The new SVP-cast is awesome! But why only cpu usage? (Page 1 of 3)

The thing is that it apparently wouldn't stream it because the framerate was not reaching what i set it to. It started fine when streaming a 720p episode at a solid 60, but struggled to get 60 fps for the 4k videop and apparently wouldn't send the image it barely was able to send because the cpu was at 100%.

And why doesn't it use my GPU? The cpu went 100% when attempting to stream the 4k video even when i set it to use gpu decoding, but it uses the cpu regardless.

My go to player is mpc hc, but when testing now, the 4k movies crashes the player instantly.

And when i tried  mpv with the default device being gpu. then it stutters a lot with 100% cpu, but when i set it to use the cpu as the rendering device, then it uses 24% gpu and 14% cpu.

And when i tried again with the streamer, it still used 100% cpu in cpu and gpu render device.

this is how.

And also, for some reason, the svp cast doesn't work anymore. I try to choose my shield tv, smart tv, but now it won't start on any of them. It has a stable framerate for a 1080p movie, but won't triger my devices at all.

when i test non HDR 10bit with mpc, it just crashes. But mpv for some reason when i tried it now, did not use the interpolation at all. It was at 24 fps.

SVPCast sounds like a nice idea, but my issue with it is, that it dies before even the output begins.

i sadly dont know why it crashes, but it would be nice to know if theres a fix for it.
btw, using HLS Streaming, because i wanted to watch something on my mobile.

it doesnt go beyond that.

ill just reinstall svp again.

with a completely reinstalled svp, i still have issues.
i just selected the root folder, did not change even one setting, then it dies while i select a file on my mobile.
also: using the other command i should paste still does not work for some reason.
my pc:
FX-8350
R9 380 (with relive 17.12.2)
Windows 10 1709 (latest patchest applied, 16299.125)
will test under linux later (if it even exists on linux)

So, what can i try to do with SVPcast to get it to actually trigger the shield tv or tv to play ongoing streams? Or do i just have to wait for a fix?

I dunno... fix what you broke

- does SVP detects Chromecast device(s) correctly with the actual IPs? (see the log)
- you can enable verbose logging with "cast.verbose = true"

https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/
the newest builds linked on ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/download.html#build-windows do have h264_amf.
i see, you found it out already, sorry.

Thanks, appreciate it.
