What is a stem?

@RogerS - Thank you. I'm on the case now.

@RogerS - I call it a "Stem", it is that initial Listing, I should call it Formats - see in my post above.

Just fill this in 4 times for the two encode modes and 2 resolutions:

    User name        :
    Machine            :
    VP version        :
    VP Build number        :
    CPU            :
    Cores            :
    GPU            :
    iGPU            :
    OC            :
    Render frame size    :
    HW Acc.            :
    Render As        :    
    Encode mode        :
    Render time        :
    FPS            :
    Comments        :

@RogerS - RIght, here they are, all from the SAME Format ALL MAGIX AVC and I used your Listing as reference! Made it simpler to keep tally.

UHD (4K) NVENC 1:15
UHD (4K) Mainconcept 1:40

FHD (1080p) NVENC 00:46
FHD (1080p) Mainconcept 00:52

@RogerS - A big thank you for your patience with me.😉

@RogerS - Er, just seen your invitation to Form Filling. Shall I do that here? If so I have some questions:

1 - Is that an INTERGRATED GPU? Have we established I don't have one?

2 - OC = Over Clocked - yes?

3 - These two: Render As        :    and this Encode mode        :

4 - What Comments could I be making?

1. none
2. no idea about your system, if you don't know, leave it blank
3. Render as: Magix AVC
4. Encode Mode: NVENC or CPU
5. Comments- anything you wish to add about the system/build (not necessary)

Then paste these filled in templates into the last page of the benchmarking results continued thread.

@RogerS - Just been to the Continue Thread, and I don't see people doing Mainconcept (MC)? Unless it is called something else?

Mainconcept = CPU. They're calling it CPU. As the render templates call it Mainconcept I wanted to help you find the right one.

Ah right! So I’ve entered all my MainConcept Renders as just that. And of course, it’s a s/w renderer, and where else would it do it’s work, but through the CPU! Tricky these misunderstandings. But you and I got there, in the end.
