Bug Report No Intel Quick Sync Option Under Windows 10

[boshhead]

Video Card: AMD R7 260X
OS: Windows 10
CPU: i5-3550 (Ivy Bridge)
OBS: 0.13.1

After upgrading to Windows 10 from 7, the option to use Intel Quick Sync no longer appears unless I have the intel card connected to a 2nd monitor that is powered on and displayed. I used to just be able to set up a "fake monitor" in Windows 7, and I could use Intel Quick Sync then. But even though I have performed the same steps under Windows 10, I still get no option for Quick Sync.

I successfully use Intel Quick Sync with Cyberlink Powerdirector to encode my videos (WITHOUT having to connect the card to a real monitor).

I do have the latest drivers from Intel installed (just installed them again the other day to be sure).

Any fix for this? Thanks!

Only 4xxx or higher series of Intel cpu's are supported in the quicksync implementation in Media Foundation (made by Microsoft), which OBS Studio uses. I think 0.14.0 will contain a native quicksync implementation.

Win 10 ! Intel 4790K No Quick Sync at OBS 0.13.1

Then you probably have a Windows 10 N edition without the media feature pack installed.

3770k @4.5 windows 10 pro, no quick sync available in obs studio.0 13.1

Classic OBS works fine.

Semel, you didn't actually read the thread.
