GPU acceleration for command line renderer?

Hello,
is it possible to use CUDA for batch rendering with many projects over the command line tool aerender ?
Would a nVidia TESLA GPU significantly increase the performance? Or are only the 570/580 and Quadro GPUs supported?
kind regards

No.
The GPU matters hardly at all for After Effects. After Effects doesn't use CUDA at all, and primarily uses OpenGL for a low-fidelity preview renderer. Don't waste your time thinking about the GPU for After Effects.

  • Warning that the GPU accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer does not have enough free memory to operate

    [UPDATE: Memory handling for the ray-traced 3D renderer is greatly improved by installing the After Effects CC (12.2) or After Effects CS6 (11.0.4) update.]
    You may see a warning message when using After Effects CC (12.1) that the GPU accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer does not have enough free memory to operate.
    When the GPU acceleration of the ray-traced 3D renderer is disabled, the CPU version of the ray-traced 3D renderer will operate.
    The message about the GPU-accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer not having enough free memory to operate is because of a change in After Effects CC (12.1) to actually warn you when your computer was in a dangerously low VRAM state. In After Effects CC (12.0) and After Effects CS6 (11.0), a computer with very little VRAM could still try to use the GPU accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer, but it would very, very, very often crash. So, now, After Effects CC (12.1) is just detecting the condition that would lead to a crash, telling you about it, and disabling the GPU acceleration until you have dealt with the problem.
    So, how do you deal with this low-memory condition? You free up VRAM. This means closing all applicaitons that use GPU memory, which includes web browsers (yes, web browsers these days use the GPU). It also means disconnecting additional monitors, each of which uses a lot of VRAM. In some cases, restarting the computer is necessary.
    This is primarily a problem on Mac OS with cards with 1GB of VRAM, such as the GT 650M in the MacBook Pro. These cards on this OS have just barely enough GPU memory (VRAM) to make use of the GPU-accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer under even the best of circumstances. If you want to use the GPU-accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer, you should really be using a more powerful GPU, one with more VRAM.
    Note that this has nothing to do with the OpenGL GPU features in After Effects. Details of the GPU features are here: http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2012/05/gpu-cuda-opengl-features-in-after-effects-cs6. html

    hey Todd
    i have the exact same problem but with my new macpro with renderay no matter what i do even a simple 3d extraction the renderay crashes! My cuda is full up to date and everything not sure why! if you have any way to resolve this issue would be awesome and help us out since i am on a deadline! at the moment!
    I have attached a few screen shots and my computer specs! as you can see the GPU Should not be running low on memory xD since its pretty much nearly full speced!
    The error!
    This is what was there! and all i added was a extractor after this and the error above appears!
    and this is my computer specs as you can see there is no lack of Power, Ram or VRAM here! so not sure why this error is occurring even after updating CUDA
    if you have anything else i could try please let me know! Thanks!

  • GPU Acceleration for Lightroom

    When will Lightroom have GPU acceleration like Photoshop CS4 has?

    From what I've read GPU acceleration in CS4 currently only applies to canvas zooming and rotation... not EVERYTHING is accelerated by the GPU. So what effect (if any) would GPU acceleration for have for those items in LR? (honest question... I don't know.)
    I've also read Adobe is planning on more features later on in CS to use GPU. So to me this appears currently as a first stage deployment of this technology... not TOO exciting in terms of actual benefit today, but with promising prospects in the future.
    As for LR, I assume it all depends on what features would benefit from this (some would actually slow down if routed through GPU, if I understand some the writeup about this.)

  • Feature Suggestion // CUDA GPU Acceleration for Lightroom 4

    GPU CUDA Acceleration for rendering image previews, exporting images, and playing video in Lightroom 4,
    I'd like to see Lightroom 4 make use of  GPU processing.  Similar to the Mercury Playback engine in Premiere Pro CS5.5
    GPU acceleration should be available for ALL CUDA enabled GPU's.
    I absolutely love GPU acceleration & Mercury Playback engine in Adobe Premiere Pro.  It really helps to speed up real-time previewing of high resolutuon footage.
    I am sure that GPU acceleration will speed up any professionals workflow.

  • Cannot select "Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL)" as my Renderer

    I have a AMD FirePro 4900 card in my HP Z420 desktop. I bought the card as a result of it being listed as one that supports GPU acceleration (as found on this list). I have updated the driver for the card to the most recent from AMDs site. When I try to create a new project, I am not able to select the OpenCL renderer from the dropdown. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated; this is a clean install (Adobe CC apps are the first thing to be installed on a clean Windows 7 install).

    Has been resolved. When doing Windows Update it installed the driver version shown above (v 9.3.3.3000). Even though I had installed the driver through Catalyst Suite it still reverted to the Windows update driver. I did the removal tool (found here) to remove all traces of catalyst, and then reinstalled catalyst, which found the more updated driver (v 12.104.2.0). All seems to be working well and I can select to set my FirePro (open cl) to be the renderer in Premiere Pro! YAY! (see below for updated GPU-Z output, showing OpenCL firing on all cylinders)

  • GPU acceleration for video editing

    I am using cyberlink power director 12, adobe premiere elements 12, and sony vegas 12 (yes a lot of 12's). Problem is, my new notebook (msi gt70 dominator pro) doesn't let the NVidia 880m run for acceleration. I've used all these programs on desktop and with my previous 7 asus g750 laptops (the asus kept overheating so went msi). They all work great.
     Nvidia geoforce is all set up optimum, and ive tried integrated and dedicated for each program (not that it should matter which is using to use program). All settings in the programs themselves are checked for hardware/gpu acceleration. This isn't my first time doing this, and laptop/desktop side by side all settings are identical. But when I go to the produce section, the box for acceleration isn't valid to click, no matter what final format I choose. Out of all 7 asus laptops ive had last 6 months, all of them worked just fine.
     Any help, please. Shame I spent so much on laptop, finally got one that doesn't thermal throttle, and now programs don't work. I also reinstalled windows and programs once already, and that didn't fix it. All drivers are also 100% up to date.
     Components are different than the asus, but that shouldn't matter. Asus had i7 4700 and gtx 860m/870m/880m ( I went through all of them jm js jz), my msi has i7 4810/4900 and 880m.

    I've been working on this problem for days now, I was up until 2am this morning trying to figure it out.
    I then plugged my monitor into my laptop for my son to watch music videos while I did some things around the house, and noticed that as soon as I plugged in the monitor it switched over to NVidia graphics not intel. While trying to figure this one out, I loaded power director to work on a movie, rendering takes so long I figure I should start now while im busy. Well, gpu acceleration works just fine. Just as before. I did absolutely nothing different.
    Still haven't figured out how to run second screen off intel graphics, but now I don't know if I want to since that's the only thing that's changed and now gpu acceleration is working fine.

  • 100% Command Line Rendering

    Hi, is there a way to define a sequence of images to be rendered into a movie from the command line, without first creating any composition ? Basically loading media and creating composition by command line or by script ?
    Regards,
    Frank

    Scripts are way to go. You can hand them over as a commandline parameter to the AE executable and then build comps and stuff. Just be aware that certain functions are only available in teh full AE, so you may need to tackle this as a 2 step process - build the projects, then render them in batch.

  • Declaring UTIs for command line utilities?

    I'm working on some command line tools for manipulating Intel Hex files and I'd like to include a Quick Look generator. It appears there aren't any built-in UTIs for this file type, so I need to declare them, which apparently is handled by an application bundle. But command line utilities don't have an application bundle. So where do I put the plist to declare the new UTIs?

    The part of the plist for specifying the UTIs that the generator can handle doesn't seem to allow for defining a new UTI, so I'm assuming it has to be done someplace else.
    Here's the documentation I'm looking at: http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/Q uicklookProgramming_Guide/Introduction/Introduction.html#//appleref/doc/uid/TP40005020-CH1-SW1
    From Listing 3-1
    <array>
    <string>SUPPORTEDUTITYPE</string> // change this!
    </array>
    it looks like the generator plist can only specify existing UTI strings. I don't see where to specify all the other bits, like file name extension. Am I missing something?

    The <cfexecute...> tag allows ColdFusion to run command
    line code. It
    can take a lot of trial and error to get that to work
    properly. User
    permissions of the ColdFusion server standard output versus
    standard

    this type of

    Take it slow, one step at the time is the best advice I can
    give you for
    using <cfexecute...>.

  • SWF and XML for Command line compiling for iOS

    I need to compile an application for iOS using command line ADT. I need to pass the SWF and XML to the ADT command. But which ones do I need to pass as the ones available are in the debug folder and I don't think they are well optimized for mobile publishing. Also the XML has debug with id in it.

    Hi,
    Yes, Flash Builder, by default, doesn’t save release swfs. A simpler way to get them however be to go to Project->Properties->Flex Compiler and set
    ‘-debug=false’ in compiler arguments.
    Now the swf generated in bin-debug will be a release swf.
    Please let us know in case you face any issues.
    Thanks,

  • 2D GPU acceleration for Linux Reader 8 (when it will be available)?

    It would be nice if Adobe Linux Reader 8 could use "2D GPU Acceleration" in Linux too. It could be done using OpenGL driver. Nvidia Linux Geforce driver has support for shader technology in Linux too. ATI also uses its own accelerated OpenGL library in Linux.
    Will Adobe make Linux Reader 8 with 2D GPU acceleration?

    What a pity. Adobe reader is very slow even on fast machines when compared to open alternatives. 2D GPU acceleration could give a chance to Adobe Reader to work at least equally fast as open source viewers.
    However thanks for reply.
