Advanced setup
Twenty-One Encoder can be fine tuned from the Advanced Setup page found under Setup.
Advanced settings allow you to adjust other Twenty-one encoder parameters such as debug logging, low level performance and quality tuning, the behavior of NVENC, etc.
It’s advised to consult configuration adjustments in the advanced settings .ini files with Comprimato Support or your reseller.
