    Mercury Playback Engine with GPU Acceleration is separate from Hardware-accelerated H.264 encoding.

    Hardware-accelerated H.264 encoding (new feature in Premiere Pro 12.1) requires a CPU that supports Intel Quick Sync.

    Moreover, Intel Graphics needs to be enabled on your PC (some manufacturers may choose to disable Intel Graphics).

    On my PC (i7-8700 3.2Ghz), which on the list says "Intel Quick Sync Video: Yes",

    Hardware encoding is still showing as unavailable

    Hi. I have possibly the same problem and I don't think its anything to do with system spec. My hardware acceleration was working fine until last night when all of a sudden all images turned green, ghosting and horizontal bars on screen. If I switch to mercury software option its fine. Graphics card is fine in after effects and other programmes. Could this be some kind of driver problem with premiere pro hardware acceleration?

    I have the same problem with GTX 970, only software rendering by encoder settings

    Hi tomaszt57004329,

    In render encoding settings is only software.

    Are you referring to the Hardware Encoding (HEVC/H.264)?

    Which OS are you on and which processor you have?

    Thanks,

    ofcourse in HEVC/H264 i have only software rendering. In other format i dont have any encoder settings. I have Windows 10 64bit. My procesor is Intel i7-7700K 4.2ghz

    That bit doesn't have anything to do with the GPU, it's just checking to see if the CPU has the particular part/firmware for accelerated processing.
