Mercury Playback Engine not working on PrPro CC 2014

Hello everyone. My Asus J750JS (NVIDIA 870M) modified with a Samsung 1T SSD for Footage and a original 240GB SSD for C: and F: (chache) my Adobe CC remove all the .TXT with CUDA CARDS SUPPORTED file!!!! and i am using CPU only!! even when the Mercury Playback Engine its on!!! please help!!!
You can see that the Warp Stabilizer (CUDA effect) with the Mercury Playback Engine activated give me red line!! i am working on a important project and i need a fast solution PLEASE!!

....in addition to the advice I gave on your other post....as great as our Asus gaming laptops are...they are STILL TWICE AS SLOW AS A POWERFUL DESKTOP SYSTEM running PPro !!!   My new G750JW compares in performance with some of the BEST DESKTOPS.....but, from THREE YEARS AGO !!!!!
There is only SO MUCH you can do with a laptop.....much of the professional software today takes advantage of the greater power of current desktop systems and will not run at its best on a less powerful laptop. Now that you have dramatically improved your drive system by getting rid of the 5400rpm HDD and installing the Samsung SSD , ( hopefully,the 850 pro model and NOT the EVO), you STILL need to max out your system memory to 32GB from 16., With warp stabilizer, a desktop system with a 6 or 8 core CPU running at over 4Ghz would behave MUCH differently !!! I do NOT know if more memory would help with warp stabilizer.....I know it DOES help with other operations I have used on PPro !! Take the test at the  PPBM7 website to see the performance of your machine and identify any potential problem.

  • Mercury Playback Engine stop working in Premiere CC 2014

    Hello All,
    After upgrading to the latest CC 2014 I've been experiencing issues with real time editing when working in Premiere.   I've checked to make sure that CUDA is selected and it is, but I'm not getting the performance from the CUDA.  I've changed the settings to "Software" and I get the same results when changing between the two.  I also noticed that the CUDA is now available in "Media Encoder CC 2014" but I'm not sure if it's really using it or not, just like Premiere I can see the CUDA is available..  I also upgraded to the latest NVIDIA driver which I'm not ruling that out either.  Please help.

    Hello John,
    Thanks for the reply.  Yes, I am 100% Premiere  Pro is/was using CUDA.  One indication is the yellow that shows up in the timeline.  When in "Software" mode every change is red until I render it.  With the CUDA edit changes show nothing until I make a change, it turns yellow. 
    In getting more screenshots to show I found my problem.  I feel like a complete noob.  The problem was/is, I added a 16bit effect (circle) to an adjustment layer which is not rendered in real time and when I made a change I forgot. duh

  • Mercury Playback Engine not available on Macbook Pro Retina 15"

    Hi,
    I have a Macbook Pro Retina 15" with 16gb of RAM and a 500GB SSD, and am trying to enable Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (Open CL) on a legitimate copy of Adobe Premiere Pro CS6.  For some reason the selection for that option is shaded and stuck on Software Only.  I have tried installing and enabling the nVIDIA CUDA driver but nothing has changed.  How can I fix this? Thanks.

    Looking at this, it doesn't seem that the Retina MacBook Pro's NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M is on the list. And the NVIDIA CUDA driver will give you nothing but heartache (a frequent source of kernel panics).
    You might want to take your question to the Adobe Premiere discussion boad to see if there are any current 'workarounds' -> http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere.

  • Mercury Playback Engine does not work in new PP 2014 release?

    Hi everyone, I've just downloaded the new 2014 version of PP to get the following message whilst uploading a project I've been working on:
    'This project was last used with mercury playback engine GPU acceleration (cuda), which is either not available or not certified on this system. Mercury playback engine software only will be used'.
    So, I make a trip to the playback settings in the preferences and there is just no option to switch on mercury playback. I have an Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 and up until now I've never had to render a single thing on my system no matter how many effects I've had to apply (working with raw DSLR footage). Now I'm getting dropped frames and red lines all over my sequence? Is there a way to remedy this in the new version of PP? If not I'll be uninstalling it and sticking to the older release.
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Kevin

    My bad, I was looking in the wrong place. I've now changed it to GPU acceleration and it's working fine!

  • Mercury Playback Engine GPU not available

    I've been reading through forum postings and have not found a solution, so I apologize if there is a solution posted elsewhere.
    I have a 27" iMac (late 2012) with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX graphics card running Mac OS 10.8.5.
    I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CS6.0.3, and when I updated my OS to 10.9 Maverick, I began to experience several problems, including:
    The dreaded spinning beachball and "Premiere not responding."
    "This project was last used with Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA) which is not available on your system. Mercury Playback Engine Software Only will be used.
    Video files - I think they were all .MOV - became "squished" to the top of the Program Monitor (movie only took up about 1/3 of program monitor window).
    After a long chat with Adobe Support, he indicated that the update to 10.9 Maverick was the problem, so I:
    Updated to Premiere 6.0.5, but that did not fix any of the issues.
    Logged in as "Root," which worked for a while but I also received 3 "Premiere encountered problem and must shut down."
    Deleted preferences, repaired permissions, basic troubleshooting practices, etc, but problems persisted.
    No help.
    Eventually I restored my computer from a Time Machine backup to a day prior to the OS 10.9 update, and this seemed to fix all the issues. So I was back to Mac 10.8.5 and Premiere 6.0.3.
    But the .MOV-compressed-in-the-program-monitor problem began to surface again (see  photo below).
    So I updated to Premiere to 6.0.5 (but not my OS - it's still 10.8.5), and the "Mercury Playback Engine" error is back.
    And the .MOV files are still compressed in the Program Monitor. I have a project that I completed in 6.0.3, but is now messed up in 6.0.5.
    Help please. Is the only solution downgrading to Premiere 6.0.3, and if so, must I do a clean install of the program from the DVD?

    Thanks so much for your quick responses.
    @Kevin, the strange thing is this: Express purchased this iMac and the Adobe Creative Suite back in January of this year, and the computer and software have worked flawlessly since that time.
    It was only after upgrading, first to Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks (which I later downgraded back to 10.8.5), and then to Premiere 6.0.5, that I began experiencing problems.
    Prior to these upgrades, I never received the "Missing Renderer" message, nor did I experience any lagging problems or problems relating to .MOVs in the Program Viewer.
    Hi Randy,
    I'm sorry. I really don't know the answer to your question, or how that happened. All I know is that the card is not supported for CS6. I guess we have a mystery on our hands.
    harris1966 wrote:
    Any insight on why I never experienced problems until upgrading software?
    Sorry, it is behaving as if your text file was hacked prior to you receiving the computer. After you updated the OS, a new text file without your card was created. Your card would not be listed in that file because it is not supported.
    harris1966 wrote:
    Are you saying that PP doesn't support NVIDIA 680 MX cards "now that the software is at 6.05"? Or PP doesn't support that card at all, under any software version?
    The card is supported for Premiere Pro CC, but not prior to that.

  • Does Mercury Playback Engine work on a Mac with Quadro 4800 ?

    Has anyone successfully run Premiere CS5 Mercury Playback Engine in Hardware acceleration mode, I only get Software mode? The option to change the mode is grayed out for me, but I have the adobe cuda qualify video card.  I'm running a 8 Core Mac Pro 3.2Ghz 16GB ram 10 Disk Striped Raid with Nvidia Quadro FX 4800 and Mac OSX 10.6.3. All the demos I have seen are running on Windows 7 Boxes.

    YES - nvidia 4800 + MAC = good Mercury editing experience.
    The problem is that you need to download the CUDA 3.0 drivers which they haven't published as 'official' yet.  Adobe is pushing them to move them over as the drivers seem completely finished.  You can get them here - http://developer.nvidia.com/object/cuda_3_0_downloads.html
    One other note - I found that my trusty firewire 800 g-raid mini's don't work as well as I'd like for playback in a Mac tower.  Basically, MPE is asking for more than the drive can actually handle.  I put in two other drives in a software raid and my problems went away.
    Hope this helps,

  • GTX 570 and Premiere CS 5.5: Mercury Playback Engine doesn't seem to work

    Hi everyone,
    I'm getting choppy playback and a red render bar on Premiere CS5.5 whenever I apply to a clip one of this effects: Any effect on the distort folder, noise alpha or Magic Bullet Looks 2.
    The sequence is an AVCHD 1080/24p Premiere preset and the media files are AVCHD from a GH2 (1080/24p at 24Mbps).
    My system is more or less like this:
    Motherboard: Gigabyte Z68X-UD4-B3
    Processor: Core i7 2600k
    Ram: 16Gb DDR3 1600 Kingston HyperX
    Graphics Card: Gigabyte GTX 570 1280 Mb (it comes factory overclocked)
    (Only one 1920*1080 monitor is attached to the graphics card right now)
    HDDs: 3 Western Digital Caviar Black 1 TB lay out as follows:
            c: OS, Program Files, pagefile
            g: Project and media files
            h: previews
    And now, the symptons: In an AVCHD 1080/24p sequence with 24Mbps AVCHD clips, all in the same video track, whenever I apply an effect from the distort folder, Magic Bullet Looks or noise alpha (and probably any hardware accelerated effect) the render bar turns from yellow to red and I get choppy playback unless I set the playback resolution to 1/2. If I change the Mercury Playback Engine setting from hardware to software nothing changes. So I'm thinking that the GTX 570 is not working with Premiere CS5.5 for some reason. In this thread (http://forums.adobe.com/message/3736541) some people had similar complains. Also rendering feels pretty slow. For example a 30 seconds clip with a Magic Bullet Looks effect applied takes 150 seconds to turn from red to green.
    I've tried completely uninstalling the nvidia drivers and installing the latest ones to no effect. I'm kind of frustrated, I've chosen this system and CS5.5 thinking it was going to be a smooth experience and I'm a bit dissapointed right now. Hopefully there will be a fix for this. Or maybe I'm doing something wrong myself.
    Thanks a lot in advance and sorry to bother you with this.
    Cheers.
    Diego

    Thanks a lot Harm and Jim,
    I continue to be amazed by the willingness of people around the web to help each other. Maybe there's still some hope for the human race after all.
    Regarding my MPE expectations I suppose that it's a sign of the times; spoiled kids like me expecting the world from a new system and then getting dissapointed at the first symptons of something not going as smooth as they think at first. But then again when storytelling costs you more than it pays at the end of the month, sometimes it's difficult not to get into drama-queen mode every now and then.
    Sorry for going a little bit off-topic here but, is there away to make completely sure that the graphics card is actually doing its job inside Premiere? This thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3736541 got me a little nervous thinking that it may be a bug or something on CS5.5 that prevents the GTX570 from working properly.
    Also is there a way that I can improve general performance and rendering times without investing a lot more in this new machine. I thought about buying a couple of more disks and running a RAID through the motherboard but maybe the impact in processing power is not worth it. Sorry again to ask so many questions but video editing is almost completely new for me. Not so long ago writing was enough for me, but that's not anymore the case. Now, I'm using every storytelling medium that I can. So my mind is always filled with question marks dancing to Tchaikovsky ballet suites and who knows what else.
    Thanks a lot again. I hope I can repay the community in a not so distant future.
    Regards.

  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2 gigs ram,  will it work with Mercury playback Engine for accelerate

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2 gigs ram,  will it work with adobe Mercury playback Engine for accelerated rendering for Premeire Pro cs6?

    I am a PC guy but, I have 6 work stations with CS6 but the wife wants a Mac so I am getting her an imac with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2 gigs ram. Do you think this video card in the mac will still be able to utilize the Adobe CS6 MPE?
    It's not formally supported by Adobe for GPU acceleration; however judging from the fact that the lesser GTX-650M is (with 6.02 update), and the end-user ability to enable support for unsupported cards in Adobe apps, it should work.

  • How can I open a project that has been created with Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration software, on my trial version of Premier Pro CC?

    Hi,
    I'm working with a colleague who is using Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration software on his PC version of Premier Pro CC. I am using a mac and have a trial version of Premier Pro CC. When I try to open a project file that he has sent me I get an error message-
    "Missing renderer: This project was last used with Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (CUDA), which is either not available or not certified on this system. Mercury Playback Engine Software Only will be used."
    When I click OK and locate the files I get a message saying "File format not supported".
    Can anyone tell me what to do so that we can share project files?
    Many thanks,
    Jessie

    Shouldn't really be the MPE at fault here ... what is the codec of the footage/sequence/project?
    Second, can you create a new project in PrPro, then in the media browser, import that sequence from the other project?

  • How do I know if I have Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL)?

    To anyone who can help,
    BACKGROUND
    I am new to Premiere Pro and just started my first project on CC 2014.  A tutorial recommended I select 'Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL)' over 'Mercury Playback Engine Software Only' in the VIDEO AND RENDERING section of the PROJECT SETTINGS window.  Since the former option isn't grayed out, I'm assuming I have both to choose from, however, when I select 'Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL), only the audio will play back in my source window; the video no longer plays back.
    HARDWARE
    I am on an (early 2008) Mac Pro desktop with two 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors, and two ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphics cards.
    I am running OS X 10.9.5.
    QUESTIONS
    1.  Is there a way to figure out if I actually have this 'Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL)' thing?
    2.  Is opting for 'Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL)' over 'Mercury Playback Engine Software Only' (the default) really even going to make a noticeable difference in how my 1080p 24 fps movie is rendered?
    Thanks in advance to any advice offered!
    Shaun

  • Premiere CC 2014: Message on loading project from older version: This project was last used with Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration (CUDA)...

    After installing Adobe CC 2014 I have each time a message when loading an old Adobe pro project. Message:This project was last used with Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration (CUDA), which is either not available or not certified on this system. Mercury Playback software will be used. I have very recent HP Zbook 15 with a NVIDIA Quadro K2100M. At webinar today it was explained how to solve this, but sound was not understandable at my machine at that moment. Help? What need I to do.

    Problem is solved since yesterday via Adobe helpdesk. It appeared that the newest driver for the NVIDIA were note present. So after downloading the new drivers it work. But I think Adobe should mention those issues when they launch new versions of Adobe CC like in June.

  • Can't Change Mercury Playback Engine

    Everytime I try to change the Mercury Playback Engine from "Software Only" to "GPU Acceleration", I can't. The section to change the Mercury Playback Engine, appears to be grey, like everyone else has been saying.
    I have read and searched around the Adobe Forums, but I can't seem to find an answer.
    I just got the PNY Nvidia Quadro 2000D. I know it works with Premiere Pro CS5.5, because it's listed on the site --> http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html.
    I've tried everything I could of think of:
    - Uninstalled Adobe CS5.5 then Reinstalled Adobe CS5.5
    - Setected Maximum Bit Depth & Maximum Render Quality (From Sequence Settings)
    So My Question Is:
    How do I fix this problem?

    I DID have the option to choose GPU before I had any Graphics Card, in my computer.
    Again, impossible.
    For one, you cannot operate your computer without a GPU, so saying you previously had none makes no sense. How did you operate the computer before adding this card?
    For another, the only way you can select GPU accelerated rendering in Premiere Pro is if you have an Nvidia GPU with CUDA and a minimum amount of RAM; that either means you have an officially supported GPU or you hacked the necessary file to activate the GPU. The only other possible explanation is that you somehow stumbled upon a bug that made this option available. I don't recall that ever being reported before, so you'd be the first that I'd be aware of.
    My theory: you had another GPU that was hardware Mercury Playback Engine capable, and replaced it. The original drivers were not uninstalled, and the drivers for the new card were, but there's a conflict. This is just a guess, as you're not providing enough information. If you don't want to, fine--that's your choice. No one will be able to help you without such information, however.
    Anyway, good luck to you.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro CC crush - no Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration (OPEN CL)

    I was an happy customer of Adobe CC till few days ago.
    It were a few weeks I did not update the software in CC due to a problem with connection.
    Needed to use Premiere Pro CC. It always crushes my MacBook Pro retina 2012 (16 giga ram) during export of the video. The monitor became black and there was no way to restart.
    The Macbook worked smoothly with all the other softwares. Deleted CC and reinstalled everything, which was quit painful. However, at the end of the day, Premiere Pro CC works but I cannot use Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (open CL) which I used all the times before with huge advantage (exporting a 1 minute video in good quality needed 2 minutes with GPU accelerator, 20 minutes without).
    When I open old project of Premiere Pro cc I read this message "this project was last used with Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration (OPEN CL), which is either not available or not certified on this system. Mercury Playback Engine software only will be used". There is no way to change the rendered from Project setting - Mercury Playback Engine software is the only option.  
    My question: is it a problem with Adobe Premiere Pro CC or with my graphic?

    Ask in the Premiere forum.
