Encoding slows down
MrWGT opened this issue · 5 comments
Most of the time encoding 4k works flawless. But sometimes it slows down:
PG is not supported on this platform, switched to FF mode.
adaptiveRef is not supported on current platform, disabled.

As you can see the VD and GPU utilization drops down a lot. At the end of the encoding i'll get 8..12fps. My ARC A380 is nearly idling.
What could be the reason?
Would you please have a check if Resizabe BAR is enabled? It can be check using GPU-Z.
I've seen GPU clock and encoding speed dropping myself when Resizabe BAR was disabled.
If Resizabe BAR is enabled, I'm sorry but I currently don't have a idea now.
Resizable Bar is enabled and i've just a few movies with that behavior - maybe 5-10 out of 500. Don't know why. Other UHD movies are between ~70 to 100 fps.
Unfortunately, I also have no idea, without filters I've faced that kind of issue, but not with filter enabled.
If GPU clock is falling down to 600MHz(= idle clock), --avoid-idle-clock on in QSVEnc 7.61 might help but I'm not sure.

--avoid-idle-clock onin QSVEnc 7.61 might help but I'm not sure.
This fixes the issue for me.
I also experienced slowdowns while encoding (mostly 4k but also 1080p) on Intel Arc A380 (Resizabe BAR on).
Thanks, I'll close the issue, as --avoid-idle-clock might have fixed this issue.
