Thanks, Brent. I’ll get that information for you, but as I said, even my consumer level PC with 12 gigs of RAM, i5 core processor, integrated Intel graphics card, etc., while slow, never caused these problems. Let me run Speccy and I’ll get you the details. For now I can tell you it’s running
64 bit Windows 10 with updates,
1 stick of 16 gig of DDR-4 RAM (soon to be 32 gigs),
i7 processor (6700 version. Yeah, I know…),
CUDA (which, after the encode failed and I re-opened the project was told by PPro that my PC doesn’t have CUDA and would start in software mode, another glitch the other PC never had).
And, yes, I did install the CUDA driver from Nvidia and updated the drivers for the new graphics card (GeForce 1050).I guess that’s everything you asked for, actually. Thanks again.
Oh, and I just got this 4 days ago. I’ve got 11 more days to get it right before I bring it back.

Are you exporting using Media Encoder or Premiere Pro? If Media Encoder, when you start it up do you see if your Red Giant plugins are loading on the splash screen? Also, make sure you uncheck “Import sequences natively” under Preferences>General in Media Encoder.
It’s normal not to see grain when the video isn’t actually playing in Premiere Pro. If you scrub the timeline you should see it, though.

ok let me put it this way. I have 3 HDD’s. I have PPro on one, I will put my project file and media cache files on a second one, and my actual raw video files on the third. On which HDD should I render to?
-
I have the box set to max. power (no energy saving) and PPro to performance over memory. So, should I leave it alone or disable it? Is it possible they work in tandem or will it always be one or the other being used?

Chris’ suggestion to set vlc to opengl video is what fixed the problem for me.

Thanks, Todd. The PC I got the HDD from isn’t really that old, less than 3 years, and again, I’m never gonna make the all time great documentary or anything. If I lose files in the middle of a project of mine it’ll suck but it’s not like you guys who would have to explain to your clients what happened.
Only thing I’m trying to find now is how to configure the HDD’s, as in where to put Program, Projects, actual files, which HDD to render to, etc. I keep getting links to keyboard shortcuts so I must be wording my question wrong. I’ll keep looking.

P.S. Sorry, Chris Wright has given me a ton of great advice, but I meant to thank Jeff Pulera for the Dell suggestion.

Thanks for the reply, Brent. My 3 HDD’s are all different sizes. Also, after 3 years I still haven’t produced a single frame of relevant video so I’m not concerned with losing “valuable” files. I will, however, format that one HDD. And thanks for the link.
Cheers! -
You should update your CUDA driver. I’m surprised Dave didn’t mention that!

As a follow up, Switch’s colors were way off, too yellow/orange. Scratch installed, but there’s no executable file and no option to choose it from the list of video players on my PC. Weird.
