Premiere Pro won't use my GPU

[benjamint91291284]

Whenever I try to render or export in premeire, it barley uses any of my GPU. I recently got a new desktop that was supposed to be much faster than my old laptop and i always have problems rendering or exporting in premiere, I'm working with 4k footage and using a lot of effects but i feel like my computer should be able to handle it. I contstantly get Error code: -1609629695 if i try to export anyhting that isnt just basic footage with no effects

Please help

You need to fix whatever is on the timeline at the given time in the error message.

Best is to delete section from project, rename, import and do it again.

i dont undertand, i need that section of the video 

[Ann Bens]

You delete clip (or whatever) from project.

you rename this clip on hdd,

you import this renamed clip,

you re-edit the clip in the timeline.

You might try exporting in 1080p. Scaling the framesize kicks the GPU into action. Many things don't. So, it uses the GPU for certain things. Otherwise not.

Your computer should kick some serious booty! What codecs are you using? What are the stats for your computer? The video below should give you an idea of what to expect. You should try Quick Sync and Nvenc both. Having said that a GPU driver update might help. You could also have had a bad Premiere Pro update causing problems.

Hy, I'm having the same problems and watching this video i've found out that no matter what settings I use my computer wont use the GPU neither for reproducing the videos or processing them in the timeline.

I have:

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-13400 CPU @ 2.5GHz, 10Core(s)

AMD Radeon RX6600 6gb

16gb RAM

Any ideas for why is this happening?

Thank you for your advice.

The GPU isn't just an extension of the CPU. It's a different tool. And in Premiere is used mainly for effects with color or resizing involved, as is stated in the documentation.

Where you have color, tonal, or sizing changes it will use the GPU as it gets to it. Otherwise, it won't.

There's a list of GPU Accelerated Effects.

So, are you doing color changes or resizing?

[Jan3096898874l5]

I had this template that had a lot of effects in it, so the timeline appeared red, meaning it had to be rendered to be able to work with it properly. When I was rendering that sequense my computer was only using the CPU. Is it supposed to do that or should it use the GPU too.

Tank you.

Again, what effects were used? As I wrote above, the specific effects matter.

[Jan3096898874l5]

I cannot know, it's a Storyblocks template so I can't see, or I don't know how. Sorry if I don't understand 😞

[R Neil Haugen]

Have you looked at the Effects Control Panel?

[Jan3096898874l5]

Yes, and there's no effect. So I can't see. But even just reproducing the video it shows me the CPU working and not the GPU which is what should happen according to the video.

[R Neil Haugen]

As I have no idea what effects or processes the Storyblock template uses, I can't estimate how much GPU use that stuff will have.

Again, GPU use depends on specific Premiere Pro effects being in use.

Ok, thank you very much.
