Hi everybody, I had a little question for you.
I’ve seen anywhere on the internet that Adobe CS5 (especially Adobe Premiere and Media Encoder, as I’m doing video editing) support Cuda accelerated video encoding… Well I thought that would be great but actually, since I’m using it, it’s apparently not working the way it should :-/
As I write this, I’m currently encoding a video, and I’m making some “live” screenshots right now to show you what I mean.
So, when I created my project on Adobe Premiere, I made sure that the Mercury GPU thing was selected :
I do my stuff with my video… I choose some H.264 codec to encode my video, and export it with Adobe Media Encoder (hell yeah, you recognized, it’s a 3D Vision video capture) :
But look at the time ! 3 HOURS ! And, at the same time I though that my processor’s fan was getting louder… Indeed :
My i7 920 is completely taken by the video encoding… But, where’s the GPU ??? I don’t really understand !
Here’s the detailled information about my NVidia Stuff (gotten from the control pannel, in french, sorry) :

Soo… Did I completely miss the use of Cuda or something is wrong ?
