Butterflow doesn't seem to be utilizing all of my GPU (Windows)

Open databoose opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

Here are the parameters i'm using:

"butterflow.exe -r 50 -l -sm -audio C:/Users/databoose/Downloads/cowboy/ep3.mp4 -o C:/Users/databoose/Desktop/interpolated/ep3.mp4 -v -p"

It seems to spike up my CPU usage however my GPU usage barely even reaches 11%, this is a problem considering it will take an extremely long time to render the video. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I believe butterflow has minimal, if any, GPU acceleration. This is true of most rendering software, and while annoying, is very difficult to solve. To implement hardware acceleration could be a long and difficult task, and has potential compatibility issues, not to mention less control of the result. This is why so many video programs end up CPU-bound.

Unfortunately I don't think there's a good solution to your "problem" as it is pretty typical.
