Re: How many cores (threads) in a Mac Studio?

12 for the M2 Max. If it was a M2 Ultra, it would be 24.

Ah, OK, you have the renderer. Thanks.

Re: PCM track/length problem when creating package with still

Side question: what is your post-production workflow for the Atmos content? Let's say that the Atmos content is done in Avid Pro Tools, what processing is done afterwards so that you can bring Atmos in DCP-o-matic? My question is triggered by your "school's composition department": I'm in ...

Re: Encoding server basic questions

In my experience, network bandwidth is a big factor. So check if all your Macs are using gigabit bandwidth through the network switch/router. It's quite possible that you're choking the send bandwidth on the host computer and you won't get better performance until the host can send more data. This i...

Re: Testers wanted for GPU-accelerated encoding in DCP-o-matic

Is it a question of using a Nvidia driver? By default, Ubuntu won't use a proprietary driver.

I have a choice of Nvidia drivers to install: 535, 525, 470, 390 and some other "server" drivers. In any case, 535 is now installed, but the GPU is still not available in DOM.

Re: Testers wanted for GPU-accelerated encoding in DCP-o-matic

Thanks Aaron.

So I found an old Alienware laptop with a series 900 GPU. Installed Ubuntu 22.04, installed DOM 2.17.8.

The GPU preference tab is asking for a License and a License Server. I imagine you will send that info to me. As for the GPU selection, should I already see the GPU in that list?

Re: Testers wanted for GPU-accelerated encoding in DCP-o-matic

  • Can it be already possible to mix CPU-based encode servers and GPU-based encode servers?
  • Can the same encode server offers both CPU and GPU for encoding?
  • Will AMD FirePro GPU be eventually supported?
In any case, I'm interested in testing.
