Does Lightroom2 render from the graphics card or the processor?

I have a PowerPC G4. My graphics card is a GeForce4 MX. I recently purchased a Radeon 9600 Pro Graphics Card. If I install this will it significantly improve my rendering speed in LR2? Or, does LR2 do most of it's rendering from the processor? Thanks for the advice.

I use and on-board IGP. After installing a dedicated PCI-E Radeon 2400 XT, I, well, have not noticed any difference at all, even in UI eye-candy effects smoothness.

  • Does Premiere Pro 2 use graphics card for playback?

    Does Premiere Pro 2 use graphics card for playback? I am using a 350W PSU, so my nVidia 6600GT runs in low-power mode, and my video playback in Premiere is choppy. The same .avi files play fine in a media player, so it can't be a disc issue I guess... Please advise, thank you!

    Only the latest CS5 uses SELECTED card's GPU for video acceleration
    >same .avi files play fine in a media player
    Playback is not at all the same as editing
    Use the FREE http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ to find out what codec is inside that AVI wrapper
    Anything other than DV AVI type 2 with 48khz sound is not going to do well in Premiere

    Apparantly it is, On My Mac contacts don't appear in iCloud, anywhere.
    Put all your contacts on all of your devices in iCloud (assuming that's where you want them to be)
    Go to www.icloud.com, login and see what you actually have in the account.

    Hi
    Logic Studio is not available anymore, so unless you can find an "old stock" copy somewhere, you will never be able to upgrade in the future.
    Logic Pro 9 has all the content from the Studio box available for download, with the exception of the 20G of Soundtrack Pro content. Soundtrack Pro is no longer available at all.
    Logic Studio also contained several other applications: Mainstage, Compressor (available separately from the AppStore), Waveburner (no longer available), plus some other utilities.

I have registered correctly. I have turned off my AVG virus protection and tried to update my software, still the Application Manager gives the same response.

    If you don't want to download the updates manually, then you need to update your Application Manager.  The relevant links are here:

  • Does Adobe Illustrator need a Graphics Card? [will MacBook run it ??]

    Hi.. I am Basically trying to find out if Adobe Illustrator requires a Graphics Card?? as the MacBook does not have one but the MacBook Pro does...Can I get away with a MacBook Core 2 Duo with 2Gb Ram to run Illustrator or should I get the MacBook Pro with the Dedicated Graphics Card ??? Any help from designers/Illustrator experts who use Adobe Illustrator would be very helpful Thanks v.much...jason

    Here's the system requirements for Illustrator.
    Just because it deals with graphics it doesn't necessarily means it taxes the video card/onboard graphics. Most of the time when people are concerned about the GMA950 they're confusing tasks that are far more CPU intensive than GPU intensive.

  • Does CS5 require a discrete graphics card?

    My computer has a Core 2 Duo and 3GB of memory, but only onboard graphics. The CS5 Design Premium system requirements include "qualified hardware-accelerated OpenGL graphics card, 16-bit colour, and 256MB VRAM". Does this mean I cannot run CS5? Or does it just mean that if I want the benefits of a graphics card, the card must meet those requirements?
    I expected to be able to answer this question myself with a bit of web searching, but haven't been able to! Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Bob, I'll go ahead and try it. As it happens, Photoshop is the part of the suite I anticipate using the least.
    It's a shame the literature is unclear, though — I understand "requirements" to mean exactly that: a minimal specification without which the software will refuse to install. A graphics card could be on a separate "recommended" list.

  • Audio 12bit and  preference to change from 16bit & Graphic Card issues

    I taped at 12bit audio and now while capturing to FCP after every clip I capture I get "Audio sample rated does not match source tape" I looked under my choices for Sequence presets and all I find is 16 bit. How can I switch this so I am supposedly synced and avoid the warning dialog box? My present settings are DV NTSC 48 kHz. I use a sony vx2000 with mini DV tapes. Of course next time I tape I will use 16bit audio to avoid this if I can't make the change.
    Also has Apple resolved the deal with FCP using more than one Graphics card or do I have to remove two of the three Graphics cards just to use FCP still? Thanks all.

    12-bit is 32k. 16-bit is 48k. If you shot in 32k you have to capture in 32k. Using the 48k default preset in FCP will produce the error message you see and make your audio drift out of sync, You have to create a custom capture preset that is set to 32k audio. In A.V Settings select the DV preset and duplicate it. In the lower right change the audio sample rate to 32k. Do the same for your sequence preset. Capture your media using the 32k preset and edit in the matching sequence.
    In future change all your cameras to 16-bit so you record audio at 48k. That's the standard not 32k, despite it being the default for most consumer cameras.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 Organiser does not start from the welcome screen

    Having installed Photoshop Elements 11(Windows 7)  I cannot open the Organiser from the welcome screen. It can be opened via the Editor but few of the thumbnails are shown as pictures rather as empty squares. The situation does not improve with time but tends to get worse with pictures turning into squares. I have tried the tip with preferences but to no avail. I would be very grateful for some help. Best Regards Ian Tomlinson

    Try pressing Ctrl+A (to select all thumbnails) and then refresh again (Edit >> Update Thumbnails for selected items). If that makes no difference you may need to regenerate the cache.
    It may be worth rebuilding the thumbnail cache before re-installing. Click the menu:
    Help >> System info to find the path to your catalog.
    1. Close Organizer.
    2. Navigate to C: ProgramData/Adobe/Elements Organizer/Catalogs/My Catalog
    3. Find the file - thumb.5.cache
    4. Highlight the file and delete it.
    5. Re-start Elements Organizer
    6. Wait until all thumbnails have been generated.

  • Phone makes "morse code" sound when in use, not all the time but quite frequently. The sound does not come from the speakers, infact it comes from the comments inside the phone.

    When in use my phone makes a quiet buzzing noise coming not from the speakers but the actual phone. It does not do it all the time but it is quite frequent, my phone is an iPhone 5. Please can you tell me what the problem  is?

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have it evaluated by the techs there. This is not normal and is probably not something that a user can fix.

  • Battery does not charge from the iPhone charger

    i have same problem with my iphone 4 and the etisalat provide me with new iphone 4 within same day i find also the new iphone have same problem it take me more than a month for replacement and now i start again to make complain and i do not know how long with take to replace the i pphone i ask the apple to request from etisalat to speed the process to replace i like apple products i phone , ipad,ipod... i hope you can help me to keep your product number one in uae market

    Try rebooting the iPhone, hold both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appears.
    The iPhone 5 should charge from the iPad charger, doing the reverse doesn't work, however.
    Leave it on the charger for a couple hours and if it still does not indicate increased battery charge, take it to an Apple store genius bar and have it checked.
