"This effect requires gpu acceleration"

Hi, i read a lot about this issue, but still looking for a solution if possible.

I have the Premiere Pro CC 2018 v12.0 on win 10 - NVIDIA GTX 980M.

Now when i scroll through the timeline after adding the "VR Chroma leaks" effect it looks fine - but when i export or render it - i get this error message "This effect requires gpu acceleration" on the video.

I tried turning CUDA off and choosing only memory, i've updated Nvidia drivers. I don't want to reinstall my whole computer just for this effect.

Is there any other solution?

Thank you.

Hello!

From File > Project Settings > General -- Renderer, did you choose one of the Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration options from your computer?

Thank you @premieregal - yes, i did. I tried both options - it doesn't help.

Sometimes on laptops, PrPro only sees the on-board gpu chipset, so it may not actually be seeing the 960m. On some laptops, you can disable the on-board chip when there's a full GPU card installed. If your laptop allows that, disable the on-board graphics.

To make sure ... when you go to the Project Settings dialog, and the Mercury Acceleration option, you do have CUDA available?

Thank you @R Neil Haugen - How do i disable the on-board graphics though?

It varies by laptop, and so might take some searching for if and how on-board graphics can be disabled on your laptop.
