as i said before.

either way i was able to record 1920x1080 60 fps no problem just a couple of months ago or even earlier. So telling me that my computer all of the sudden can't handle the stress makes no sense

turn your downscale filter to bilnear (you are not downscaling so your are just adding unnecessary cpu usage).

let us know if that helped
