Playback painfully jerky, slow and stuttering.

I just uninstalled Deepstack and Blue Iris, deregistered it and deleted the registry key.

Here's what my performance looks like:

I noticed that my GPU usage was still reporting 24% even though I had nothing running but Parsec, so I played around with some settings and I noticed 'Constant FPS' was checked.

I unchecked it, and this is what happened:

Gonna reinstall everything now. I wonder if that's what it was all along.
 
now he mentions it. :) hmmmm I hope that does it.... looks like it was quite GPu intensive
 
yes. Good luck sir.....

Me thinks you need to find a less intensive remote connection. Like even Remote Desktop (that most consider resource intensive) doesn't use that much resources. Pegging the CPU and GPU like that is probably the cause of all your problems.

RDP for me adds zero to GPU and under 10% for CPU.

The weird thing was that I was also using RDP during troubleshooting earlier today, and I didn't notice any difference in performance. It's almost like that 'constant FPS' setting was consuming resources even without Parsec being connected to anything. Maybe reserving some GPU resources?

It's certainly not resource intensive now after I unchecked it!
 
Ok I just installed BI again and imported my settings.
Here's the performance with the console open and all cameras running, hardware acceleration turned on (Intel).

Is this reasonable for my system?
 
And here's the performance while connected to Parsec:

And connected to Parsec while playing back a mainstream recording through the console:

Thoughts?
 
It still is high. I have way more cams and a way less machine and don't hit that high.\

Is this still on Win11 or did you end up going back to Win10?
 
Still Win11. I wanted to rule out the BI installation itself first.
I'll wipe it and install Win10 over the weekend.

Not sure if it'll make a difference, because if you see my screenshots above, uninstalling BI and Deepstack and unchecking 'constant FPS' on parsec pretty much reduces usage down to 1%.

So that means it has to be BlueIris, right?
 
Or Blue Iris and Win11 having some issue.

While I would like to see it a lot lower on that machine with your number of cameras, as long as it isn't pegging out at 100% and if the playback has calmed down, then I guess go with it.
 
Yeah I see what you're saying. I'm tempted to just leave it, but knowing that people have got less powerful machines and getting way better performance really itches me.

Could it even be something in my cameras themselves that are causing excessing resource usage?

Yeah, I get that. Gotta suck knowing someone runs 50 cameras on a 4th gen at 30%CPU and another runs 18 cams on a 3rd gen at 15% LOL

Those settings all look reasonable. Personally I run the substream bitrate lower, but at D1 it doesn't make an appreciable difference.
