    Default Panasonic TV transcoding problem (cpu 100%)

    Hi,

    i'm a Panasonic TX-P46GT30E owner and i'm using Mezzmo but i've some problem with transcoding. In fact when the process start the cpu usage jump to 100% and the streaming stuttering.

    I've tried with others Panasonic profile, but the result is the same.

    thank you for any kind of support.

    I'm having the same problem with my L47E5E Panasonic. And the CPU is not that bad (beeing a E3 Quadcore (with HT) Xeon and 16GB RAM) - but transcoding just hits 100% cpu and is slow at ~20fps. Transcoding with other programs runs x times faster... I think it's the bundled and older ffmpeg version?!

    Hi Freeman & JMC,

    Please post the FFmpeg information for one of the videos that is transcoding too slow. Right-click on the video in Mezzmo and click 'Get FFmpeg Information'. Also let us know the device profile assigned to your TV. Go to the Media Devices dialog to see this.

    Update: We found that one of Freeman's AVI files was being transcoded when it actually was supported by his TV. So, we have adjusted the device profile to not transcode this type of AVI file. This will result in less transcoding & immediate playback. This device profile tweak will be included in the upcoming Mezzmo v4.0 - or can be obtained now by emailing us at support [at] conceiva [dot] com.

    TBH - apart from a strange recording I did with Ngrab years ago everything else is supported by my TV - and Mezzmo wants to transcode 40% of it - i would say. But there a questions:

    - There was also an aspectratiofix, is this included in the new profile?
    - Honestly I can't understand why transcoding with mezzmo ffmpeg is so slow, machine as stated above should be able to do it faster.

    Thanks

    Hi Peter,

    We are working on a few aspect ratio improvements at the moment. They will be included in the upcoming Mezzmo v4.0. This new version will also include a new 'ffmpeg.exe' (that is ised for audio and video transcoding) and it may improve your transcoding speed a little. Transcoding speed is partly dependent on your computer's performance - but is also dependent on the original video file's attributes (resolution, video bitrate, audio/video codecs, etc.) and what you are transcoding it to (resolution, video bitrate, audio/video codecs, etc.), For example, transcoding a HD 1080p MKV (h264, AC3) with 15Mb/sec video bitrate to another video format will require significant processing due to the enormous amount of video data to be converted/transcoded.
