A lot of processing power to use (re-encoding and transcoding for certain streaming clients) when, like others say, it might just be easier to not bother
It's crazy. Why does the libx265 take SO much processing power to just convert ONE file at a time. I mean it pushes my CPU to >80% and if I try 2 files it's 100% and stays there. And, the hevc_amf encoder won't create 10-bit HEVC through the GUI I use. I'm just about ready to encode from the original sources again to h.264 and forget it.
I agree and have found that out. HEVC is a hog when it comes to processing. But, the reason I'm re-encoding is because my system crashed or should I say someone crashed it for me (long story) and I need to rebuild a large part of my library and just want everything consistent.
