Question

"Render Effects In to Out" no longer available when using CUDA?

Before Premiere Pro 25.1 I believe I have been able to render effects in to out to speed up my timeline (by pre-rendering heavy fx sections), but my new project in 25.1 does not let me do this unless i use software playback. Worsening the issue, some sections of effects have errors and bugs in software rendering but not CUDA, and vice versa (errors in CUDA rendering but not software). This currently requires me to alternate back and forth between playback methods, pre-rendering effects with software for the CUDA errors and chugging with CUDA through the software errors. I attempted to use an older version of Premiere Pro, but was informed when launching the project in Premiere Pro 24.6.4 that because the project was created on a newer version, it is not compatible with an older version leaving me no way to test my problems on an older version.

 

Version: Premiere Pro 25.1

Plugins: Red Giant Universe

Issue: Effects bugs when whether using software or CUDA playback; can't pre-render effects in CUDA

Hardware: Ryzen 9 5950X, 64gb RAM, RTX 3090, all Software/Media/FX are stored on Samsung/Crucial SSDs

 

To be clear, I understand the root of this issue is likely Red Giant; very heavy effects are being stacked so I'm not shocked that I'm facing performance issues, but before now I had been able to work around this. Having to alternate playback methods every other clip is taking ages and is not a cure-all for the bugs I'm experiencing.

In your timeline, is there a red line above your clips or a yellow line? If it is yellow, hit Shift+Enter to completely render the timeline In to Out. Hitting "Enter" will only render clips that have effects on them (indicated by a red bar in your timeline). Shift+Enter will render every clip in your timeline, regardless of if they have effects applied. I understand you have red giant applied, but try rendering a short portion of your project with Shift+Enter instead and see if that works.

Whether I click directly on "Render Effects In to Out" or hit enter, the timeline simply plays as normal. In and Out are set and the option is not greyed out, it's just kind of ignored. I was mostly just rolling back versions to test if it was only something I was dealing with post-update, so I probably won't put too much effort into down-converting the project as I don't think it will benefit me actually completing it.

 

Worth noting I figured out which effect was causing specific issues all across the timeline (Holomatrix II; no huge shocker there as I hear of it bugging out from people often, I had just been lucky to not have many issues previously).

When you say it is not allowing you, do you mean the option is greyed out and can't actually be accessed, or does it start to render then fail?
