Impossible to activate the Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration

Cannot activate the Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration.

Just bought an Asus GeForce GTX 560 it just so that I can use the graphics acceleration on Adobe first Pro CS5.

Followed every step of most of the tutorials like this great http://Vimeo.com/13440307 and still the Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration option is always dimmed. 

http://www.urbanistgame.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/CUDA-supported.gif Add the last two lines that wasn't sure if it took "Ti", he came "supported" in cmd after the 'Ti', so I guess that's what she held.

You can see in bold that I put the option Multi-display/mixed-accelerating GPU 'compatibility performance Mode '.

Splash screen confirms Version 5.0.3 (update to enable the Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration).

After all that 'Make and video playback' option is always used in output.

Any ideas? Information System

List installed programs from Nvidia

I hope someone can help.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

I have reinstalled CS5 on the bookdisk and it worked fine. Past 9 hours trying everything else sound was really the only thing left and the last thing I wanted to do.

Results:

Rendering of a clip 32 min with Gaussian blur effect

Before CUDA, it took 4 hours and thus my move to buy a card CUDA.

After 23mins CUDA! using the encoder

Question:

I noticed that the GPU is not pointing out that a lot still. Operating only at 30% of the activity?

    So, I'm working on Windows 7 Professional 64 bit SP1 (my father built my desktop and here all the info I get off Speccy on its parts)

    Now, recently I'm subscribed to Adobe first CC 2015 and I open a project file that was originally a Mac computer (the disc has been formatted to be read by the PC and I got this done before so thing Mac PC should not be a problem)

    The first message, I thought "this project has been modified used with playback engine Mercury GPU acceleration (OPEN CL), which is not available or not certified on this system. Only Mercury playback engine software is used.

    I didn't know what to do with that I just said ok, just the project upward and running and everything is fine except the audio continues by cutting. He will play for about a minute on it before the audio starts to cut.

    I played a bit with my preferences and settings and preferences in reading, there is a setting that says "Enable mercury transmit." Thereby the option checked I get the audio cutting out (there are a few options with the audio device being Adobe DV or Adobe Desktop Audio sub and an option for the video device said Adobe DV and I can check or leave it disabled but results remain substantially the same.) Now I have it on Adobe audio, DV with Adobe DV checked and it goes a little long before audio cutting comes in)

    Now, if I uncheck Mercury Select pass he plays wise audio fine but after about a minute, playback stops. Literally paused, it is it's not freezing acts as I pressed pause when I touch my mouse or keyboard.

    I tried to do a new project and import all of the images in it to see if it would help, but the problem persists. My pictures comes from multiple sources, including a Sony DSLR and Iphones.

    Please tell me this is a fixable bug and Adobe CC is not incompatible with the office somehow.

    CineForm is a codec made specifically to be a "Digital Intermediate" or post-processing format. The company that created it was bought by the people of the GoPro and is used in some of their cameras. It is designed for the achievement of quality thanks to a multi-generation processing pipeline post, without loss of quality when a step is rendered on export to another station in the process.

    There were two objectives: one, it kept ALL quality through export operations repeated at a high-end professional examination and two that it was like 'light' on the processor of a computer while encoding off to play as possible. So it is not nearly as packed as many other codecs (like most H.264 & tel) and puts MUCH less strain on the CPU. It's usually large files, well that say not nearly as big as as DPX frames-based form. Does a little more direct work on the disc reading process to have been a bit bigger... but... This is a place you should have excess capacity in your system. We rarely have spare CPU capacity.

    To get it, you go to the website of the GoPro and download their free GoPro Studio, I think it is called and install. Who installs Cineform on your computer, and then you can transcode via the endoder that comes with PrPro, Adobe Media Encoder, which allows batch and same file transcoding and control things like a time for a process. Or you can do it via using Adobe prelude to ingest, rename and say: place the renamed files 'original' in a single folder permanent conservation while making another series of the same name but transcoded to X codec and laid in this case here to work with.

    Of course, you can use the (Mac) ProRes and DNxHD/R (PC) to work with, and in their larger versions, less compressed, they work just as well.

    All three codecs can be used for import in each program level pro, I know. PC cannot export ProRes that Apple will not allow the codec out of 'their' sandbox sand and DNxHD/R has been designed to work in Windows (although as ProRes, can be read / most of the Mac edition). CineForm works anyway.

    And as always in the work of pro, we deliver an export of output in that to the customer at the end of the job. If the original codec of the camera and the codec to work when editing... does not matter. Other than to be a step in the process.

  • Recommendations for a new graphics card for Prem Pro 2014 (Windows) which offers the Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration?

    Hello.

    I am inclined to believe that I could take advantage of GPU acceleration when editing as my PC is a little under spec. I have a card but when I switch to the GPU acceleration, it works but whenever I stop moving / play / rub on the timeline the preview screen becomes black.

    I don't know who might be the best card to get for my reqs. I don't think I put great demands on the software, but it still hurt. Most of my editing is the lengthy interviews 3-10 min. 2 camera multi-camera editing. I still need to change the curves of RGB, corrector of three way color, transitions and sometimes careful noise reduction. One of these leaves of evil from my PC. All the usual titles, music & voice etc. but nothing too heavy like movies or the insertion of a lot of video lines.

    I'm also a little casual work in After effects too.

    PC spec is:

    Intel Xeon CPU 1.86GHz (2 processors)

    12 GB of RAM, which I'll update to 16 GB

    64-bit op system

    Windows 7

    Radeon HD 5450 graphics card.

    Any guidance would be most appreciated

    Thanks for the link. Had a look. Needs a long look later as some useful knowledge contained in there. It refers to the CS6 so maybe info is not accurate enough, now for 2014, but good for me to learn more about graphics cards compared to the edition.

    1. CS6 was the basis for a large part of the PPBM7.com site, it has been updated with lots of new data.  The single point of reference on this site in the three versions of the same identical scenario download and is perfectly usable for CS6, CC (7 first) and CC2014 (first 8).  Run and sign up to see the results.
    2. If my assumption on your exact model of the CPU is just a new processor i7 with 4 cores is better than your two Xeons 4 strands because they have no hyperthreading.
    3. You cannot compensate for low performance CPU with a new GPU.

    I built my system of video editing, Windows 7 Ultimate, EVGA GeForce GTX 570 graphics card and motherboard ASUS Rampage III Extreme i7 920 Mhz, 24 GB of RAM. I decided to update my video card for EVGA 660Ti with many more CUDA processors and 3 GB of memory, but when I made the video I got this message "the project last used with Mercury Playback Engine acceleration GPU, which is not available on this system." Software playback engine Mercury only will be used. "and it seemed that the rendering is slower. Even if the newer video cards EVGA have more memory and processor and power more CUDA cores and best score on Intex experience Windows, Adobe does not approve them and say that they use the GPU Merecury Playback Engine acceleration. Why? Quadro cards are much more expensive have less memory, less CUDA cores but are rated higher by Adobe for creating and rendering, why is - this? What gives? Why EVGA which seem more powerful and cheaper cards rated lower than cards Quadro? This will never change?

    These cards just have not been tested yet, is all.  But if you go in the program of the PP folder and just delete the cuda_supported_cards.txt file, you should be good.

  • Mercury Playback Engine GPU is not available

    I have read through the forum messages and have not found a solution, so I apologize if there is only a solution posted elsewhere.

    I have an iMac 27 "(fin 2012) with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX running Mac OS graphics card 10.8.5."

    I use Adobe first Pro CS6.0.3, and when I upgraded my OS to 10.9 Maverick, I started to experience several problems, including:

    1. The dreaded spinning beachball and "first meets not.»
    2. "This project has been modified used with Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA) which is not available on your system. Mercury Playback Engine Software only will be used.
    3. Video files - I think they were all. MOV - became "crushed" to the top of the program screen (film picked up only about 1/3 of the window the program monitor).

    After a long conversation with the Support from Adobe, it stated that the update to 10.9 Maverick was the problem, then i:

    1. Updated for first 6.0.5 but who has not fixed any issues.
    2. Logged in as 'Root', who worked for a while but I got 3 'first encountered problem and must close.'
    3. Remove preferences, repaired permissions, database troubleshooting practices, etc., but problems persist.

    No help.

    Finally I restored my computer from a Time Machine backup to a day before the OS 10.9 update and this seemed to resolve all issues. So I was for Mac 10.8.5 and first 6.0.3.

    But the. MOV-compressed-in-the-program-monitor problem began to surface again (see photo below).

    Screen Shot 2013-11-04 at 4.34.04 PM.png

    So I updated for first to 6.0.5 (but not my OS - it is still 10.8.5), and the "Mercury playback engine" error is returned.

    Screen Shot 2013-11-04 at 2.58.47 PM.png

    And the. MOV files are always compressed in the program monitor. I have a project that I finished in 6.0.3 but is now messed up in 6.0.5.

    Help please. Is the only solution without downgrading to first 6.0.3 and if so, should I do a clean install of the program of the DVD?

  • Cannot change the Mercury playback engine

    Whenever I try to change the playback 'Software Only' Mercury "GPU acceleration" engine, I can't. The section to change the Mercury playback engine, seems to be gray, like everyone said.

    I have read and searched around Forums Adobe, but I can't seem to find an answer.

    I just got the PNY Nvidia Quadro 2000 D. I know that it works with first Pro CS5.5, because it is listed on the site-> http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html.

    I tried everything I could think:

    -Uninstalled Adobe CS5.5 then reinstalled Adobe CS5.5

    -Depth of bits Maximum Setected & maximum Render quality (from sequence settings)

    So my Question is:

    How can I solve this problem?

    I had a similar problem with CS5. I checked the ID of the graphics card has been giving to the system (CPU - Z shows for example), and I added this to the "cuda_supported_cards.txt" file in the directory of Adobe Premier Pro. He worked thereafter without hassle. My guess would be to check the cuda_supported_cards.txt file.

I don't have still done no editing hardcore, ripping the moment wasn't long but usually my video were only 5 6mins long and export was not bad at all too. So my Gtx works or it uses the video card in my procie? I tried the Hack when you open a file in adobe Premier to upgrade your GPU on the list, but did not know if it works. I typed in Geforece GTX 560 TI with OC and without did not work for end of mercury is still greyed out. I download the CUDA drivers now who could help.
