Re: 0.60 test build 5
Will the NVENC presets be selectable in OBS? VC, WIDI, HP, HQ etc mentioned in https://developer.nvidia.com/sites/defa ... ppNote.pdf
EDIT: It's on Page 13.

How are you able to modify the NVREC preset? Changing options from within OBS does nothing to change the output quality.

Re: 0.60 test build 5
Which is the lowest spec 600 series card that will run it? For example, I have a GT 630 in my media center PC... can I borrow that card to run this?
Can you more fully describe what encode settings its hard-coded to, or what x264 equivalents would be?

Re: 0.60 test build 5
Cool, it appears I lucked out and got the right one. Ordinarily the GT630 is pretty dang weak for OBS use and is a bit of a bottleneck the little bit I tested it. So it'll be interesting to see if it completely changes character using this NVENC thing.
Can you answer this though:

Re: 0.60 test build 5
I have no idea what x264 settings it corrosponds to. I made the preset switchable in the meantime, but you don't realy want to use anything else than the HQ one for streaming, which is still the default.
You can also just plugin the GT630 as second card, if the first one also is a nvidia, CUDA is perfectly fine with that.

Re: 0.60 test build 5
Testing the Nvenc function.
I would say it is worse then Quick Sync on the 3500Bitrate mark (1080P), it blurs alot with quick movement, i mean really alot.
I hope Nvenc can increase in quality over time or else Intel did a great job lol.
For now I will change back to quick sync, hope the future bring us a nicer nvenc ^^.
When disabling my IGPU and i try monitorcapture it will be lines the watchers gona see, totally no schreen is getting displayed (with nvenc enabled offcourse).
Specs:
3840QM i7 cpu (HD4000, can disable and enable)
680M GTX

Re: 0.60 test build 5
Small bug in latest build (70026e8f3):
- When I enable 'quick sync'. the 'use custom ssettings' checkbox is enabled. But when I disable the quicksync checkbox, the 'use custom settings' checkbox is not disabled again.
- I have a GTX 680, but NVENC is always disabled in this build (70026e8f3). (I have the nvenc.dll and enabled shadow play in GForce experience)
I could enable nvenc in the latests official test build, but it gave an error about it not being supported.
Is there anything else I need?
