This Effect Requires GPU Accelerartion (AMD)

[sigfried d]

PC Specifications:

• CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 3600xt (6 cores, 12threads 3,8GHz up to 4,5)
• GPU - XFX and Radeon RX 5600xt Thicc III (6Gb DDR6,

  1660MHz up to 1750MHz)

• RAM - Vengeance LPX 16GB (DDR4 3200MHz) 

I am trying to apply the camera blur effect but I'm getting the aforementioned error "watermarked" *1 

on top of the video preview.

I already went to File>Project Settings>General and enabled "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL)".

I have closed and re-opened the project.

Restarted Premiere.

Note: though the "watermark" is still present in the video preview, the effect is rendered and applied to both the video and the...error? *2 I don't understand.

I don't really know how to get around this, I suppose the output will still be rendered correctly but It's quite annoying to have it on top of the preview and, in case I need to check for colors and details, I need a clear view on the scene.

Can you remove the effect and then reapply? If it comes back again, try clearing your media cache.
