h265 extremely slow seek in mp4
Posted: Tue Jan 23, 2018 6:53 am
Hello Mediacoder community!
I have been looking into Fast Forward and Rewind in Mp4 videos and what they depend on and realized that the lower the GOP value is, the faster the seeking times in an mp4 video (in windows media player).
This applies perfectly when I encode with NVENC and using the H264 format.
But when I try with the H265, fast forward becomes impossible regardless of how low the GOP is.
I have read a suggestion that with H265, the parameter open-GOP should be disabled,
but that's disabled in Mediacoder by default, right?
Does anyone know if there is anything else I can do to achieve fast seeking times in H265?
Thank you!
