On Windows, you can also use a card with good, compatible DirectX 9 or 11 drivers. GPU: OpenGL 2.0 that works correctly and is compatible. The ram usage isn’t unusual or leak related, video editing can use a lot of ram that’s why the system requirements are written the way they areĬPU: x86-64 Intel or AMD at least one 2 GHz core for SD, 2 cores for HD, and 4 cores for 4K. So, I think Shotcut has problems working with Windows, but this happens not all the time, but quite often. Can it cause problems?Īlso when I played video inside Shotcut, every play allocated additional 1Gig of memory and didn’t release it, and after closing the project 2.5Gig was on the loose. But in fact it was working and I just started editing another project and when exported it Shotcut had 4.5 Gig, and with all other apps PC worked at 99% memory usage. I exported one video and when Shotcut finished Task Manager marked it as “not responding”. A little push can topple down PC.Īnother bad thing I saw, which is a memory leaks. All exporting with the maximum performance options run on the edge with a cooling fan speed of 95% and CPU usage of 90%. Can it confuse the power saver driver? As I saw with a very bad timing a defragmenter and an antivirus can jump in, and – kaboom, BSoD comes out.

Manager shows CPU that usage goes up but there is no app that uses it. When I start exporting video Shotcut, quite often it disappears from Task Manager’s radars. While my account was blocked for several days because of this my post (they said I typed too fast), I created about 50 videos (thanks to Shotcut!), and had a chance to watch what is going on in the system using PC Health monitor and Task Manager, playing with power options, and here is what I saw. As soon as the temperature of the CPU was about 90% of max the driver just halved the speed until the CPU cools down. I played with power options and saw the driver called Toshiba Power saver regulated power consumption quite well. I don’t use hardware encoder, I tried it but it didn’t make any difference. I think this is more than enough, because Toshiba eco utility shows that it consumes 40-60W while exporting. Anyway, it has NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M and Intel Core i7-3610QM CPU 2.30GHz. At that time it was the fastest in the store. I checked and found that I actually bought it in 2012.
