Hardware Transcoding

Mezzmo server can take advantage of hardware-based encoding via Intel Quick Sync. This can provide significantly faster transcoding speeds (as compared to software-based transcoding) and lessen the overall load on your computer's CPU.

Go to the Transcoding Settings dialog to turn it on.

If the 'Use Intel Quick Sync for faster transcoding' button is disabled, then the possible reasons are: [LIST] [*]Your CPU does not have Quick Sync features. You can check your CPU model at Intel's ARK eb site - [url]http://ark.intel.com/[/url] [*]Mezzmo could not locate Intel's Quick Sync DLLs on your computer. Mezzmo needs these DLLs to communicate with your CPU to use Intel's Quick Sync features. You can download the Quick Sync DLLs by installing the Intel Media SDK. It is a free download from [url]https://software.intel.com/en-us/media-sdk/download[/url]. [/LIST]
