Hey I am trying to export a 18 min video and I export with media encoder to use my rtx 3080 to encode. At the last 10 seconds of encoding it stops using my gpu and switches to cpu and takes another 20 min to finishing the encoding. Why is it doing this? And how do I fix it? 

 

I am using i9 12th gen, an rtx 3080 and Media Encoder version 2022

I figured it out. It's because the last bit was using effects that were not gpu accelerated so it switched to the cpu to encode. If its a red line it won't use the gpu, but yellow and green it will. At least I think. Please correct me if I am wrong
