Pr Pro running on Windows 10 Pro - Version 14.7 + 14.8
Ryzen 3600 + GTX 1650 Super 4GB + 64GB 3000MHz + Everything Premiere-related on different Sata SSDs / M2 NVMe SSDs

Overusage of the GPU: Extending clips or elements on the timeline creates lag of the whole computer due to GPU being used at 100% - Mainly on 14.7, no solution found.
GPU freezes every now and then during playback (black screen but audio still plays back) - Solution: restart premiere.

Edit: these problems occur mostly when working with 8bit and 10bit H264 footage. No issue when editing braw.

The latest stable version for me so far is still 14.3.2 (which relies mostly on the CPU)

I’m flagging up a problem with a recent NVIDIA update for anyone that is experiencing export problems.

1. I’m using PPr/ Me 14.7 and Ae 17.5, running on an Intel Xenon w-2123 (3.60GHz) CPU and a Quadro P6000.

2. I updated my Quadro driver from 460.89 to v 461.09 at the start of the week. Editing after on PPr was untroubled. I also made a couple of basic new Mogrts in Ae.

3. All was fine for a day or so until I exported a project via Me that included one of the new mogrts made since updating my Quadro. The export hung at the new mogrt as if I had hit pause (there was no ‘programme not responding’ warnings). But the entire screen had frozen and I had to use Task Manager to close Me. But doing that caused the PC to stop responding and I had to use the PC’s hardware reboot button.

4. After re-trying to export after restart (both via Me and direct from PPr - and the same problems) and after some basic troubleshooting (including a fresh reinstall of v461.09), I copied my project and used our secondary edit station and it all exported smoothly.

5. I uninstalled v461.09 and ran a clean reinstalled of 460.89 and I was able to export the project without an issue.

This tends to suggest an issue in the new 461.09 driver that Adobe might want to share with NVIDIA.

have a MacPro 2019 (7,1) with two Vega II graphics with Premiere 14.5 on a Catalina 10.15.7
I have 10 bit video files and while working with these files I see a lot of banding on the sky.
I have tried different configs to understand the issue.
My sequence settings use Maximum Bit Depth.
When the Metal engine is ON, there is no diffrence with the OFF state at the Program Monitor.
And when I render with the Maximum Depth / 16bpc the output is same, a lot of banding.
But When I swicth my project settings to openCL. I immidiately see the difference. The sky gradient is perfect. Even if i switch off the MAximum depth in sequence settings the banding is slightly better then the Metal engine.
Check out the following images:

when I render out these clips with Maximum Depth /16 bpc the banding occurs when using Metal on the final output whereas when opencl is used output is perfect. You can check the files from the below link.

PS: When these same files checked on a PC with a 1080 graphics adapter (cuda engine). Maximum bith depth turned on there is no banding and rendered with maximum bith depth, output file is perfect.

Seems like an AMD / Metal releated issue.

Any thoughts ?

After spending all day testing and troubleshooting I have finally determined that the GPU Acceleration for Rolling titles is broken.

I have 10 machines with 24 cores, 128GB ram and RTX 2080TI video cards running windows 10, latest premiere version with latest Nvidia studio drivers., SSD drives and 16GB fibre channel storage.

I finally narrowed things down to a simple test and shot a little video of my screen so there would be no conflict with any screen capture software.

If you make a 9 line rolling text everything works just fine, but when you add the 10th line the GPU is broken and it can barely play it in the timeline and rendering takes as much as 20x longer and does not use the GPU at all.

Our current project requires us to have a rolling title with 4500 lines of text running for 2.5 hours.

Premiere only works with 9 lines of text.

I can turn off GPU acceleration and it can render faster but still takes forever.

Hello,

I've now realized how many problems related to premiere have stemmed from GPU CUDA Acceleration, one of which being premiere displaying incorrect frames with both playback and scrubbing. In fact, it even shows the wrong portion of the entire clip, so all of my masking effects are out of place and make no sense. When I turn on Software Encoding, everything works fine but it's all at a snail-paced editing speed. I'm editing a music video and I have a lot of effects that require GPU Acceleration (along with a lot of speed ramping), so please please PLEASE Adobe (or Nvidia), make GPU Acceleration more reliable, it's a great tool and would be so beneficial to users IF it worked properly. Thanks!
