The kicker? You can keep every single setting in this new profile as “Use global setting”. Encode times of 900 seconds dropped to 300, and 5 FPS playback changed to 60 FPS. We hate to show a “broken” performance graph, but it’s important to highlight because the issue continues to survive.Īfter simply adding the Vegas profile to the NVIDIA Control Panel, the issue of poor LUT performance disappeared. We continued to talk with both companies multiple times since December, but nothing improved on the performance front.Īfter putting twenty graphics cards through the gauntlet of revised tests, more was revealed about the issue. Something seemed broken, so we reached out to MAGIX and NVIDIA to figure out what was going on. Instead of 60 FPS playback with a LUT FX filter, we instead saw 1~5 FPS. We overhauled our test scripts, and got back to work on performance testing – only to run into an immediate roadblock.įrom the get-go, AMD Radeon GPUs had no problems in our testing, but the story was different for NVIDIA. Work on this article began in December, following publication of our Radeon Pro WX 8200 review and a some good feedback from the community. We conducted follow-up testing with this version, and have found that the issues detailed here continue to persist. Considerations & Potential Performance RoadblocksĪpril 30 Addendum: One day after this article was published, MAGIX released the fifth major update to Vegas Pro 16, build 424. If you have suggestions on further improving our Vegas tests, please leave a comment. We benchmark with about 25 pieces of software, and we’re masters of very few. We’re not going to claim that the performance testing seen on this page is the best it can be, but it’s improving over time, as we become more familiar with the software.
