Update 25.2 | Unable to render via CUDA

Apologies.

- Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU. Running Windows 11Pro version 24H2

- Using 60fps 1920x1080 video recording from gopro hero10/11; combined with 4k/60fps video recorded from sony fx30 (slog3)

- trying to export everything to 1920x1080/60fps video; 

BTW: I heard there were some issues with the 57x.xx game ready drivers, I had already installe 572.16 Studio driver, so you may want to roll back to a 56x.xx driver. Studio only always.

It would be advantageous to us if you, I don't know, maybe said what video card you are using. And other tech specs...

Info needed for a bug / tech support

I was just exporting some items via ME and it was working OK.

Win11 23H2, PP 25.2, RTX-4070

Update: Created brand new project file, with different files (much smaller in size); sent project to media encoder via CUDA; project appears to render fine

This leads me to believe it may be something to do with the separate project files.....maybe a graphic or something...will continue to investigate and circle back 

@Fergus H - Thanks for replying. I'm sure we'll find a solution to this eventually. 

I did exactly what you suggested. To my suprise - my video card driver was out to date. I've updated accordingly, then subsequently updated premiere/media encoder back to version 25.2.After which I cleared all media cache and ran through the same render/export steps. I've confirmed that no 3rd party plugins are enabled. Here are my new results:

- Sent project (original one that sparked the issue) to export/render via media encoder with CUDA; failed with same error "Error compiling movie. | Accelerated Renderer Error | Unable to produce frame."
- Attempted to render the un-rendered frames (the red bar) in the project within Premiere Pro; this was successful. Wherehase originally, it would fail immediately.

- Sent project to export/render via media encoder with CUDA for a second attempt (now that all frames are rendered in project); failed with same error "Error compiling movie. | Accelerated Renderer Error | Unable to produce frame."

TLDR: Video card drivers are now updated; issue still persists. Can only render in media encoder if set to OpenCL

Also thanks to mods for consolidating my posts/threads

@Half-Duplex Thanks for reporting the issue you're experiencing. We're not hearing this as a wide-spread issue but, of course, v25.2 is fairly new. 

There are two suggestions I would make: 

1. Install an updated NVIDIA GPU driver. I would suggest starting by just using Windows Update and, if you still have the issue, manually install an update driver by going to www.nvidia.com/drivers, select your video card type and OS, and download and install the NVIDA Studio Driver.
2. The next step would be more generic toubleshooting: hold down the shift key while launching Premiere Pro. Delete the media cache, reset your preferences and disable third-party plugins. 

I'm looking forward to hearing if these things help! We're very intereted to know. 

Regards,

Fergus

I'm now having this same problem as of the latest patch update. Media encoder was exporting fine, now it only renders using OpenCL instead of CUDA.....
