pausing a job and then resuming it stops processing the video at the frame it was paused, so it’s just a still image of where it’s paused but the rest of the audio finishes

I’ve noticed that when my previews loop, the original _starts_ playing a split second before the preview, but once they’re both going they sync up just fine.

Maybe I’m blind, but how do we pause an export? I don’t see a pause button.

It’s to the far right side of the processing/exporting video line (right next to the three dots at the end)

not sure if its the same thing but when preview / original is out of sync, i change the preview frame and it will be in sync again, e.g. 5f to 1s. it works only sometimes.

It looks nothing like the Nvidia Experience Icon, this icon looks like it was made from a free mobile app to mimic desktop icons from Windows XP era.

I have no idea how they thought this was a good choice.

People complain because they are entitled to not like something as it isn’t free, we pay for annual upgrades upfront, so our input whether it’s positive or negative is needed.

I personally wish they kept the original UI and logo from the Video Enhanced AI, it was perfect. But every time they tamper with it, it’s 4 steps backwards. Like the old saying, if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it. Now it looks cheap and unprofessional, looks like one of those free shady looking softwares from Windows XP. Lol

Not entirely true in this version the preview now screams that my one drive is not available then the preview disappears gone is my latest preview. I had hoped one drive is not elementary but it is i belief this is due to the project feature where all my previews are suddenly kept. this happens when i close my laptop then open it and some new magic is happening

I clicked on one drive the output is back in the menu I must say nxv3 with protheus did not look right but when i use scale 4 for nxv3 in the secundary magic happens

I can blame topaz about pperformance and user interfaces, but Let’s first start blaming Microsoft windows 11 Do not fall from your chair eventhough it looks like anything build in Seatlle nowadays blows your mind airplanes windows 11 interfaces … [Former Microsoft developer says Windows 11’s performance is “comically bad,” even with monster PC | TechSpot](https://www.techspot.com/news/102601-former-microsoft-developer-windows-11-performance-comically-bad.html)

If you set Constant Bitrate (instead of Dynamic) in the Preview and Export settings does it still happen?

It’s in between the completion % and the three dots for me.

Comparing it to Nivida just because it’s same colour is a poor comparison for your argument, it’s about the quality of the icon/logo rather than the colour of it, I have no issue it being green, I have an issue with it’s quality.

Windows XP was good for its time, but the logos/icons were very dated, they would not hold to today’s business standards. If a business used a logo similar to the ones from back then; I’d question whether they should even have a job in graphic design.

FFV1 is a variable bitrate codec.

@kyle.topazlabs

After further testing with FFV1 when using a mkv container the framerate is constant.  
When using a mov container the framerate is variable.

I’ve also noticed when I get the VFR error the saved file has the original date of the source file.  
When getting the CFR using mkv container the file date is the date of processing.

That would be true if it was just one person producing the whole product, but the reality is they would have just given that task to the art department, who probably don’t have the skills to code or do anything in the core product, so your whole statement is just irrelevant.

Codecs use macroblocks, which have to be Even numbers.
