![]() ![]() Some computers with more powerful processors can even stream multiple videos at once, especially at lower qualities. Using the free, software-based transcoding in Plex Media Server, home computers can seamlessly convert and stream video in real-time to any Plex app. Converting the video (transcoding) happens automatically, in real-time, while you’re playing it. To play your video smoothly and on a huge variety of devices, Plex Media Server often needs to convert the video to a different quality or a compatible format. A 9900k, threadripper or 9980XE X-series can do 720p or maybe 1080p at 30 fps.Tip!: Hardware-accelerated streaming is a premium feature and requires an active Plex Pass subscription. With this CPU or faster, you could technically live-stream a smaller resolution if it’s free from other tasks. ![]() On my stock i7-8086k at 100% CPU usage, x265 Slow averaged around 8 fps on the test video. Even Medium, to VeryFast will still beat Pascal and Maxwell.īeware though, x265 takes considerably longer to encode than x264 or any NVENC or QuickSync varieties! It’s beyond most people’s CPU power to encode real-time, even if Twitch and YouTube accepted it. However if you are concerned about saving some more space, x265 Slow is the way to go. Even Pascal and Maxwell HEVC NVENC competes reasonably well with x265. Turing RTX 2080TI, 2080, 20 will all compete well with x265 at high bitrates. If speed is all you’re concerned with, and hard drive space is plentiful, then NVENC HEVC is the optimal solution. ![]() However, YouTube will accept uploads in H.265 formats, but convert them to other formats before viewers can access the video.įor offline encoding, such as archiving old videos, x265 certainly has its place. As such, to the best of my knowledge, live streaming to Twitch and YouTube is not possible with HEVC. The complicated patenting for H.265 HEVC overall has discouraged enough vendors for it to remain relatively unused for over 5 years since its release. None of the x265 presets/settings tested beat any VP9 or AV1 tests at any bandwidth.No H.264 AVC encoder tested beats any of x265’s results across all bandwidths tested here.Therefore x265 is better when bandwidth is tight, instead of when bandwidth is abundant. Many presets beat both Pascal and Maxwell HEVC NVENC at 4Mbps and 6Mbps, but at 8Mbps the advantage fades.Slow preset performs very similarly to Turing HEVC/H.265 NVENC of the same bitrate.Results x265 VMAF Scores on 2560×1440 60 fps However Slower preset is excluded from this graph since it often scores lower than the Slow preset anyway. X265 Slower was tested and it encoded at half the speed of Slow. As a result, many mainstream video providers have refused to adopt HEVC due to its expense and legal difficulties. None of them cover the entire chain of use and many use different pricing schemes. There are several different groups and individual companies who license out the patents for HEVC. Second, it includes far more patents than AVC ever did. First, it’s significantly more complicated than AVC and requires much more processing power. ![]() In case you are wondering why it’s 2019 and HEVC isn’t the standard most used, there are 2 main reasons. The x265 encoder is licensed under GPL v2 and is the software encoder of choice for most enthusiasts. Recent versions of QuickSync and NVENC are capable of encoding HEVC, albeit with limitations. HEVC was first demonstrated in 2012, around a decade after AVC’s release. Conversely, given a fixed bitrate, HEVC will almost always give more quality than an AVC version would. The H.265 format is also known as HEVC and was designed to bring about 25% to 50% less data for the same quality video as H.264 aka AVC. 8.4.3Final thoughts on Maxwell and Pascal H.264 AVC.Beyond Blue 2019 Expression of Interest – Sponsor.Beyond Blue 2019 Expression of Interest – Streamer.Unreal Aussies supporting beyondblue 2018.Twitch Brisbane Meetup at Checkpoint Gold Coast April 2019.Unreal Aussies Overwatch Summer Invitational 2018.Friday Ladies Night Join us on Discord every Friday for some HotS queues and customs!
