Recently installed a MSI 1050 card. The log shows that OBS sees it -- https://obsproject.com/logs/PPu_CJzcxPtsmHXp

But it won't show up in Output/Encoder.

We are streaming several Ethernet cameras and two DSLRs over USB using ffmpeg

Dell Optiplex 990 with i7

With no video card, load averages get high -- 10-12 -- and CPU is at 60-80% when we have both DSLRs and a couple Ethernet cameras in the scene and we are recording and streaming. But the stream to YouTube is pretty much flawless.

When we try to add a iPhone 7 via the NDI pluigin the load average goes to 20+

So we are attempting to offload some of the video processing with the MSI card. Will this work?

Thanks for any input.
