HTML Template Dropping Frames

I am developing HTML Templates and when testing them in a browser the performance is fine but, frames start dropping when Caspar plays them out.

Here are the computer specs.

  • Processor: i7-7820X 3.6 GHz 8-Core
  • Motherboard: MSI X299 LGA 2066 ATX Baord
  • Graphics Card: GTX 1070 Ti w/ 8GB or VRAM
  • Storage:
    • Caspar is on a Samsung 250GB 960 EVO NVMe M.2 drive
    • OS is on a Samsung 250GB SSD
  • RAM: Ballistix 32GB DDR4 3000
  • OS: Windows 10 Home

Caspar Setup:

  • Output: Blackmagic Deklick 4k Extreme
  • Config File

After reading a few articles, listed below, I believe updating the Graphics card to a Quardo P2000 or better, doubling the RAM, and getting another NVMe SSD and running it in RAID 0 for Caspar / all media should do the trick? Could this also be an issue with Caspar’s chromium? Maybe a bottleneck there?

May have solved it myself. I can not remember where but I read that enabling <enable-gpu> can cause some issues. After changing it to false, the dropped frames seem to go away.
