Is anyone here doing 1080p streaming? Just wanted to know how much more CPU intensive it is compared to 720p?

What are some issues you have faced? Have your viewers noticed a difference?

Not really. 1080p is a big pain in the butt for most people. Netflix is barely doing it currently

I am doing 1080p streaming almost daily. It can stress the CPU but the issue comes to bandwidth. The system I am using is optimized for streaming in all resolutions and the CPU is only spiked when it is needed, not all the time. I am using the Paladin (http://yourpaladin.com) and I am very happy with what it does and how agile it is

It's worth revisiting this thread in 2016.

Streaming 1080p in Wirecast requires a beast of a computer. Wirecast is pretty bloated.

I've had better luck using vMix (http://www.vmix.com). It reliably does more on less hardware than Wirecast. They even sell a 4K-capable version of vMix!
