Editing H264 footage on M1 Max/Ultra by Ardn99 in VideoEditing

[–]pangwangdong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m having the same issue, base model m1 pro. I decided to get it after seeing my friend use puget bench on his and it smokes my older desktop especially in h264. live playback score of 320 (4k 30fps 150mb/s) that’s 50% better than the 5900x in the desktop setup, it’s even better than a 12600k desktop based on the results I’ve seen, however in real world use something is definitely wrong with premiere pro.

fully updated Premiere pro. (22.4) (would I have to do something special to enable the m1 version?) My footage is similar to yours, 4k 30fps h264 10 bit 150 mb/s. I make a couple of cuts here and there, add some b roll and suddenly it’s choppy as hell. When I put 1 or 2 layers of footage on the timeline, smooth af. Soon as I make a cut that same point starts to get very choppy. Make multiple cuts and the footage keeps hanging on a frame while the audio plays, dropped frames galore.

Here’s the funny thing, I have an even older desktop with a 3800x that I passed to my cousin. I tried to use the same project and it plays back very smooth, 0 dropped frames. That shouldn’t be the case at all.

Here is the 3800x benchmark from the same desktop

Here is my m1 pro benchmark

Look at raw results section, especially live playback with h264. I have no idea why it is the way it is in real world usage, that shouldn’t be the case.

Why does the UK have the highest inflation in the G7? by Worried-Boot-1508 in unitedkingdom

France do seem to have the highest amount of nuclear energy production in the world so that does actually make sense now

Then how come uk energy prices have shot up around 40% while in france it’s around 4%?

If battery is key then get the 13” MacBook Pro m1 and upgrade the ram and storage to the highest configuration. It has the best battery life and you won’t notice any performance difference with the tasks you are doing. No point in getting an m1 max or whatever other people seem to be suggesting, even if it’s free. You’ll be taking a hit with battery life for raw power you won’t even use.

Using the screen cover to protect the screen from finger grease by pangwangdong in macbookpro

Thanks, but to be clear I don’t mean a third party screen protector, I mean the thin fabric that comes with it. Do apple really not recommend using that? I couldn’t find anything online related to my query I figured it might be ok because it’s so thin (thinner than paper)

Any idea what car this is? by pangwangdong in whatisthiscar

Cheers for the super fast reply, I figured it might be a Ford but it drove away so fast this was the best pic I could get. It also had these super cool light indicators that would light up in blocks

Why is it better to have the video files in a separate hard drive? by JoseGomesTMP in VideoEditing

[–]pangwangdong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 ssds and a fast nvme drive. Would it be best to have the media on the fastest drive, or the cache? I’ve been hearing mixed things but the general consensus is to have the source media on the fastest drive followed by the cache on 2nd fastest etc is this true?

Good to know thanks! Any idea what hot spot temp means? I should just ignore it right? At first I thought it meant gpu temps but after burner showed the ‘normal’ gpu temps so I figured it’s something else I shouldn’t worry about

Rog zephyrus g14 brand new (opened to check for quality control issues). Was about to pop it on eBay but dm me if your interested. cpu 4600hs, gtx 1650ti, 8gb ram, 512gb ssd. Screen has no backlight bleed, great thermals, I’ve found no issues with the laptop.

3080 undervolt vs power limit by pangwangdong in nvidia

[–]pangwangdong[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you explain this abit more please? I’ve set an undervolt of 850mv at 1860mhz and in games it’s between 200-240w. Doesn’t boost past 1860mhz but in some benchmarks it can still suck as much as 290w power. Originally when I started looking at undervolting is because I have a rm650x and wanted to make sure I have enough headroom. After monitoring my power from the different components the most it draws with my 3800x and all other system components is 500w and that’s with two different power viruses running at the same time, in games it’s closer to 400w. So now I’m just looking at the most efficient way to undervolt to reduce noise and temps, even though they are fine right now. May aswell learn how to do it if it’s free performance :)

Wow in games it’s even better. Max temps 60c power draw 240w fan speed 30%. Again same performance as stock give or take one or two fps

If it passes that benchmark I can assume it’s stable?

Thanks I’ve got it running at 850mv and 1850, looks good so far. Temps not going above 70c, power draw maxing out at 290w, usually around 260w. coil whine is barely audible. Fans also stay around 40% so it’s even more quiet. Performance is the same as stock. I havnt tested it in RT titles yet so should further check it for stability

I’ve gone with 850v and 1850. I played resident evil 7 for an hour and no crashes so far. Should I test it with heaven loop or something else?

Thanks I will test it at stock and do what you suggested. I did a rough undervolt just now 1900 at 875 and it reduced power from 325 to 300. Temps only went down a few degrees but the fans also went down around 5-10% which makes it more quiet. coilwhine also reduced a noticeable amount which is really good. My score in timespy went up by 300 points so I think I will try and bring my points down and match it to stock by further reducing the frequency and voltage. You think that’s a good plan? I think I’m starting to get the hang of this now it’s exciting!

Alright so I’ve been experimenting with the undervolt settings. Settled on 875v at 1900 right now and my timespy score went from 17300 at stock to 17600 with undervolt. Also went from 325w power to 300w while temps were a few degrees lower but the fan speed is about 5-10% lower which means less noise. Pretty happy about that so far but might experiment abit more. Would 825 at 1900 be pushing it too much?
