- HW limit for the encoder is: 3840x2160 pixels at 30FPS or :code:`248 million pixels/second`. The resolution and frame rate can be divided into multiple streams - but the sum of all the pixels/second needs to be below 248 million.

For **H.264 / H.265 encoding**, we have the following limits:

- **248 million pixels/second** limit for the encoder or 3840x2160 pixels at 30FPS. The resolution and frame rate can be divided into multiple streams - but the sum of all the pixels/second needs to be below 248 million.

- Due to a HW constraint, video encoding can be done only on frames whose width values are multiples of 32.
83+
- 4096 pixel max width for a frame.
84+
- Maximum of 3 parallel encoding streams.

The **MJPEG encoder** is capable of 16384x8192 resolution at 500Mpixel/second. From our testing, we were able to encode

4K at 30FPS and 2x 800P at 55FPS.

Note the processing resources of the encoder **are shared** between H.26x and JPEG.
