Adobe is the biggest media encoding market with AME, yet it doesn't support quick sync yet? wtf. Adobe gives very little detail as to what it actually does support, like does it use CUDA or Stream to speed up H.264 rendering or is it just using the GPU for other not very often used speedups rather than the rendering which is what we all want sped up?
When will AME support quicksync and what does AME currently support for rendering speeds via CUDA and Stream?

See this thread for details. If you have questions about what is processed using CUDA, ask on that thread.
Encoding and decoding are not processed using CUDA.

Will Final Cut X use Intel Quick Sync technology?

Will Final Cut X use the Intel Quick Sync technology available on SandyBridge and future processes to speed up transcoding operations?
What about if there is a discrete GPU in the system?

Hi all,
All the developers are under NDA so I didn't say anything before but it is apparent from public domain sources that OSX lion has the APIs for this (which were not available before) so this functionality will be available as soon as Lion is released. Pretty awesome, eh!

When Quicktime for Windows will support Intel Quick Sync ?

I would like to know when will Quicktime use the Intel Quick Sync technology on PC ?
It does use it on MAC and provide fast encoding and smooth decoding with a minimum CPU impact

QuickTime Player version 7 was released in April, 2005 and has had modest updates since but Windows development has ended and soon the Mac version will be completely replaced by QuickTime X.

Does Premiere Elements support Intel Quick Sync?

Hi all,
Does anyone know if Premiere Elements supports Intel Quick Sync? If not, does anyone know if I can download the plugins made for Premiere Elements 8/9 and use it in version 10?
Thanks for any help.

You can use those plugins for 32-bit versions of Premiere Elements 10. PrE10 also has a 64-bit version and that will not support 3rd party 32-bit plugins.

Also I am interested to learn whether someone else shares the same name as me.

Intel Quick Sync disabled when discrete card installed on IB and z77a-g45 board

Hi all I have an msi z77a-g45 motherboard with an intel IB 3570K CPU. Recently I install an AMD 7770 graphics card and the on board-graphics is switched off. Now I can't use the intel quick sync to encode my videos. The GPU acceleration for the AMD 7770 is there but the quality is terrible compared to the quick sync and the file is huge ie 46MB for the IB encode and 140MB for the AMD 7770 encode with same settings and output, don't know why. I have read about the lucid virtu software but it does not work or detects my IB 3570K CPU. I have also tried plugging in the HDMI monitor cable to the motherboard instead of the video card but the screen display a no signal message. The problem is I want to use the intel quick sync to encode my videos and my AMD 7770 graphics card to play games, is there a good way to do this instead of plugging and unplugging the video card. Thanks in advance for your help.

You can only use QuickSync without a dedicated graphics. As soon as a VGA card is inserted, it will override the IGP and thus QuickSync is not available.
Only way is to turn off dedicated in windows and reconnect the monitor to the IGP and reboot, or completely remove the dedicated.
I have the same issue with my setup.

Intel's Quick Sync transcode support in Flash Encoder?

Intel just released their generation 2 Sandybridge Processors. Initial reviews are showing amazing encoding performance. Apparantly applications have to support this new technology to take advantage of the performance gains.
Any word on if Adobe is going to support Intel Quick Sync technology in Flash Media encoder?
Thanks

I'm also very interested in seeing FMLE incorporate this functionality. I understand that there is an Intel Quick Sync plugin for Premiere Pro/Premiere Elements, so I would think and hope that this is a relatively simple feature to add.

Cannot activate Quick Sync in H61MU-E33-B3

I purchased an H61MU-E33-B3 at Micro Center in Santa Clara, California, installed an second generation core i3 and I only get Standard VGA Graphics.
I updated the BIOS using the Live Update Online today, so it has the latest.
Tried booting to DVI-D, HDMI and I cannot get the Intel Integrated HD Graphics to work, only standard VGA (up to 1280x1024 but not the full capabilities of the 2nd generation core i3, Sandy Bridge).
The only thing I have not tried is the CD that came with the card as my set-up does not have a CD player.
Has anybody been able to make the H61MU-E33-B3 run the Intel Integrated HD Graphics?
Thanks

But anyway, thanks for the info, and Sandy Bridge rocks! I have 1.7X-3X improvement in Video Transcoding over real-time depending on the application.
I picked up the same MSI H61MU-E33-B3 motherboard along with the i3-2100 CPU. In terms of "transcoding", do you mean that you ran an application that was capable of using the Intel "Quick Sync" functionality, and you are confident that Quick Sync was actually working?
I read in a few places that the Intel "Clear Video" was somehow disabled with this board, so I am kind of confused at this point, what graphic functions work, and what don't. I am also a bit confused about the AHCI and if it is supported by this board. Since you are already using this board, would appreciate any other advice you have about it so far. So far I can find very little about it on the web. Thanks.

Using iGPU and Quick Sync on Core i5-2500K with Premiere Elements

Hi,
I've downloaded the prototype plugin from Intel for Premiere Elements to make use of the iGPU built into the new 2500K Intel chip and has successfully following the install instructions.
http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/adobe-premiere-propremiere-elements-encoder-plug- in-using-intel-media-sdk-and-intel-quick-sync-video-technology/
The problem is, I don't know how to prove that it is working - i.e. how do I show that quick sync is working?
Sorry if it's a stoooopid question.
Daran.

From the description on the page you linked to you select the plug-in as an encoder when Sharing. If you select it and successfully create a Share then it must be working.
For Adobe Premiere Elements: The new encoder is exposed
via the "Share" tab, by selecting “Personal Computer” then “Others –
Third Party Plug-ins”. The encoding parameters can be explored and
modified by clicking on the “Advanced…” button. After installing the
plug-in (see below) only one encoder preset is available. The user can
create their own presets by modifying default preset and then saving new
preset.
Cheers,
Neale

Does CS4 Support ATI Stream or NVIDIA CUDA?

The title says it all... Does CS4 support hardware acceleration using ATI Stream or NVIDI CUDA? I don't find anything about these in the specs.

The quick answer is NO!
With third party software there is a possibility of CUDA support. When CS5 comes early next year there definitley will be CUDA support for at least some cards.

Driver for nvidia, ati and intel

Hi,
I have successfully installed archlinux on a usb drive.
It works on every computer with ati or intel graphics card but when I know want to install the nvidia driver it complains about a dependencie of the ati and intel one.
So I have the choice between nvdia or intel and ati. Is there a way to make the usb stick work on ati, intel and nvidia?
Regards

archer42 wrote:How does as example ubuntu solve this issue?
They don't. They use nouveau. You can tell the installer to install the nvidia driver from their "restricted" repository, but you do so at the expense of the intel and ati drivers, just like in Arch.
There's one thing... if you don't care about 3d acceleration, you can simply force-uninstall libgl, intel-dri, ati-dri. Then you can have nvdia, intel and ati at the same time. But 3d accel will only work on nvidia, of course.
Gentoo is (I think) the only one with a full solution - their eselect mechanism. Their mesa and nvidia-drivers ebuilds install GL libs in different places, so they don't conflict. Then eselect switches around some symlinks and plays with the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable. You still have to manually use eselect ("eselect opengl set nvidia" or "eselect opengl set xorg-x11"), but at least you can have all packages installed at the same time.

Z77A-GD65 Quick Sync with Virtu MVP Issue

Hi everyone! My apologies if this has been answered elsewhere but my searching didn't find anything conclusive. I'm a very happy convert from an EVGA P67 SLI board (ugh) to an MSI Z77A-GD65 (YAY!) So far, I absolutely love this board but I'm having an issue I hope someone can answer. I run a YouTube channel and render a lot of video using Sony Movie Studio Platinum. This product is supposed to support Intel's Quick Sync technology to greatly speed up processing times. Normally, you need to have a monitor running off the IGP for this to be available but Virtu MVP is supposed to get around this. I have a GTX770 as my main video card and a Core i7-2600K which is confirmed to support Quick Sync. However, I've had no luck getting Quick Sync to appear as available to Movie Studio Platinum. Here's what I've done:
1. Enabled IGP in the BIOS (also tried making it the primary display adapter, didn't change anything.)
2. Installed latest drivers for both Intel HD 3000 and my GTX770. Both are available to the system.
3. Set Virtu MVP as D-Mode (either mode supposedly enables Quick Sync and D-Mode's obviously better for gaming.)
4. Installed the Virtu MVP software and created a profile for Movie Studio Platinum. Tried it in both D-Mode and I-Mode through the software.
The short of it is that Movie Studio Platinum does not recognise Quick Sync as being available. It's just not selectable which means it can't detect it. I've also tried plugging my secondary monitor directly into the IGP. This isn't supposed to be necessary with Virtu MVP but I don't game on my second monitor so whatever. Still nothing. I'm kind of at a loss for what to do now. I've been told that most mainboards require you to enable Quick Sync specifically in the BIOS but I don't see that option. Is it just always enabled when the IGP is on this board or does it have to be toggled elsewhere?
If anyone has advice on this, I would really appreciate it. My purchase of this board wasn't contingent on Quick Sync but given the amount of video rendering I'm doing right now, having that acceleration would be a massive boon to me. This feels like I'm just missing something simple. Any advice people can offer? Thanks a ton everyone!

I actually did download the latest MVP from their site, is that what you're talking about or something else?
I'm pleased to report that my Quick Sync issue has been resolved and well, it was pretty much my fault. Turns out only certain rendering profiles in Movie Studio Platinum are able to use Quick Sync. Their documentation didn't make this clear but I stumbled over the solution and it's working like a charm. Thanks!

Yesterday I updated my mac to System 10.9 and now I have a dialogue box in system preferences saying I need to update the NVIDIA CUDA drivers but the servers are unavailable.

Vista Ultimate 64-bit recognizes 8 cores. 32-bit recognizes one physical cpu.
I've had very little trouble in two years. And now I do like Windows 7 but also eager for the RC.
I've been using the latest Nvidia. There is a method to the madness of how to uninstall/delete and install graphics drivers, or madness in the method. The W7 drivers are easier.
Nope. Something else. More sensitive to disk errors. You aren't running a program to boost fans. Something.
And some AV software is more prone to causing trouble. But all you need is a good AV/malware program, and even Norton AV 2009 is acceptable, or Avast or one of the others.

No virtu support in msi z77a gd55: how to use quick sync then?

Hello there,
Being unaware at purchase time, i wonder how can i use quick sync of intel when in d-mode with z77A GD55? I ask this because no lucid hydra/virtu from msi download page. I know the cd contains it but it is not offered to be installed since the board is not lucid signed. If i force install it, the software runs in trial mode which is because of no license from the board. Are the virtu and virtu mvp actually different program? If no virtu support so whats the deal with bios settings to control lucid virtu?
Please help, it is with this issue that i have lost confidence using msi board (based on the fact that overclocking sucks too since the latest bios 1.3 vdroop control is useless and no offset voltage). So if this can be solved, i have some positive point to at least retain the board as my own. Thanks.

Quick sync is not a replacement for Virtu. They are two different products.
Quick sync transcodes movies using the Intel IGPU.

Currently Intel’s Quick Sync transcode is only supported by two applications: Cyberlink’s Media Espresso 6 and Arcsoft’s Media Converter 7. Both of these applications are video to go applications targeted at users who want to take high resolution/high bitrate content and transcode it to more compact formats for use on smartphones, tablets, media streamers and gaming consoles. The intended market is not users who are attempting to make high quality archives of Blu-ray content. As a result, there’s no support for multi-channel audio; both applications are limited to 2-channel MP3 or AAC output. There’s also no support for transcoding to anything higher than the main profile of H.264.

With Virtu you end up with is a system that should run all 3D games on your discrete GPU, and run all video decoding and encoding on SNB's GPU. Since this isn't switchable graphics but rather a form of GPU virtualization you can actually run iGPU and dGPU applications at the same time (e.g. you can watch a movie in one window on the iGPU and play a game in another on the dGPU).

My iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 8.1 laptop or my Windows 7 PC.

I have been going through the forums for the last few weeks and nothing has helped. Both computers are x64 bit.
Problems I am experiencing
A. Windows 7 PC has not synced photo stream since September 25
B. Windows 8.1 laptop has not synced since a little before that.
C. I can't upload any photos (.jpegs) to the photo stream. An error pops up saying that they cann't be uploaded as they are not in a format supported by iCloud, even though they are jpegs.
D. Photos are syncing ti my ipad 3 perfectly fine, so clearly there is a problem with my computers but I am totally stumped.
I have un-installed, deleted all icloud photo stream folders, restarted and then re-installed the iCloud control panel on both computers, and it has created new folders and re-synced maybe 30 photos before it stopped again.
I have uninstalled every single Apple program on my Windows 8.1 laptop and reinstalled iTunes, iCloud and Quicktime and that didn't help.
I have toggled the Photo Stream on/off button in setting on my iphone, and that seemed to kick start the sync on my Windows 7 PC this morning, so far I've got 70 photos on my Windows 7 PC and that's where it has stopped but its a really random selection, and doesn't include the photos I took yesterday or today.
Two of my colleagues at work where my Windows 7 PC is located - their photo streams are working fine, both using ios7 and icloud control panel, however their computers are x32 bit.
I have also simply logged out and signed in again multiple times, however that doesn't do anything.
I have unticked the "read-Only" permissions on my photo icloud stream folder, but that didn't help either.
I have followed the troubleshooting from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3989 - however that also did not help.
I have tried changing the folder path for iCloud photo stream, however that did not help either.
I tried the steps from someone who said they spoke to an Apple rep (steps copied from forum and I put them in italic) on this forum: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5381738
Anyway, the Apple rep had me sign out of iCloud CC on my PC.
Then on each iOS devices Settings/iCloud/Delete Account.
Confirmed all the warnings.
Then re-entered my iCloud id and password on the iOS device.
Things restarted and the iOS Photo Streams got loaded with the number of photos that
iCloud has.
Signed in on iCloud on the PC. It synced the same way.
Tried taking pictures on the iPhone and iPad. They synced everywhere.
So I'm back in business.
I just deleted everything on my iOS devices when I exited iCloud.
My interest is the PC syncing when I take a photo on my iPhone.
ME: Okay so these steps again refreshed the photostream on my iPhone 5. I can see that the photos I took yesterday and today have been uploaded to the photo stream as I can see them there on my device. I have also now signed back into iCloud on my Windows 7 PC and it is slowly syncing again, but just recognising the same photos it downloaded previously as per Step 3 which I did just earlier this morning.
I have also just tried uploading photos via the upload folder from my windows 7 PC, and they uploaded perfectly.
This is really, really frustrating. I've tried everything I can find on these forums but nothing has helped fix the issue 100%.
Can anyone offer something else I can try to reslove this issue?

Hi all. I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues. Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem. …without even a re-boot.
Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive. Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab. Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
Open the Users folder.
Open your user folder
Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
Open the Installer Cache folder
In Details view sort on Name
Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco. The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”. Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear. Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
Good luck…
