GPU Acceleration in Photoshop (Intel GMA 4500MHD)

Does Intel GMA 4500MHD support GPU acceleration in Adobe Photoshop CS4?
(According to recommendation about OpenGL and Shared Model this GPU should support it, but Intel GPUs are not included in Adobe list of supported GPUs at all and I have found 2 posts on web mentioning it does not). What size of RAM in this case is needed? How it works with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470?
Thank you.

Intel gma 4500mhd with displayport

Hello.
I have lenovo t500 (2055-2MG) and Dell 24" ultrasharp U2414H monitor. I connected it with displayport - minidisplayport to the notebook, but it does not work with intel gma 4500Mhd. The display shows No signal. I use Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit version.
I read about T410, that displayport is disabled on integrated graphics. Is it concerns for t500 also?
How can I use this integrated graphics with this external monitor?
Thank you.

Try downgrading the intel video driver and disabeling KMS. I have the same chipset and exactly the same problems with xfce4-power-manager.
"I downgraded xf86-video-intel (2.10.0-1 -> 2.9.1-1) (+ disable KMS) and now everything works fine."
Thanks for the help! I've tried what you said above and disabled KMS as explained on http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel. Disabling KMS didn't work with 2.10.0-1, but it did with 2.9.1.1.
I havn't been able to test wheter or not this solves the problems yet. It seams to me that the screen brightness is lower now, and that's good. However, for the screen-flickering problem I'm not sure if it's gone or not yet, and as for the the weirdness of the Power Management it is still there (it is still increasing the brightness lowers the brightness instead). However, that's a minor problem compared to the brightness changing itself all the time.

How to get GPU acceleration in PhotoShop CS6

Hello,
Ive noticed that initially photoshop will not allow me to use acceleration, I am using a Quadro based Laptop and would really like to benefit from its GPU. I know in Premiere Pro you can edit a File called "Supported GPUs" witch will allow you to use the Murcery Playback engine fine. Is there a way to do something similar in Photoshop?
System specifications:
Dell Latitude E6410
Corei5 520M
6GBs DDR3
Nvidia Quadro NVS 3100M

No, there is nothing similar in Photoshop.
What OS are you using?
How much VRAM does your GPU have?
Are there any crashes listed in Help->System Info?
And have you updated your driver from NVidia recently? (you should)

T500 with intel gma 4500mhd, increase system video memory

Hi,
I'm curious if there is a way, to increase my system video memory from the default 96mb, to 128mb or more, sience I still have 1155mb shared system memory. In a few case I would prefer more than 96, but there no increase option in bios nor in the driver settings.
Lenovo IdeaPad Miix 2 8

I'm testing win7 now, and I've got a good reason to think (or I'm almost sure), that the default 92mb vram (32 dedicated + 64 shared) in't enought however I can't allocate manually more shared memory to the vga.
With the default w7 driver, the OS dosen't get any of the shared memory (so the system is running only with the dedicated 32mb), most likely because of that the display becomes choppy/dizzy like this. If I update the driver with the vista driver the vga gets 96 mb vram and this crahes greatly decreasing. After I switch to the classic win theme, they almost gone, exept if I playing videos with DXVA acceleration or 720/1080p movies.
But I'm about to give this up, I've search the internet for a whole day, but didin't find any way, to overdirve the driver settings.

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.

State of GPU acceleration in Flash Player 11

I am confused about the current requirements to get hardware accelerated flash content.
I often heard complaints that my Flash games would not run as smoothly under some circumstances, especially on OSX Lion (I used wmode=direct for a smooth scrolling).
While I was trying to get around this I upgraded to Flash Player 11 on my Alienware m11x and suddenly lost hardware acceleration for my Intel GMA 4500HD which is part of the integrated hybrid graphics. When I switch over to GeForce everything is fine.
Tested with all releases and Betas of Flash Player 11. Browers tested: Firefox 8, Chrome 15, Internet Explorer 9. OS: Windows 7 64-Bit
Now to use Flash without reduced battery life I have to revert back to Flash Player 10.3.
Then I learned about the official Stage3D blacklist/requirements and noticed that my chipset is supported but the driver version is not. It's a few versions older (8.15.10.1994) than the supported version and probably won't get updated since it's part of Dell's hybrid driver.
So are the Stage3D requirements also the requirements to get any hardware acceleration in Flash now?

Thank you very much for your honest answer. I already knew that tech note, but I think it is misleading and suggests that you only need those requirements for Stage3D content.
Also, I have to note that I am deeply worried by this decission. All Linux, probably many notebook/netbook and shuttle pc users are now either stuck with flash player 10 or just update and wonder why their Youtube playback suddenly looks and performs worse, especially since so many people are biased against the Flash Player these days.
Sure, it's a good idea to keep your drivers up to date, but I don't see why my GMA driver is blacklisted just because of it's version number and I absolutely have no control to even override it on my own risk (despite the fact that everything works fine with flash player 10.3). Sadly some mobile chipsets like mine have special driver sets and cannot use the official drivers.
So as a flash developer I am concerned that it just unnecessarily limits the the appeal to the mainstream audience, since most of my clients are not really into 3D game browser expierences.
Thanks again for the answer,
Sven Larsen

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.)

Acceleration thru GPU in Photoshop CS4 ( ATI Mobility Radeon 3470 vs. Intel GMA X4500HD)

The main reason, why I am going to buy notebook instead PDA, is a need of editing photographs. The most demanding program will be Photoshop (CS4), so good-working GPU accelation would warm the heart of me. Unfortunately this document(*) does not mention Intel GMA X4500HD, which would be cheaper choice. Do you have any experience with this GPU and acceleration thru it in PS? (required RAM size ?). Thank you.

Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended 64-Bit GPU Acceleration Stopped Working

I've been using Photoshop CS6 Extended 64-bit when one day the GPU acceleration features stopped working. I closed the application and restarted it and the GPU acceleration still didn't work. I couldn't rotate the canvas or use scrubby zoom. I rebooted my system and it still wasn't working. I check my performance preferences and my graphics processor was detected with the "Use Graphics Processor" box checked. I unchecked it and rechecked but the GPU acceleration still wasn't working. I uninstalled Photoshop CS6 and reinstalled it. I got the GPU acceleration to work opening the application right after the install. I close Photoshop CS6 64-bit and reopened it and the GPU acceleration wasn't working again. I am able to use GPU acceleration features in Photoshop CS6 32-bit with no problem. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit Ultimate Edition and I have a GeForce 280m GTX GPU. Would there be anyone out there who can help me with this issue. Thanks.

From what I gathered on this Forum there is a good chance that it may be related to the driver – unfortunately it could be either becasuse it’s obsolete or a bad new version.

GPU acceleration fix for Dell Intel and Nvidia chipsets with external monitor?

I have a Dell XPS laptop with both integrated Intel chips and Nvidia chips and I can only get the GPU acceleration to work when I don't have any external monitors plugged in.
Is there some way I can get Illustrator to enable the Nvidia GPU and stop being confused by multiple chipsets on external monitors? I really like the live zoom.

same problem here,
'm getting a little frustrated trying to get my laptop working with my LG DLP 3D ready projector to display in 3D. The projector itself will work in 3D as long as the resolution is 1024x768@120hz and the laptop's NVidia GTX 770M should have no issues driving the projector with this resolution.
Where it seems like the problems occur is Intel HD 4600 graphics driver gets in the way every time i try to run anything 3D, the software Im using to run any 3D type files do not recognize the projector as a 3D capable device because all the laptop is using is the Intel HD 4600 graphics.
If I could somehow turn off the Intel graphics and just force the laptop to just use the NVidia card I think all my issues will go away. I just am not having success in doing this.
I have tried to go into the NVidia control panel and under 3D settings pick the software program that runs my 3D files and tell it to use the NVidia card...but it never works.
I think everything is sent through the Intel graphics card regardless if the laptop is using the NVidia card (just guessing here)?
I also tried to simply uninstall the drivers but that did not work,
I also tried to disable the Intel graphics but it then went into some type of generic display driver mode and still would not work.
I also went into the BIOS to look for any settings that would allow me to disable the Intel graphics card ..no luck, could not find any settings for this.
Can someone help me with this? how can I disable the Intel graphics and force the laptop to just use the NVidia card all the time?
Thanks!!

Intel Haswell GPU acceleration in CC?

Has anyone tried Intel Haswell integrated graphics chips for GPU acceleration in Adobe Premiere Pro CC? If so: cigar? No cigar?
(I realize Haswell is neither supported nor is anywhere in the same performance bracket with discrete desktop GPUs from AMD and NVidia, and clearly isn't going to make you return your GTX-Titan. Just curious if GPU acceleration is at all possible given Haswell's hardware support for OpenCL and other neat tricks.)

Premiere Pro CC cannot use Intel graphics for hardware acceleration.
Guess things change pretty fast in Adobe town...

Nvidia or Radeon for Photoshop CS5/6 for GPU acceleration

Hi there-
Im buying a new videocard for my photoshop PC, and Im trying to figure out if Photoshop supports GPU acceleration on both Nvida and Radeon cards. Ive heard in the past that it only supported CUDA (Nvidia). I currently use CS5, but will update to CS6 at some point.
Thanks,

From a pure quality perspective - and you should know I develop OpenGL graphics software myself - I find ATI/AMD's display drivers to be more consistently of good quality. Both companies flub driver releases occasionally, as they focus primarily on computer game development, but ATI seems to deliver "golden" versions, which just work right with Adobe products, more often. I have had to work around problems in display drivers from nVidia more often.
Also note that Photoshop and company tend to prefer single video cards, rather than dual/multiple GPU arrangements sometimes found inside certain video cards, or creatable by the user by buying multiple cards. Many modern video cards can support multiple monitors on a single GPU.
If you do choose one or the other video card, also keep in mind you'll want to make sure you don't push your computer's power supply past its design limits. I like the ATI x670 line (e.g., the current VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 6670 1GB DDR5) because it balances power consumption against GPU performance, and doesn't emit "on the runway" fan sounds. Don't get me wrong, these cards are plenty fast, but they don't even require a separate power connector.

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?
In case it is in any way relevant, these are my computer's specifications:

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."

GPU problem in Photoshop cs6

How change the GPU in Photoshop CS6? My photoshop only detect my intel GMA and my pc have one geforce 640m what can i do to change it?

PS will use the primary system GPU. You will have to change that in your system settings or BIOS/ EFI even.
