Transcoding

Hi,
the OBS is a very great software for live streaming and recording.
Transcoding for archiving purposes would be a nice option too I guess.
Cheers.

You can save the file that you're currently streaming at no additional CPU cost by saying "Save to File" in Broadcast settings. If you want to save at two different bit rates, then for the time being, it's somewhat difficult. The rewrite will make it much easier, but for now, you can run two instances of OBS by adding the "-multi" flag to the end of the Target in your OBS shortcut.

Running two encoders is only a bad idea if your CPU can't handle it. Which it very well might not be able to, but that's up to the user to decide.

Thanks for the answers.

I happened to have a Digital Rapids DRC-500 capture card.
The reason why I asked about a transcoding option is because I have some MPEG-2 files that need to be deinterlaced.
And the real-time video pre-processing features including motion-adaptive de-interlacing with pixel-level analysis given by the onboard Faroudja chip will give the result I want.

What I need to do to is to deinterlace ( in real time) and transcode MPEG-2 files into Cineform Intermediate files for archiving purposes.
