Hi Andreas,
we are currently working on confidence monitoring and live streaming.
The good news is that we found some improvements to the EpiphanProducer
so that it get more performant and you will get the confidence
monitoring with jpeg images every 5s at nearly the same CPU load than
what you have now.
For the h.264 live streaming we are not finished with the code yet, so I
can not predict how the CPU load will be when it is finished. We bought
a machine with an i7 quad core cpu for the live streaming and recording
in the next semester. I think that will be more than enough speed...
Have you considered the Epiphan Matterhorn device? I was not able to
test it yet, but the colleagues from USASK seem to be very impressed.

Hi,
we currently consider new hardware for our capture agents in the
lecture rooms. Our current hardware is DualCore, and we see our
systems go up to about 70% each while recording.
Will QuadCore bring better performance on the capture agents, or is
this an overkill? When recording Audio, Camera and Presentation, are
this 3 workflows, each of which would be encoded in a seperate
workflow=core, causing less hassle?
The question also arises, since lecturers tend to ask for additional
features such as confidence monitoring, which would need additional
processing power and thus is more likely to bring in hassle with the
recordings, if CPUs meet the 100% limit.
I hope there are some recommendations to this out there :): should we
go for QuadCore or is it not worth it?
Greetings and a nice day,
Andreas -----------------------
