Intel QuickSync and NVENC in Premiere Pro 14.2 and exporting video.

[santacIous]

Hi.

I have an i7-11700K processor with iGPU and Intel QuicSync.
I also have a graphics card Nvida RTX 3080. 

I wonder if it is true that only NVENC is used as it is in this video and there is no way to switch to QuickSync even if iGPU is also used.

2:50

It's going to use the Nvidia graphics card. It will not give you the option to use the Intel's QuickSynck, even though I do have Intel's integrated graphics processor enabled.

Moved to hardware forum.

The setting was completely missing from version 14.2. Because of this, there have been severe issues if the discrete GPU, especially from Nvidia, completely lacked a hardware encoder such as the GT 1030. The only fix for this would have been to manually switch all exporting to software encoding.

The hardware encoder selection became available with version 14.4. NVENC remains the default with supported Nvidia GPUs, but somewhere in the Preference settings you must manually make the selection on first launch whether to use Nvenc (default) or QuickSync.

So which is used in version 14.5 when exporting as in this video.

[Ann Bens]

Why are you using such old versions?

[santacIous]

I am using the latest version.

The version doesn't matter. 14.4. 14.5 or 14.6

I am asking what is used. Intel Quick Sync or Nvida NVENC when exporting.

Just like in the video.

Is there any reason why you didn't update to version 15 or version 22?

If your installation of the Creative Cloud desktop applet won't let you update past 14.6, you will need to update the Creative Cloud desktop applet before you will begin to see newer versions.

[santacIous]

I'm not asking for an upgrade. I have the latest version 22.

[santacIous]

I have Intel with quick sync and Nvida with NVENC. 
How to choose between Intel Quick Sync and Nvida NVENC? in the export settings like Davinci Resolve?

You have to go to the menu bar and select preferences. Then select media. You will then have the option to use Quick Sync or Nvenc. This is demonstrated in the second video you posted. Whichever one you select will be used for encoding (rendering) and decoding (playback). I stated that in the video. It really is that simple. 

[santacIous]

So why is iGPU also used?

[Andy 1968]

The Quick Sync module is part of the iGPU. 

[santacIous]

But Nvidia and NVENC are chosen.

You need to watch the video again. I used Nvenc and then I later switched to Quick Sync. You must have missed that part. At the very end neither Nvenc or Quick Sync are used and the CPU gets hit hard. Everything is working 100% correct. That being said I thought you originally wanted to know how to switch between Nvenc and Quick Sync and now you know.

But in

It's going to use the Nvidia graphics card. It will not give you the option to use the Intel's QuickSynck, even though I do have Intel's integrated graphics processor enabled.

Why is the integrated graphics also used?

[Andy 1968]

My bad. I thought you were looking at the video below. It is newer than the one you watched. I stated in the video you watched that I was using a beta version. A lot of things have changed since then. The video below will explain everything. I did not noticed the titles of the two videos are very similar. That is why I got confused.

The video below will explain everything.

Doesn't explain one.

[Andy 1968]

The video explains what CUDA acceleration is and what encoding and decoding is. For decoding you can use the CPU or the GPU. You can try different settings and see the results and decide what option works best for your system. What more are you expecting? 

[santacIous]

I am expecting what and how is used when intel and Nvidia is selected. Just like in the picture.
Is QuickSync? or NVENC ? Or CUDA ? or what?

[Andy 1968]

In my video I demonstrated how selecting the different options will affect the CPU and GPU. You stated you have an i7-11700K processor and an Nvida RTX 3080. You can try changing the setting on your own system just like I did in the video and see what works best for you using your computer. It really is that easy. 

[santacIous]

I was lying. I don't have an i7-11700K processor and an Nvidia RTX 3080.

Can you record a video where it is shown what and how is used when intel and Nvidia is selected. Just like in the picture?

[Andy 1968]

I have a lot of other videos I need to make.
