OBS update issues and encoding speed (2025-11-07 07:55Z)

User (2025-11-07 07:55Z)

Kinda crazy. OBS updating murdered all of my preferences, so I forgot to change the default rescaled output and default framerate from 60. My @encode_VOD.py script recoded the 2hr+ file in 18 minutes. @1080p60, I would normally expect that to take at least an hour... That's the difference between ~2x speed and ~7x speed... @encode_20251107_003149.log

Reviewing the log to understand why encoding was faster than expected.

The log shows why it was faster than expected:

Input file specs:

  • Resolution: 1280x720 (not 1080p)
  • Frame rate: 30 fps (not 60 fps)
  • Duration: 2h 14m 30s (8070 seconds)

Encoding performance:

  • Speed: consistently ~9.2x–9.4x
  • Total time: ~18 minutes (00:31:50 → 00:50:34)

Why it was faster:

720p30 vs 1080p60:

  • Pixels: 921,600 vs 2,073,600 (2.25x fewer)
  • Frame rate: 30 vs 60 fps (2x fewer frames)
  • Combined: ~4.5x less work

So ~9x speed for 720p30 roughly matches ~2x speed for 1080p60, which aligns with your expectation.

The script is working as expected; the input was recorded at 720p30 due to OBS settings resetting. If you re-encode a true 1080p60 file, expect ~2x speed.

The encoding completed successfully with a 2.78x compression ratio (19.10 GB → ~6.87 GB).
