Video capture application that encodes into HEVC

[calande]

Hi,

Do you know a video capture application that encodes into HEVC on the fly?
I have a hard time finding one...Those that I found encode into AVC.
Thank you.

ffmpeg is capable to do capture and encode to desired codec albeit for real time probably you need to use HW encoder as HEVC is quite heavy on required CPU processing power.

Thank you, ffmpeg is the best option, I think. You're right, it works well. I successfully came up with a working list of settings that use less resources than what my computer can supply. Just for the record, here's the command line I use:

ffmpeg.exe -f dshow -video_size 1920x1080 -rtbufsize 1000000k -framerate 30 -i video="Game Capture HD60 Pro":audio="Game Capture HD60 Pro Audio" -c:a aac -ab 128000 -threads 2 -c:v libx265 -preset fast -crf 24 -pix_fmt yuv420p "out.mp4"
