Voukoder 1.2.1 Uses GPU 100% but Voukoder 2.2 Only Uses 30% - HELP!

Suzerain · November 4, 2019 at 3:36 AM

As the title says, I recently installed Voukoder 2.2 (shows up as "R2" in AME). Set the export settings the same as before (the ones I use in ver. 1.2.1) but encoding with the new version only uses the GPU 30 - 35%, making the encoding process much slower.

Also, does the new Voukoder allow for using multiple GPUs to encode simultaneously (aka SLI or NVLink)? I have two GPUs but only one is used during encoding.

Hello! I just recently downloaded and installed Voukoder 2.2 but noticed the same issue where its only using max %30 of my gpu and not 100 percent? I am exporting an after effects project in media encoder, I tried multiple settings and its still the same. Please Help!

You're not the only ones noticing this. According to this thread, Vouk is aware of this.

There's not much else to say at this point.

I myself use 1.1.3 for now; interestingly, since Suzerain mentioned 1.2.1, I might try that version too.

edit: avoid 1.2.x versions, they have issue with AAC export

I dont understand Adobe? and other codes that dont take advantage of my GPU? I have an RTX 2080 TI.. $1500 that is useless.. Daniel 2 doesnt work properly and neither does Voukoder. Any other solutions?

Can you post a voukoder log file? Then we can take a look at it.

I agreed.

Last version or 2.2.2 is 2-3 times slower than 1.1.3.

Hello,

it seems that only one GPU can be use ; "Multi-GPU" section :
