Zoom "Translate Recording" to CPU or GPU?
Zoom uses the CPU for recording meetings instead of the GPU because it's more efficient in this scenario. It's similar to rendering a video, where the CPU handles most of the processing while the GPU manages graphics. The CPU stays busy around 60-70%, which is typical for such tasks.
It's essentially converting video back into its original format. Most decoders operate directly on the CPU.
they chose not to focus on GPU encoding since it’s easier to handle via the CPU (software method). this approach works better with more devices and reduces problems customers face.
