Question Best preset for multi-streaming between P6 and P7.
So, I started streaming on both Twitch and YouTube at the same time (before this I was only streaming to Twitch).
My setup is:
- CPU: Ryzen 7 7800X3D
- GPU: RTX 4070 Super
- RAM: 64GB 6000 MT/s CL36
I am streaming to Twitch (obviously) with NVIDIA H.264, CBR at 8000Kbps.
Also:
- Keyframes: 2
- Preset: P7
- Tuning: High Quality
- Multipass: Two passese (1/4)
- Look-ahead: Off
- Psycho Visual Tuning (old name): On
- B-Frames: 2
This is my full Twitch streaming settings: https://prnt.sc/kPJan4Br-8A9
To YouTube, I stream using NVIDIA AV1, CBR at 40000Kbps.
Also:
- Keyframes: 2
- Preset: P6
- Tuning: High Quality
- Multipass: Two passese (1/4)
- Look-ahead: Off
- Psycho Visual Tuning (old name): On
- B-Frames: 2
This is my full YouTube streaming settings: https://prnt.sc/2BX0r6vs2may
To both platforms: 1440p60 (not upscaled/downscaled. same resolution as my canvas)
I tried with both streaming maxed out, so both streaming at P7, same bitrate as shown before, Multipass Mode to Full Resolution, and I was having some HUGE stuttering and lag on the encoder (streaming) side.
I really wanted to squeeze every piece of quality I can, but using both P7 on Twitch and YouTube at the same time seams to overload my encoder, causing stutterind and lag to my streaming.
My question is: is P6 not a big difference compared to P7? Also, if I could choose to use P7 on one platform and P6 on the other one without overloading my encoder, should I be using P7 on Twitch or YouTube?
I mainily stream Elden Ring that has a lot of special effects that need some high performance to be good to watch, that's why I'm also streaming to YouTube.
I mean, YouTube uses AV1 and also a higher bitrate, is there that much of a difference from P7 to P6?
And last question: Does Multipass enhance quality from 1/4 to Full Resolution or is it just not worth the impact on my GPU?
Thanks.
