Black Screen (source and preview) when using GPU acceleration (CUDA) [NVidia GTX 780M]

Hi guys!
I am running Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 on Windows 7 (Ult) on a machine equipped with NVidia GTX 780M (4 GB VRAM) graphics card. The source and the preview monitors are both black if I select GPU accelerated rendering. There is a yellow bar above the timeline clips, I can hear the sound tracks, but there is no image. If I choose the Software Only rendering (CPU) then I do see the image as well, but the real-time playback and rendering times are awful!
At first, the application would not allow me to use the GPU acceleration using NVidia’s CUDA processing. Once I entered my video card name in the “cuda_supported_cards.txt” file in the Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 folder I was able to choose between Mercury Playback Engine Software Only and Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration CUDA.
I tried downgrading the video card driver to the previous stable version and reinstall Pr – no go. How do I make Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 work with my NVidia GTX 780M video card?
Your insight is appreciated!
P.S. I used to work on a different machine equipped with NVidia GTX 670M card (which is also missing from the officially supported Pr CS6 cards list) and I never had any issues of this nature with that laptop.

Hi there,
As stated before, I had the same problem. Apparantly the solution for me was to check the Nvidia settings. My setup has both an onboard GPU and a Nvidia GPU (on purpose specifically for video editing and gaming). Normally the system should switch to Nvidia automatically. However, the Nvidia settings for Premiere where set to favor the onboard GPU. After changing this. everything works fine again!
kind regards. Bart

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • How did I get better compression when using GPU acceleration?

    Hello,
         I was just making a short, 1:12-long video encoded as H.264 in an MP4 wrapper. I had edited the video in Premiere Pro CC, and was exporting through Adobe Media Encoder at a framerate of 29.97 FPS and a resolution of 1920x1080. I wanted to do a test to see how much GPU acceleration benefits me. So, I ran two different tests, one with and one without. The one with GPU acceleration finished in 2:09. The one without it took 2:40, definately enough to justify using GPU acceleration (my GPU is an NVidia GTX 660 Ti which I have overclocked). I am sure my benefits would be even greater in most videos I make, since this one had relatively few effects.
    However, I checked the file sizes out of curiosity, and found that the one made with GPU acceleration was 175 MB in size, and the other was 176 MB. While the difference is pretty small, I am wondering why it exists at all. I checked the bitrates, and the one made with GPU acceleration is 19,824 KB/s, whereas the other is 19,966 KB/s. I used the exact same presets for both. I even re-encoded the videos again just to test it and verify the results, and the second test confirms what the first showed.
    So, what I am wondering is: What is it that made this possible, and could this be used to my advantage in future productions?

    As I said in my original post, I did test it again. I have also ran other tests, with other sequences, and they all confirm that the final file is smaller when GPU acceleration is used.
    Yes, the difference is small but I'm wondering how there can even be a variable at all. If you put a video in and have it spit it out, then do that again, the videos should be the same size. It's a computer program, so the outputs are all based on variables. If the variables don't change, the output shouldn't either. For this reason, I cannot believe you when you say "I can, for example, run exactly the same export on the same sequence more than once, are rarely are they identical in export times or file size."

  • AME takes a long time to start encoding when using GPU Acceleration (OpenCL)

    Have had this issue for a while not (current update as well as at least the previous one).
    I switched to using GPU Hardware Acceleration over Software Only rendering. The speed for the actual encoding on my Mac is much faster that software only rendering. However, more often than not, the encoding process seems to stick at 0% waiting to start for a long time, say anywhere from 1 minute to several minutes. Then it will eventually start.
    Can't seem to find what is causing this. Doesn't seem related to any particular project, codec, output format or anything else I can see. I'd like to keep using GPU Acceleration but it's pointless if it takes 5 times as long to even start as rendering by software-only would. It doesn't even pass any elapsed time while it's hanging or waiting. Says at 0 until it starts. Like I said, once it starts, it's a much faster render than what the software would take. Any suggestions? Thanks.
    using an iMac, 3.4Ghz, 24GB RAM, AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048 MB

    Actually, I just discovered it doesn't seem to have anything to do with OpenCL. I just put the rendering back to software only and it is doing the same thing. hangs for a long time before it starts to run. Activity monitor shows it running 85-95% CPU, 17 threads and about 615 MB of memory. Activity Monitor doesn't say its not responding, it just seems kind of idle. It took almost 7 minutes for it to start rendering.
    1- Running version 7.2.2.29 of Media Encoder,
    version 7.2.2 (33) of Premiere.
    2- Yes, a premiere project of HD 1080 source shot with Canon 60D, output to H.264 YouTube 720, fps 23.976
    not sure what you are referring to by native rendering. The rendering setting i tried now is Mercury Playback Engine Software Only if that is what you are referring to. But OpenCL gives me the same issue now.
    3- H.264 YouTube 720, 23,976 - seems to happen on multiple output types
    4- In Premiere, I have my project timeline window selected. Command-M, selected the output location I wanted and what output codec, selected submit to Queue. Media Encoder comes up, the project loads and I select the run icon. It preps and shows the encoding process setup in the "Encoding" window, then just sits there with no "Elapsed" time occurring until almost 5-6 minutes later, then it kicks in.

  • Screen nice and bright when using power thru the adapter

    Hi there
    I am a new macbook user and I am wondering if this is 'normal'. I have two questions about the screen on my macbook.
    When I use the macbook while it is plugged into the wall outlet my screen is nice and bright. If I unplug it, and the battery is fully charged, the screen dims. If I plug it back into to outlet the screen brightens. Is this "normal?"
    Second question. If I am near a lamp or other light source my screen brightens. If the lamp is turned down to a dimmer setting, the screen on my mac dims. Is that normal?
    I'm sorry if these questions sound ridiculous

    Both of Your questions concern System Preferences, the first one You can set in Energy Saver, tag Battery.
    The second You can control in System Preferences, Monitors panel.

  • Black screen on HD monitor when using DVI cable

    Hi there,
    I've recently purchased a Samsung P2270 monitor with the intention of playing HD content from my mac mini, however, it would appear that this isn't possible.
    Connecting it up with a 18pin DVI-D cable doesn't seem to yield anything on the screen. Wondering if it could be a faulty monitor, I tried the DVI-VGA cable instead and thankfully managed to get something on the screen.
    But being human, i'm still set on trying to get 1920x1080 resolution out of my mac mini!
    Checking the display tab within System Preference, it would appear that the maximum resolution option i have on my mac mini is 1280x800. However, I have an Intel GMA 950 graphics card on board, and it should be able to handle HD ie 1920x1080.
    I've got a grandfather of a mac mini - Intel core duo 1.83 GHz, purchased it in 2007. Running Mac OS 10.4.11 Tiger on it.
    Has anyone any experience hooking up a similar mac mini to a HD display with success? Is there any way around this problem? Or am i doomed to looking at black bars on either side of my display till i upgrade?
    I'd be grateful for any advice/suggestions

    Welcome to  Discussions!
    Looking at the specs of your monitor, I see that the connection is listed as a DVI-I connection. You should try a suitable cable before giving up.

    How can I use both, Windows PC and iMac, when using WiFi?. It is either-or. What can I do?

    What does this have to do with using an iPad?
    But yes, you should be able to connect to your home WiFi network with multiple computers and devices. In my house my wife, my daughter and I will all be using the WiFi Internet connection at the same time with our Laptops and I will also be using my iPad, my daughter uses her iPhone, and we have no issues at all.
