Hi, we have Wowza on a Xeon E5-2670, and have been trying the transcoder using QuickSync. I’m encountering a few issues:
-
Periodically the framerate drops for a few seconds, and then recovers. Sometimes this is accompanied by CPU spikes from the Java engine. The default encoder does not have the same issue.
-
CPU usage appears to be higher than if I use the default MainConcept encoder, which doesn’t seem right.
Thoughts? And finally:
- Will the logs reveal if QuickSync can’t be used and it switches to default? I saw the link related to issues with Wowza as a service not being able to access. How would we know if this is affecting us?
