Why Teams is slowing down my Mac?
It's been a while since I've been having issues with my MacBook Pro 16" performance while using teams for example in a call or in a live event, and I can't even think of having the app open while edi...
2 of my colleagues mine experienced warped MAC batteries (and cases) as a result of their machines overheating - caused by Teams. Indication is fan staying on for a long time (all day?) which cant be healthy. Im told the solution they found (probably through online search) was to change the setting in Teams to disable GPU hardware acceleration. Worked for me! KHartman
Thanks ChrisAnders1969. I went ahead and changed my settings. Fingers crossed this helps!
Thanks for your input. This has been bugging me for ages. In my case I unchecked the box for "disable GPU hardware acceleration" and it transformed TEAMS immediately. Lag completely gone. Temperatures back to normal. CPU usage down from 100%+ to <5%!!!!!
One thing to mention is that I use an external monitor.
Thanks
MrPeterson The petition that beppemar had us sign fixed it?
It really just makes zero sense to me why my MPB always goes into Software decoding enabled when it has a Radeon video card... i mean what is a GPU for if not decoding some simple video!!!brtbendeleThe problem is that the Intel MBP 16 inch has a GPU overheating issue. I cannot use anything which uses the GPU intensivly, like video calls, connecting an external monitor or any other graphics software with too much GPU usage.
This MBP series is 50% useless and bad engineered. And the Apple support is trying to find as many excuses as possible....
sl8ed I use two external monitors! But the last two months everything has gone good, I have moved my hub and the power cord to the right and it has been a massive change in the performance, plus, have disabled CPU on Teams.
Hope this helps, sl8ed!
