Hello,
I would like to be able to capture All-I from OBS to match my current workflow from my camera. Would like to use both desktop and gaming from a capture card for this.
Mostly doing this for editing purposes as no matter what hardware you have is there timeline degradation when using h.264/265. I have very capable hardware on my Windows Desktop (5950x, 4070ti) and Mac Laptop (M1, 16gb) so i have the hardware acceleration but as you stack on more h.265/265 that is using Long GOP eventually you have to proxy things out to get better performance.
I know all-I is not perfect but I believe its a pretty good way to be able to edit smoothly across the board with similar match codec from my camera and no need proxies. I mainly edit desktop so i have plenty of storage space and manage projects properly (Why have 1TB or 2 TB drives if your not going to use the full storage which is cheap these days.) I also have a NAS which i have 50+ TB of storage available for archiving. I also figure if I need space I can always either delete what I don't need or transcode to shrink the file and use a proxy if i need to come back to that file later (probably years later)
