I should have been more clear. The render engine seems fine, but exporting with HWE, are you using your 5770 for that in h.264?

Incredibly helpful. You've pointed me in the right direction and I'm thankful! I'm having an issue, as of Catalina only, where HWE isn't enabled in Premiere - Ive set all the projects up using Metal and/or OpenCL to see if either helped, but the export for h.264 or .265 is disabled - both for a...

No forgiveness necessary! Always happy to read a bit more...

Wanted to ask you how you enabled gpu acceleration in Premiere w/ the Radeon VII w/ your hackintosh - Not seeing many options for that via Console

Howdy Jay! Happy Weekend to ya! Very much appreciate your response, and taking the time to help. Will go through that link as well! I was manually editing it in Text Mode, but it kept reverting back to 'Yes' versus Detect, likely because the GUI said Yes and it was overwriting it. Setting...

Yessir! Thanks again for your thoughts and direction. FWIW, I picked up two Radeon VII on Black friday for $320 a piece - I can't find them for less than $450 now, but it seems that the VII price will drop. The 5770 XT is certainly an interesting proposition since its H.264/5 rendering is...

Exactly, the editors are all using i7 iMacs w/ external GPUs, as editing in 1/8th resolution isn't problematic. We also shoot in codecs that don't require proxies, etc - so the editing is not the problem - it's having people sitting there waiting on something to export that's the problem - So...

Well now we're into business strategy! I actually don't agree that the Mac Pros are very future proof or economical, but not something I'm here to argue. No one we know in coloring or post production arestill using Macs anymore, unless, again they're still in full-blown production work and...

I dont think you're wrong - but these are export and render machines only, I forgot to mention that - we're less hamstrung if one goes down. I also forgot to mention that we *have* been using an i9 9900 and a Radeon 7 for the last 6 months with no issue. I plan on this getting us through a...

You've been incredibly helpful here! Thanks so much for responding. I'm the CEO of a 16 person app dev and marketing house... we have a 6 person editing and production team (Stole ALL of them for movie production...)... we're the people Apple expects to pay $20-$40k for a sub par Mac Pro -...

More than happy to be wrong!! Glad I asked. I see it’s really only for exporting, which makes tons of sense - We are running an editing bay in the office with 9900K and a Radeon 7 - exporting 6k video. This will save us some time! Thanks for replying!

is there an actual advantage to doing this? My understanding is that OS X can only utilize one of these cards at a time. I’d love to be wrong about that!! :)

Hello all! Searched for a while for the answer for this, but I either can't find or can't understand the answer. I have 10.15.2 working with not known or significant issues. In the process of fixing the audio bug in L/E by upgrading lilu and WEG, I realized that my kext folder on my EFI...

Did you two fix this? Same issue here! Display audio, no 1/8th inch onboard audio.
