#Wirecast for mac bitrates pro#

In my testing on a different machine (16' Macbook Pro 2019 16GB MacOS 11.5) there is no change with this issue in Wirecast 14.3. Yes I understand the concept of updates, but you have not attempted to address this specific issue so I'm not going to rebuild my show mid run. I looked at the release notes and there is no mention of a fix for this issue. 'If there's a fix it would be in the update.' Honestly with this big of an output problem I'm surprised the encoder is enabled in software. I realize you are dealing with a lot of issues and I do appreciate your support, but I feel this a known issue that I'm having to dig into forums to find instead of it being in the release notes or manual.

I'm sorry if I'm coming across as argumentative, but I just got burned by this issue and it's still raw. I fail to see how topping out around 60% is 'safe' when 'above 60%' will result in dropped frames. You specifically recommend using Apple H.264 in the 'How to lower CPU use' post, but there's no mention of this mystery problem that may be an issue. Unless you know of specific encoder settings or content parameters that make it work. This encoder is unusable as is, and apparently has been for at least 3 years judging by other forum posts. Does Wirecast 14.3 include specific fixes for this issue? If it's an issue with Apple H.264 and not wirecast, how will updating help? I do plan on updating once current productions are wrapped, but I do grow weary of this being the first line of defense on an otherwise working system.Ĭontent is usually a live video source coming in through a blackmagic mini recorder, but it happens with local files as well.
