If you need lower load on 4K cameras see: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=27537
Wait what does the hardware acceleration option do then?

I thought that was for GPUs to offset some of the workload

From the reports on the forum, performance of graphics cards is mixed atm. It's new & WIP. Advanced users only.

First upgrade the CPU / motherboard.
fastest way to test streams:
ffmpeg -i rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path ./output.mp4 (if terminal only)
ffplay rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path (gui)
find paths on ispydb or in zm hcl

If you are new to security software, read:

So the performance gains from using the hardware acceleration option are not significant, but there are performance gains from using that option right?
I currently have a GPU in that pc and it seems like a waste to have it doing nothing at all. Even if the gains aren't great I'd still like to do it. I just have this problem whenever I try. The logs will say something along the lines of hardware acceleration device not found...
