10 parsec software#

If the guest's overlay says Software H.264 next to the latencies, Parsec isn't using the hardware decoder which results in much worse decoder latency.The web client does not have access to low-level hardware optimizations or hardware decoding, if you're having issues with the web app, you should download the native app for your system If the guest is joining via the browser, you may notice Decode says N/A.However, you should also keep in mind the following things:

Resolution is usually changed through Windows but sometimes also in-game, and the connected guests can see the current resolution next to the latencies in the overlay. In general, lowering the resolution and FPS of the host will reduce the latency. What to do if the decode or encode latencies are too high? When streaming 60fps, you don't want to go above 15ms. High numbers can mean major issues to the stream. Decode is the guest device, and encode is the host device. Put a very visually active game or video on the host, then press Ctrl+Shift+M on the guest to see the information below.ĭecode and Encode is the time the device takes to handle a single frame. This article goes over checking Parsec's latency info and console log for information on why the stream is performing poorly, and some tips to fix it depending on what Parsec shows.

The quality and performance of a Parsec stream is very dependent on the network and hardware of the host and the people joining the stream.
