Laptop with Nvidia gt750m. Sufficient for real time playback in Premiere CS6?

I'm on the verge of buying a new laptop with the following specs:
i7 4700MQ
16GB RAM @ 1600 mhz
1TB 7200 rpm drive
120 GB SSD
Nvidia GT750m GPU
15.6 inch IPS display
I'm sure these specs will be more than sufficient for editing and grading Full HD DSLR clips in Premiere CS6. The only bottleneck in this system might be the GPU, which isn't all that great and has only GDDR3 memory.
Now I'm not planning to do any gaming on it, so I'm just wondering if this graphics card will be sufficient for realtime playback in Premiere after applying the hardware accelerated effects.
This is done solely by the GPU right? This card should be supported for hardware acceleration, but will it be powerful enough?
Unfortunately, there is no other setup possible in this price range that has a better GPU and still has a IPS screen.
Anyone has any experience with this card and the Mercury playback engine?
Thanks!

Looks OK.

  • Is vision development module in labview 8.6. sufficient for real-time image acquisition and analysis using a webcam

    Hi, 
    I'm new to labview and trying to develop an eye-tracker using labview 8.6. It has the vision development module and i was wondering if this was sufficient for real-time image acquisition and processing or would i be needing any other software tools.
    Solved!

    Hello, certainly it is possible and sufficient for real-time tracking!
    About eye tracking - if you need an example, you can find the code here:
    https://decibel.ni.com/content/blogs/kl3m3n/2013/10/08/real-time-face-and-eye-detection-in-labview-u...
    The code uses OpenCV functionalities along with the LabView UI (and some other functions like overlay).
    Hope this helps a bit.

  • "Waiting for real-time target (RT PXI target) to respond" error when the program waits interrupts

    Hi there,
    I have developed an application to detect interrupts generated by a electronic card and act in consequence. The program has been developed in labview but it calls a dll; that was created with labwindows. The dll is programmed to open the visa communication, enable events and install the interrupt handler and when an interrupt is detected, it reads the value of the different registers of the card and returns it to labview to visualize them. 
    The problem is that when the program waits for an interrupt, a prompt appears with the message "Waiting for real-time target (RT PXI target) to respond" and the only option I have is to click on the button to disconnect from the pxi or just wait. If I wait and I generate an interrupt, the prompt disappears and the application visualize the data like it was expected. 
    To wait for the interrupt the following code has been programmed in the function:
                    while (flag == 0)
                                    Sleep (1000);
    When an interrupt occurs, the value of flag changes to 1 and the function continue without any problem. I am not really sure, but probably here is the problem and probably this is not the best way to wait for an interrupt because the sleep function suspends the thread for the configured time, but at least the computing load in the PXI is between 0% and 1%. I was wondering if somebody knows how to wait for an interrupt without "lost" the communication with the PXI and if there is a better way to do it. 
    Any answer will be welcome and thanks for them,
    Jaime
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello Naity,
    First of all, in which thread runs the waiting process? Is it scheduled in another thread than the function setting the flag?
    It scheduled in the same thread that I use to configure the communications and configure the card. Anyway, here is the pseudo code of the function interrupt that I programmed under labwindows,.
    char* interrupt(void)
    1. Open visa communications
    2.Install handler interrupt --> status = viInstallHandler (instr, VI_EVENT_PXI_INTR, IntrHandler, VI_NULL);   // the function IntrHandler will be called when an interrupt occurs
    3. Enable event PXI interrupt
    4. Wait
    while (flag == 0)
                  Sleep (1000);
    5. Visualize the data coming from the interrupt (registers and values measured with the card)
    6. Uninstall handler interrupt
    7. Close visa session
    The interrupt handler function IntrHandler is called immediately when an interrupt occurs and the pseudo code is like this
    ViStatus _VI_FUNCH IntrHandler(ViSession instr, ViEventType etype, ViEvent event, ViAddr userhandle)
    1. Disable some functions of the card to avoid damages. 
    2. Read registers and put them in a buffer
    3. Change the value of flag ---> flag = 1;
    In labview, I call the function interrupt with a call library function node (see the capture attached) and the program reads and saves the data from returned from the function.
    Secondly, I am not sure this method is the most elegant. You could for example register an event with the function and, insteand of setting a flag to 1, trigger the event and schedule it in another thread (if the function is thread safe). This could reduce your CPU Load even more and seem a bit cleaner to me.
    I've never used events before in labwindows but I will try to do it in this way. But anyway, I suppose that I should; somehow, wait the event to occurs in labview while the waiting for the event is programmed inside the dll...and probably the same prompt that i am trying to avoid is going to appear again, because I am not returning the "control" to labview (I mean, labview executes the dll and waits for the event to occur. Then the execution of the labview program is stopped in the call library function node executing the dll)
    Third point, which environment of development are you using?
    I am working with LV 2010 sp1 and Labwindows cv 10.0.1 and with the real time module.
    I did also another test, I divided the program in different functions, one to initialize the communication, another to wait until a interrupt has been detected and the other to obtain the data from the interrupt and close communications. With labview I call first with the call library function node the function to initialize, later I call inside a while loop the wait function like this
    int waitAseconds (double seconds, short stop_waiting)
    if(flag==1 || stop_waiting == 1)
    flag = 1; //to detect the stop_waiting button
    printf("flagAA =1 stop waiting = %d time = %d\n", stop_waiting, clock());
    return flag;
    else
    SleepUS(seconds*1000000);
    //a++;
    printf("flag a= %d stop waiting = %d time = %d\n", flag, stop_waiting, clock());
    return flag;
     and when the program detects an interrupt, the function returns to labview the flag and stops the loop. Finally, it reads the values and close communications. 
    In this way, the prompt appears but after running the application for 10 or 20 minutes and also i checked that there is a time gap between the executions in the loop.
    Thanks for your reply and your help,
    Jaime

  • FI CO Integation: Document type for real-time integration with FI not there

    Dear Gurus,
    This is the error message that I got and I am looking for a solution could anyone help me please.
    I was doing simultaneous costing and doing Product Cost Collector reports.[KKBC_PKO]
    This is IDES 6.00 ehancement package 4,
    How do I define a document type for real-time integration with FI?
    Message no. FAGL_COFI003
    "Diagnosis: For CO documents to be transferred into Financial Accounting in company code 1000, -the system requires a document type".
    How do I go about with this, need steps to resolve this please
    Thank you
    Saleem

    Hi,
    1. Check which variant is assigned to your company code '1000' using this IMG path
    IMG->Financial Acctg (New)->Financial actg global settings (New) ->Real-Time integration of Controlling with Financial Actg ->Assign variants for Real-time Integration to Company codes.
    2. Check if document type is assigned to the variant assigned to your Company code in this path:
    IMG->Financial Acctg (New)->Financial actg global settings (New) ->Real-Time integration of Controlling with Financial Actg -> Define Variants for Real-Time Integration.
    Hope this helps.

  • Pxi 1042 configuration for Real-Time

    I have purchased
    PXI-1042
    controller 8187
    one module for data capturing.
    I want to configure the said pxi for Real-Time purposes,
    so what steps should I follow?
    thanks
    Abbas
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The Real-Time Deployment License is different from the LabVIEW RT module.
    When you purchase a PXI controller, part of what you are buying is the operating system that is installed on it.  If you purchased the controller with Windows on it then you purchased the copy of Windows that came with it.  Now that you want to put the real-time operating system on it, you need to purchase the license for it.
    But that's all legal stuff.
    And you are correct that there is a copy of the RTOS on the controller.  But if your controller has its disk formatted as NTFS you will not be able to use it.   The RTOS requires that the hard drive be FAT32. 
    If your controller is FAT32 then you can boot into BIOS (hit delete while booting), and select Real-Time in the Boot Configuration to make your controller boot into Real-Time.
    If you controller is not FAT32 then you will need to format the controller first, using the disks I have previously mentioned.
    Please let me know if you have any questions.

  • MAX support of SNTP for Real-time controller​s

    Hey everyone,
    I have some PXI systems that allow me to enter a Time Server IP address directly into the MAX setup for the device but I have some other PXI chassis that don't. Does this have to do with the version of Real-time they are running? Can anyone tell me what version of RT and MAX started supporting Time Servers natively through MAX for real-time controllers?
    Thanks,
    Craig

    Hi craige,
    It looks like SNTP synchronization is not fully supported for PXI systems:
    http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Configuring-PXI-81​84-controller-to-synchronize-to-SNTP-server/td-p/1​...
    However, for CompactRIO, synchronization with SNTP servers began with LabVIEW Real-Time 8.6:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/F2B057C72B5​37EA2862572D100646D43
    The forum post I linked above does have some links to customer created examples relating to NTP and SNTP Time Servers.
    Please note that those examples are both unsupported and a little bit on the older side.

  • Defining Account Determination for Real-Time Integr

    Dear all,
    I haven't understood yet about Account determination for the real-time integration of Controlling (CO) with Financial Accounting (FI).
    Please tell accounting process that use this account. And give me a detail example.
    Thanks so much
    Minhtb

    Hello
    This is the new feature in New GL accounting
    During allocations in Controlling, most of the postings created do not affect Financial Accounting. These postings do not update any G/L account transaction figures; they are postings within Controlling. If, however, an allocation in Controlling leads to a change in the functional area or any other characteristic (such as Profit Center or Segment) that is relevant for evaluations in Financial Accounting, a shift occurs between the affected items in the profit and loss statement. For this reason, this information has to be transferred to Financial Accounting. This reconciliation between Controlling and Financial Accounting takes place by means of real-time integration.
    As a result of real-time integration, all Controlling documents that are relevant for General Ledger Accounting are transferred from Controlling to General Ledger Accounting in real time. This means that Financial Accounting is always reconciled with Controlling.
    A document is created in Financial Accounting for each posting in Controlling. This means that the detailed information contained in the CO documents is always available in reports in New General Ledger Accounting. This information can be sorted by the following, for example:
    ●     Functional area
    ●     Cost center
    ●     Internal order
    Real-time integration replaces the reconciliation postings from the reconciliation ledger. Consequently, you do not need a reconciliation ledger.
    If, however, you do not set the Reconciliation Ledger Active indicator in Customizing for the controlling area, you cannot use the reports belonging to report groups 5A* (5AA1-5AW1). You set this indicator in Customizing for Controlling under General Controlling ® Organization ® Maintain Controlling Area. The reconciliation ledger serves as the data source for reports belonging to the report groups 5A*. You find these reports in the SAP Easy Access menu under Accounting ® Controlling ® Cost Element Accounting ® Information System ® Reports for Cost and Revenue Element Accounting.
    Replacement reports are available as follows:
    ●     You find the reports in the SAP Easy Access menu under Accounting ® Controlling ® Cost Element Accounting ® Information System ® Reports for Cost and Revenue Element Accounting (New).
    ●     You can create additional reports in report group 5A21. You can assign the report group to any drilldown report of New General Ledger Accounting using the report-report interface.
    ●     From the report Financial Statements Actual/Actual Comparison, you can call up the report Cost Elements: Breakdown by Company Code. You find the report Financial Statement: Actual/Actual Comparison in the SAP Easy Access menu under Accounting ® Financial Accounting ® General Ledger ® Information System ® General Ledger Reports (New) ® Balance Sheet/Profit and Loss Statement/Cash Flow ® General ® Actual/Actual Comparisons.
    You can define account determination for each controlling area. You do this in Customizing for Financial Accounting (New) under Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) ® Ledgers ® Real-Time Integration of Controlling with Financial Accounting ® Account Determination for Real-Time Integration. In this way, you use the same account determination as for the reconciliation ledger (transaction OK17). You can then use the reconciliation ledger reports to compare FI balances with CO balances.
    Prerequisites
    If you use real-time integration in at least one company code, you need to have activated company code validation for the related controlling area. You do this in Customizing for Controlling under General Controlling ® Organization ® Maintain Controlling Area ® Activate Components/Control Indicators. Otherwise, the reconciliation between Financial Accounting and Controlling at company code level is not possible.
    In Customizing for Financial Accounting (New), you have processed the IMG activities under Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) ® Ledgers ® Real-Time Integration of Controlling with Financial Accounting.
    Activate real-time integration for all company codes between which you want to make CO-internal allocations.
    In the IMG activity Define Variants for Real-Time Integration, do not select all CO line items for transfer. If the same line items are to be transferred as through the reconciliation posting from the reconciliation ledger, select the following line items:
    ●      Cross-Company Code
    ●      Cross-Business Area
    ●      Cross-Functional Area
    ●      Cross-Fund (if you use Public Sector Management)
    ●      Cross-Grant (if you use Public Sector Management)
    Features
    Value flows within Controlling that are relevant for General Ledger Accounting – such as assessments, distributions, confirmations, and CO-internal settlements – are transferred immediately. The FI documents are posted with the business transaction COFI. They contain the number of the CO document. This means that you can call up the CO document from the FI document, and vice versa.
    Activities
    If a document could not be transferred because the posting period was blocked in Financial Accounting or no account was found, for example, the document is included in a postprocessing worklist. You need to check this worklist regularly and process any documents in it. From the SAP Easy Access menu, choose Accounting ® Financial Accounting ® General Ledger ® Corrections ®Post CO Documents to FI.
    Example
    An internal order for business area 0001 is settled to a cost center of business area 0002. The document from this allocation is transferred in real time to Financial Accounting.

    The online spec sheets indicate the speeds necessary for running as seperate apps,
    but not for real time from withing FCP5...at least, not the ones I can find.
    Thanks.

    Where did you encounter the promise of real time in FCP?
    Can't be done AFAIK.
    Even if possible, you'd only get a few misleading preview frames.

  • FCP Real Time Playback

    I want to do real time playback of a FCP project from my MacBook Pro, and it appears my new Matrox MX02 Mini box will allow an HDMI output of my 720p60 project from the MacBook Pro. Pretty cool. What are your best suggestions for encoding a reliable playback product? Compress to an MPG2 program stream? Make an HD Quicktime? Or....? Bye bye 480 DVD's!

    David, if I could ask your setup for a QT playback out of the DVI port on the MacBook Pro:
    1) You take the DVI output into a DVI monitor, or do you use a DVI-to-HDMI cable?
    2) Audio is from the quarter-inch jack on the MacBook Pro?
    3) Can you achieve good 720p?

  • I bought this MacBook Pro 15.4" 1.83 GHz MA463LL/A with 2gb of RAM for real cheap on eBay because I'm poor and can't afford a new MACBOOK PRO and was wondering what everyone thinks about these laptops and what can and should I upgrade when I get money?

    I bought this older MACBOOK PRO 15.4" 1.83 GHz with 2gb of RAM and Leopard 10.5 on eBay for real cheap because I don't have the money to buy a new one like I would like to  do, and it comes with a disk to upgrade the OS to 10.6 and I was wondering what all I can and should upgrade (short of the whole computer) as I have the money to do so? Or did I just get really hosed?

    You have the original Core Duo model. 2 GBs is the most RAM you can install, so the only thing you could upgrade would be the hard drive. Doing so is not a trivial task but you can find suitable hard drives and installation tutorials at OWC.
    Since yours is a Core Duo model you can upgrade OS X to Snow Leopard, but not to Lion which requires a Core 2 Duo or better.

    Hi Karol,
    Thank you for the suggestion. I read the wiki Nvidia#No_screens_found_on_a_laptop.2FNVIDIA_Optimus .
    It says "On a laptop, if the NVIDIA driver cannot find any screens, you may have an NVIDIA Optimus setup : an Intel chipset connected to the screen and the video outputs, and a NVIDIA". This seems to be the case for my latop.
    The wiki suggests three options to get around the problem:
    1) NVIDIA drivers now offer Optimus support since 319.12 Beta [[3]] with kernels above and including 3.9.
    2) Another solution is to install the Intel driver to handle the screens
    3) Enter the BIOS and changed the default graphics setting from 'Optimus' to 'Discrete' and the install NVIDIA drivers
    I tried them all:
    1) I had NVIDIA driver version 337 installed, but I don't know how to turn on Optimus support
    3) I check my bios settings, but there is no such option
    2) I removed the nvidia drivers and then installed intel drivers. I removed /etc/x11/xorg.conf
    startx now find screens. I guess there is no 2d or 3d acceleration, but it works
    Thank you
    Sjoerd
