Re: Magic doesn't work when accessed via Remote Desktop

Hi, Eric, Thank you so much for the support! I have read the info under the link you've provided. The solution with creating a custom batch file that would disconnect the remote session and then launch Magic have helped! However, the code was not as straight-forward as mentioned on the forum. After ...

Re: Magic doesn't work when accessed via Remote Desktop

UPDATE. I have made an experiment again. I opened the project on the host computer DIRECTLY. Then I went to another PC and connected via Remote Desktop. As I've written before, the visuals were OK. I couldn't play - when I clicked the play button it just fast-forwarded through the project. But the e...

Re: Magic doesn't work when accessed via Remote Desktop

I was thinking what else can I test and realized that I have Cinebench R15. When I opened it via Remote Desktop there was the same story as with Magic - it didn't see the GPU, while when opened directly on the PC it works well. So, the situation looks similar to Magic...

Re: Magic doesn't work when accessed via Remote Desktop

As I've mentioned above - fishgl.com, also VLC Player. At least HWMonitor shows the activity of GPU. Also, as I've written earlier - if I open the Magic project on the host PC directly and then access the machine via Remote Desktop - it also works until I re-load the project. When reloaded it doesn'...

Re: Magic doesn't work when accessed via Remote Desktop

Just tried editing the Nvidia Control Panel. The only GPU related option I've found was "Use GPU for OpenGL rendering". I switched it on for Magic, didn't help. Then I switched it on in global settings, didn't helps either... Restarted the machine, still no luck. Hope you'll be able to com...

Re: Magic doesn't work when accessed via Remote Desktop

Does your laptop have optimus? Thank you for the prompt reply! I don't think I know what Optimus is, so not sure if my laptop has it. BTW, I was using my laptop to render the videos with Magic too and there were no problem except slow speed and overheating, that's why I assembled a rendering PC (wh...

Remote Desktop works fine, however, when I open a Magic project it shows a very weird graphics, does not ...

Re: CPU vs GPU for rendering?

Thank you very much for the reply!
Yes, I am aware about the write speed. I think I will use a small NVMe drive as a rendering destination.

CPU vs GPU for rendering?

I am still considering the new PC build. My main goal is video rendering with Magic, I am not going to do any live work. The main objective is increasing the rendering speed. At the moment the rendering speed is about 10 - 20 FPS for 1080p. So, the questions are: 1. Based on the specifics of Magic, ...

New Computer for Rendering with Magic

Hello, fellows! I realize that my question is rather abstract, however, maybe somebody can give me a suggestion. I am intensively using Magic for making MP4 videos and rendering takes quite a time on my laptop, moreover the air going out of the vent is extremely hot, so I am afraid to burn my machin...
