Good afternoon

After now that Catalina is installed on my H270-Pro4 board I see slow h264 encoding speeds with Davinci Resolve Studio...

On High Sierra I had around 175fps for transcoding 1080p video....now it is down to around 40fps...


I applied the following settings in config.plist for Clover according to an older post:

IORegistryExplorer shows that IGPU is recognized:

Interestingly system profile doesn't show the iGPU anymore..just the RX5700XT....also iStat menu doesn't know anything about the Intel iGPU...


Anything I've missed or is different now in Catalina?

Also tried to set a different machine type in SMBIOS..but no luck...



thanks in advance

I believe ig-platform-id for Kaby Lake is 59120003.
 
Hmm..and what do I set as device-id? Leave it as it is?
 
Well....Quick Sync works....

BUT....h264 encoding is now around 40% slower with Davinci Resolve Studio 16.1.2 than on High Sierra...

So did Apple change the API to the worse with Catalina?


Can't be the new RX 5700 XT instead of the old GTX1060 as it is transcoding only...
