When I stream 4k from my laptop ffmpeg gets very intense about cpu usage to the point fans are constantly at high speed and it's distracting. I hope this helps in some way. I have a fairly decent specces mid-tier laptop.

I believe ffmpeg can be compiled to support the GPU, if your laptop has one. It works at least for CUDA-enabled GPUs (https://docs.nvidia.com/video-technologies/video-codec-sdk/12.0/ffmpeg-with-nvidia-gpu/index.html https://docs.nvidia.com/video-technologies/video-codec-sdk/1...) Talk with ChatGPT about it and see if you can do it.

  My comment got quite downvoted. I blame ChatGPT for teaching me about whatever I said that was wrong.

  ??? Just Google it.

  Thanks, I don't think it has a gpu separate from that is cuda-enabled but I have other systems that do, will look into it.
