Has anyone had experience with Intel Iris Graphics 540 or Intel Iris Graphics 550? How does vMix perform with these integrated graphics cards?

Thanks

This is interesting. The Airtop-PC that I just ordered has both Intel Iris Pro 6200 and nVidia GTX750Ti. I was curious to see how this compared to the Intel Iris 550 mentioned here.

This web site seems to have a nice amount of detail about the Intel embedded graphics capabilities.

the big (huge) adantage of iris pro vs extra gpu like nvidia 1060 is that its onboard the chip, so fast. and integrated.

i read benchmarks runninf fcpx 10 on a apple pro with two powerfull pgus vs iris pro which runs in a apple laptop high end and on simple rendering tasks like single pass mp4 rendering the iris pro outperformed the apple pro.

my experience is that vmix is easy cake for an iris pro. but if you want to do it all, recording, up down scaling, output and streaming three streams.... whaah ... any set would be require work to get it smooth.

i do basic 3 or 4 input recordings, most of the work is done by the capture cards, cpu gpu around 10-15 percent...

very happy with that iris pro 580, very affordable, it gives me a good feeling, because one thing less to worry about, and i am in the mood for downsizing hardware and up maxing vmix productions.

testing testing testing... then you might know.

and

i always favor to split cpu intensive activities on seperate machines. two vmix one for mixing rec and one for streaming.

for streaming I also use a yuan stream box or now the new webpresenter.

easy flexible and it not all depends on one cable to the mains... I mean: don't put all your eggs in one basket cpu gpu...

stefan

yes, and sometimes two external vmix mchines for two seperate streams for two languages.

the bm shuttle usb3 dongle allows to pass thru the output signal from vmix 1 to 2 and 3

you can send left and right channels but I think the receiver will not alway know what to do to select one channel only.

what do you think?

well, my vmix 1 will not fail. it used to, but now vmix is grown up and reliable.

i always make a backup master on the cameras thats why i dont use webcams for main productions and always make sure i have saved the preset of the active project in use after every change. this way I can restart in under 2 minutes.

there is no 100% reliability... did you see the oscars... ?

it is a matter of testing testing testing and doing doing doing and thinking in multiple layers and options. and experience. the experience you get when things go wrong until they dont and the you can call yourself pro.
