Does anyone have experience with a hardware live streaming encoder like the Teradek VidiU? Is the stream quality better than FMLE/FFMPEG? How about the audio sync?

I use Hardware encoders almost exclusively. My main reason is to offload the encoding processing from the vMix machine. FMLE can push my CPU Load from 25% to 90% or higher. I use Vidiu and Cubes.

I use both. Depending of do I need graphics or not. Easier stream or complicated. I am satisfied with both but vidiU makes great job :)

FMLE baseline has some artefacts, the main profile doesn't, but is choppy. Maybe my PC is not fast enough, but the CPU usage is never more than 60%. Can I compare the Teradek VidiU with FMLE in highest quality mode on a very fast PC? When I read this then it doesn't really seem like an improvement.

It depends. For example I streamed yesterday with fmle 854x480 800 bitrate, i3 with 4 gb RAM, the cpu was on 90-100% and droping..When I use Wirecast with same settings + graphics + desktop presenter the cpu was on 30-40%
so in my case I am very dissapointed with FMLE

What profile (baseline/main) and settings do you use and do you have the same issue with FFMEG?
Does the Vidiu always perform better than FMLE?

Does the Vidiu always perform better than FMLE? Think its Main I didn't have problems with fmle earlier, not this kind of problems. Maybe sometime vidiU will make me problems but as I know and talk with people who use it its great for simple streaming, camera, internet and vidiU :)
