Hello everyone, I'm using a pc with itx motherboard.
I have a good cpu, i7 - 8770K but I have an intel 630 integrated video card.
I can not mount an additional video card because I installed a BlackMagic Quad card on the single pcix slot.
When I do stremaing and register at the same time known an overload of the GPU and the CPU works very little.
Can I send the h264 encoding back to the CPU so as not to overload the GPU?
Thank you

Just don't tick the "hardware encoder" option box for streaming and recording

I did it but it did not change anything about the use of the GPU

So I guess this GPU overload is not due to H.264 encoding but to basic treatment of your sources into vMix.

How many cams? How many inputs ? Which type ?

You know that vMix entirely relies on GPU for operating. It seems you underestimated the hardware requirements. ITX motherboards are really not a good choice for multicam.

For example if I enter 4 inputs from the Blackmagic Quad, I see everything correctly. Just start streaming on youtube I have the warning message GPU overload, even if I remove the check "Use Hardware Encoder"
CPU load always remains very low, around 20%

With such a CPU, encoding is not always a big load on CPU especially if you don't have high quality settings.
For example, what happens if you choose "veryslow" for encoding preset with fullHD resolution? If it stays by 20% then you're still on GPU encoding, not CPU.

If your windows is 1803, Task Manager reports the load on GPU. ALternatively use GPU-Z to check realtime load on your GPU

Hardware encoder h264 do something on intel 630?. Or this is for nvidia cards only?.

I think on nvidia cards hardware encoding has it own “chip” and is not an extra load on gpu. On windows you can see two graphs, one is gpu and other encoder gpu. With quadro you can overload gpu encoder if you encode too much cameras, but not gpu engine necesarily.

Regards

The hardware encoding option makes vMix use the NVENC feature of the nVidia GPU. That's a dedicated hardware encoder.

It does nothing with respect to the Intel 630 GPU.
