Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Magic Bullet Suite 12.1 and MC 8.6 / Radeon 5870

 

Since 8.5 you need a graphics card with at least 2 gigs ram for the ACPL library to load, (Avid Co-Processing Library).  Without it AVID rendering is about 50 or 60 times slower with BCC 10 effects, and you get lots of hanging on render as well.

I wonder if this isn't what is causing your problems with Magic Bullet looks.

Where I work we just went to Quadro 4000 cards, and the difference is night and day.  The PC versions are available on ebay and amazon (used) for about 100 bucks.  If you are running Maverics or better, you can use the PC version (if you don't mind loosing the option boot capabilities). The Mac version is around 200 bucks, and you get your apple logo and option boot.

Others have posted about some more expensive cards that are even better, but you can't beat the bang for the buck you get with AVID on the Quadro 4000.

They did tell me they had some issues with previous versions that were fixed, and were surprised I was having these issues.

They (RG) are pointing at the graphics card since it's not on the Avid  approved list, but I have never had any issues with avid or anything else running with this gfx card.

Reminds me of the old online days when CMX would say the problem was with the switcher, and GVG would point at the edit controller.

My only thing is that like I said I have never had the problem with the 5870 before.

I am going to try it on my MBPro, which is at 8.5.3 and assuming that works (whioch it should) I'll try and upgrade that to 8.6.
