High GPU (Video Decode) utilization when OBS is idle

[NePro100Sasha]

Hello!

My GPU (Video Decode) load of 50%, with OBS just open WITHOUT active stream or recording.
And its over 80% with recording.

No viruses.
I run as administrator.
The process has a high priority.
The drivers are "fresh".
Any recommendations?
p.s. Could it be some directX11 bug that my card doesn't support? Maybe i have to change the video rendering to a lower version? (OBS/settings/advanced/video/renderer)

One media source is set for hardware decoding:

10:20:08.277: [Media Source 'Видео работа']: settings:
10:20:08.277:     input:                   C:/Users/User/Desktop/[SET OF]/OBS/House Part 3.mp4
10:20:08.277:     input_format:            (null)
10:20:08.277:     speed:                   100
10:20:08.277:     is_looping:              no
10:20:08.277:     is_linear_alpha:         no
10:20:08.277:     is_hw_decoding:          yes
10:20:08.277:     is_clear_on_media_end:   yes
10:20:08.277:     restart_on_activate:     no
10:20:08.277:     close_when_inactive:     no
10:20:08.277:     full_decode:             no

As long as this source is actually playing back the referenced video, the GPU hardware decoder is being used. That's not a bad thing - it frees up CPU resources for tasks only a CPU can do.

God, I'm stupid!
Thank you, sir. Problem solved.
