[ SOLUTION ] Laptop : integrated graphics card detected instead of dedicated

[Cedric224632651s60]

Hello everyone,

Like many of you, I have a laptop with two graphics cards.

• An integrated card : Intel(R) UHD Graphics
• A dedicated card : NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super

However, Adobe Premiere Elements 2021 (2022 seems to work the same) detects the integrated graphics and not the dedicated one !

The problem is that the software browses a file containing a list of supported graphics cards and is case sensitive ... (great developers ... a regex would be welcome)

SOLUTION :
Go in :
"C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Premiere Elements\19.0\Online\Hw Acc Render\All_Lang\HW\Files"
open the file:
allowlisted_cards.txt

Match your card as indicated by Windows

For example:

My graphics card under Windows is: "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super" and in the file allowlisted_cards.txt: "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER"

We rename the line NVIDIA#NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER# to NVIDIA#NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super#

To know the exact writing of your graphics card:
launch the "peripheral manager" list the "graphics cards"

Relaunch the software and ... oh my god she's recognized

PS : This tutorial is only for patching an officially supported graphics card.

See you 😉
