Graphics card not used in timeline render

[RonaldCz]

I noticed when rendering the timeline the graphic card is not being used. I have high CPU and RAM but nothing on Graphic card in Taskmaster performance. Is the computer using all it's resources?

Mercury Playback Engine is enabled.

Please provide more info:

- Source footage origin and properties (codec, resolution, framerate)

- Same for timeline plus what effects are applied and what is the color of the timeline render bar

- Export settings

- Load numbers for CPU and GPU during render and export

- GPU driver version

PrPro uses the GPU as a separate item. It's not just an addendum to the CPU. So certain things are sent to the CPU, certain things to GPU if available. If you're doing color work, Warp, several things like that, the GPU will be used a lot more than it is for basic pixel decoding.

But even that varies depending on which CPU you have. It used to be a lot simpler to figure out what was CPU and what was GPU work. But with the way some CPUs have different encoding capabilities for say H.264 than others, it's almost bizarre the number of options for how it's processed now.

Sorry Ronald. We can answer your questions by giving us more info about your media, effects you used, sequence settings, etc. Short answer is that not everything uses the GPU. Let us know, OK?
