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?

As much as I enjoy delving into my imagination to find answers to technical stuff, I still believe even in the case you have described I should have noticed a serious improvement in total time spent to render a project (the same one) while adding a significantly faster and more capable GPU. Some of the processes you described should have been alot faster and the time allocated to the CPU stay the same, which would have amounted to a change of total time to render.

If thats not the case, there is a serious issue in the program which is causing a mismanagement of resources and inefficient use of hardware components. This is an extremely serious issue and it can save millions of creators alot of time and money spent on just waiting for a render instead of actually working.

This is why I have reached out. There must be an error somewhere, a process not working properly that is keeping the renderer from being efficient in resource management.

@bugam33779908 It seems, you missed a point about bottlenecking. Imagine, your CPU renders frame (his part job in pipeline, to be more precise) in 1 sec, and your prev GPU did its part in 0.02sec. Total time=1.02. Will you notice a difference if your current GPU do it in 0.01, and total time become 1.01 ?

Also check this video, judging by the user comments, it's still valid despite being 6 years old:

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

: https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/premiere-pro-community-digest-november-2022/...

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)
