I have attmpted to use Source Record last year, but ended up taking a pass on it for awhile.
Last night, I attempted to do so again. I have an M1 Max MacBook Pro with macOS Tahoe. I tested Source Record using an Insta350 Link2 4k webcam, a Sony ZV-1 set to 4K and using a CamLink2, my M4 iPad Pro, and a Rode Videomic NTG attached to my MacBook Pro.
I did see that the source files, just the video ones, did get saved to my chosen file folder. During playback though, while my voice came through, the video playback was really struggling. I have tried some different tweaks, with only slight improvements.
After some setting changes, I decided to restart my MBP. Once done, I was surprised to see a bunch of mov, mow and mp4 files in a folder, which turned out to be a temp folder. Many of those files ended up playing back way mor smoothly than the ones that were in the folder that tI created. When I tested it again, again only marginal impvent.
That tells me that I must really be missing something, since the temp files played smoother than the files that were supposed to be the end results. Now I'm confused about where the bottleneck could be, and how best to rein it in. It seems to me that I'm close to getting things nailed, but could use some guidance.
I have the encoder set to Apple HEVC Hardware, each stream as CBF and 80. Ultimately, I"d like to have 3 4K streams if possible, but may do with two.
Thanks.
