GPU Hardware Acceleration not enabled

I have a 3080TI and Adobe Media Encoder/Adobe Premier are not using it to render even if Hardware accelaration is enabled. Its a major problem, cause i'm sure rendering with it will be 100% faster than with the cpu (9900k)

You have a great graphics card for 3D work.  For video editing, it just isn't as important.

What is your output format? And what colorspace are you outputting in?

 

Also, what codec and colorspace is your imported footage shot in?

So the problem has nothing to do with Premiere Pro, because actually you are exporting AE project... 


You asked me for this particular project, I answered specific on this. Let me be clear, i have not noticed any GPU enhanced (With task manager on, watching the load of the gpu) performance on any of these programs, AE or AME. It takes me the same amount of time to render the same kind of project on this GPU as it did on my former. (I now run a 3080TI and I had a 2070 Super, both on a 32GB DDR4 3200Mhz, 9900K i9)

Even though "hardware encoding" is ticked on... it doesn't do actually anything. The CPU is proritized in everything. And as I was asked the question earlier, the project does have effects considered as needed to be processed by the GPU, like gaussian blur for example. Funny thing is, in Premier Pro, in the simplest projects ever, like just changing the bitrate of a video (compressing it), it actually uses the GPU, at least that...

Also, this nvidia studio driver is very old compared to the newest game ready driver and for me as a content creator, it is extremely punishing to use something like this. Makes no sense whatsoever

Hello, most reports these last days are about problems with the most recent nVidia drivers.

  • NVIDIA GPU Drivers causing hangs on import and unexpected behavior: Some editors have reported problems with the NVIDIA Studio Drivers v.526.98. Roll back the drivers to v.522.xx or earlier to restore system stability.

I think it goes beyond just drivers. I would really like this fixed because it means an extreme amount of time is lost because of the lack of interaction between the GPU/CPU and software. 

I just updated to 527.37 / clean install, restarted pc ... still nothing. The renderer prioritises the CPU instead of the GPU even though its set to use the hardware renderer

Do a clean installation of the 517.40 Studio Driver (NOT the Game Driver)
