Intel QSV hw-accelerated 4K HEVC Transcode Limit

I stand corrected…and very much impressed!

Yes ladies and gents, that is 6 4K HDR HEVC transcodes to 1080p, all done using DXVA2 for decoding and Intel QSV native for encoding.

I somehow lucked into a quasi-headless setup for the iGPU. It basically sees no activity unless PMS or something like Handbrake calls it. It’s basically my dedicated PMS iGPU in my otherwise used workstation. Pretty sweet setup for handling transcodes if you ask me.
