Question

Premiere Pro 2019 (13.1.4 - Build 2) will not use NVIDIA Quadro P6000 GPU to Render...

Has anyone figured out a way to get the Mercury engine to actually use the GPU to render in PP 2019? As stated in the title, I have a P6000, I'm on the latest driver (431.70). My system is a Dell Precision 7920 (tower), running on an Intel Xeon Gold chip and there's no integrated Intel graphics that would interfere.

Any insight or direction would be great!

Cheers!

Turn it on.  If it's on, it's being used where it can.

Read below doc on what the gpu does and does not do as most stuff is done on the cpu:

CUDA, OpenCL, Mercury Playback Engine, and Adobe Premiere Pro | Adobe Blog

Very useful information but it doesn't answer my question. Premiere Pro CC CAN render using CUDA in real-time. See this YT post:

NVIDIA Quadro P6000 Editing 8K RED Camera RAW "Uncompressed" Video - YouTube​

I have the same graphics card, but the app is still choosing to render using the processor, not the GPU...

Furthermore, the P6000 is found on Adobe's recommended graphics card list:

Adobe Premiere Pro System Requirements

Adobe recommends a specific NVidia driver (411.63) at the bottom of that web page. However, that driver won't install on the latest build of Windows 10 Pro for workstations...

411.63 is an old driver, 431.70 is the correct one.

What does the project settings/general say about the Video Rendering and Playback?

If it says MPE hardware what does your timeline consist of and what are your export settings?
