Cannot use GPU acceleration with 64 bit CS5 under 64 bit Windows 7 with two cards ATI & nVidia

Subject sums up the problem, but here are the details:
My ATI is a 5850, and I have drivers 10.6 installed. That's my primary card connected to my main monitor.
The second card is an nVidia GTS 250 connected to my second monitor with 258.96 drivers.
CS5 does not detect my GPU(s), hence, does not enable GPU acceleration. It says:
"Graphics hardware acceleration is unavailable. You will need to upgrade your video driver and possibly your video card" both of which are obviously wrong, since I have the latest CS5 supporting drivers installed for two cards that can run GPGPU applications!
Any suggestions?
Thank you.

I'm curious about whether the requirement to support HLSL Shader Model 3.0 is a big part of what is holding back GPU acceleration support for ATI cards in Adobe products.  It seems that HLSL Shader Model 3.0 is NVidia/Intel proprietary, whereas GLSL is an open standard like OpenGL.
What ATI support do you find being held back?  Just curious.  I ask because I have a 2 year old ATI 4670 card that supports Photoshop nicely.  The Catalyst software seems to have embraced whatever's necessary to run Photoshop.*

* That said, I see a specific bug where sometimes the 32 bit drivers on my x64 system will not be recognized by Photoshop 32 bit as OpenGL-capable at Photoshop startup.  I've reported it to ATI, and they seem to have taken it seriously, so I expect a fix in a future version.  The 64 bit drivers always satisfy Photoshop's needs, so I'm sure it's not a design deficiency but just a lil' ol' bug.

  • 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."

  • Does LR2 use GPU acceleration?  Other system requirements?

    Does LR2 use GPU acceleration as Photoshop CS4 does?
    Do you think this machine will run LR2 for some time to come:
    Dell Studio with Intel Q9400 quad core; 8GB RAM; 750GB hard disk.
    Currently using integrated graphics, but there is a PCI x16 slot available.

    >Does LR2 use GPU acceleration as Photoshop CS4 does?
    No
    >Do you think this machine will run LR2 for some time to come:
    Yes that's more than beefy enough. To use that 8 gigs, make sure you run 64-bit windows vista on it.

  • 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.

    Help! I cannot see the Airplay symbol on any of my devices anymore!  I have tried following all guides and troubleshooting, but to no avail. Just cannot use the AppleTV with any of my devices.

    Thanks for the link. It didn't work at first on any of the devices but then I decided to enter a manual DNS instead of an automatic configuration. Then followed the steps again from your link and it worked.
    It is not stable though as I need to reset the device for it to see the airplay. But when it is connected it stays connected for 30 minutes approx.
    Any other suggestions to keep it stable would be fantastic but at least in the meantime I have a workaround.
    Thanks

  • GPU acceleration with the nvidia 680M card?

    Should i have GPU acceleration with the nvidia 680M card? i believe the 680 is supported but is the 680M supported? If not, any plans to support this card in the next update?

    I navigated to the cuda support folder and added the Nvidia 680M to the list. The i went to the Nvidia settings and changed the Adobe premiere setting to compatibility mode. Opened my project and began editing. It crashes after a few seconds. 
    I'm also getting this full screen issue that people are talking about. For example, when I minimise premiere to work in another program and go back to premiere when i'm done I get a full screen display of the frame currently in the preview window. This also happens when the computer is inactive for a time. I'll came back to the computer after a few minutes to find the view in full screen. Sometimes a double clip it and it brings back the standard editing workspace but sometimes I have to 'control, alt, delete' to start task manager, open a new window (can be anything) and navigated to that window then back to premiere. It's as if Premiere has frozen.

  • "You cannot use this application with this version of OS X"

    Hi,
    I'm getting this message when I try to open .AVI files that I uploaded from my digital camera, but I'm posting it here instead of in the Quicktime section because I believe that the cause of the problem is more general. When researching this problem, I looked at the info panel for these .AVI files, and the app listed to open them was "Quicktime Player (default) (7.1.3)". But the actual version of Quicktime that I have installed is version 7.4. If I set the file's "Open With" app to be "Quicktime 7.4", it opens fine, but the "Open With" app reverts back to "Quicktime Player (default) (7.1.3)", making the problem come back. I've also noticed that if I right-click on other apps (a PDF file, for example), and choose "Open With" from the popup menu, that I see other versions of apps that no longer exist on my machine (Safari 2.0.4, for example). I think that files associated with these older app versions may be the cause of many of the "You cannot use this application with this version of OS X" issues that have been reported here. My question is where is this list of "installed" products maintained in OS X, and is there a way that I can edit it to remove those product versions that no longer exist on my system. In my particular instance, I'd like to remove "Quicktime 7.1.3" which should allow me to set the associated app for my .AVI files to be Quicktime 7.4 with no possibility of the association reverting to an earlier version that's not only incompatible with Leopard, but also not installed on my system.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    When you associate a file with an application, are you then clicking the "Change All" button? You can rebuild the LaunchServices database. Evidently the location of the command and the database have changed slightly in Leopard from what they were in Tiger. See this thread for the updated instructions:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5730491
    Also, make sure you don't have the old applications archived somewhere. I've been astonished in the past at just how enterprising the system can be in finding some program squirreled away in an obscure backup folder and listing it as an option to open something.

  • How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?

    How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?
    Hi there
    My partner has a works iPad, which has her works Apps on (ones that are specifically made by her company and are NOT available in the App store).
    What I want to be able to do is to ALSO have my itunes account on there so that I can put all the apps I have purchased previously from my iPhone on it.
    This is so I can put on VLC player (thats already in my itunes account) so I can add videos to the iPad.
    How do I do this please?
    I tried it before by connecting it to my mac, but it wiped everything off the iPad completely and also deleted the data settings for using 3G.
    So I want to avoid this happening again the future as it had to be sent back to her head office to be sorted again.
    Any advise please?
    Thanks

    You can't. The iPad is desgined to be a 'one user' device and only really works with one apple ID at a time.
    The only way would be if she, at work and with her work apple id, downloaded your apps (repurchasing them of course).
    It's not meant to be a multiple user/multiple ID device.

    How can one use Mission Control with two monitors.  With Spaces I could treat each space as a single desktop.

    I use two monitors at work and have no issue. I have my mail set to use Desktop 1 and iTunes set to the second monitor of Desktop 1. I have browsers set to Desktop 2 and Fusion and RDC set to Desktop 3.
    Two things that may help you. In System Preferences > Mission Control, disable the setting "Automatically rearrange spaces...". This screwed with assigning applications to certain spaces. And the other thing is don't use full screen on apps that support it. This just makes your second monitor superfluous.

    You can use more than one computer, but you'll have to load your iPod MANUALLY if you do, otherwise it will keep erasing things to match the library it's hooked up to.
