Hi!
I just bought a new laptop for realtime stem seperation, but it doesn't use GPU when trying to do that, ending up with the seperation being extremely slow.
I have made sure that I have newest Nvidia drivers on my laptop.
I have noticed that VDJ checks "Don't use GPU" setting everytime, even when I uncheck it.

RTX 3050 4GB @ v527.56
16GB DDR4

There are a couple of places on your computer where you can configure which programs use which graphics.
One is via the NVIDIA Control Panel, and the other is via Windows Control Panel (System/Display/Graphics).

I just looked more carefully into this. It DOES use my RTX GPU, but it crashes in few seconds after it starts stem seperation and fallbacks to CPU.
I am getting Stems engine error 583/6 when it crashes.

RTX3050 doesn't work with stems. I had a laptop with the Ti version and it simply doesn't have enough vram hence VDJ keeps reverting to CPU.
It's a very low powered card.
This should be highlighted as the assumption is that all RTX cards are capable which isn't the case.

Thanks for information, that really sucks. Hopefully they can do some tweaking to their software so it could work even with 4gb vram.
Definitely wouldn't call it "very" low powered card though, it is more powerful than 1060.
Thanks VDJ for misleading system requirements...

Yes the FAQ needs updated as all it says if stems won't work on a RTX or GTX card is to update the drivers, and that doesn't work with the RTX3050 unfortunately.

I had to end up returning the laptop as I specifically bought it for realtime stems analysis.

The desktop PC I'm using to type this message has 4GB and runs stems 2.0 without issue (GTX1650) so it's not purely the amount of RAM.

Thanks for the info.
There is quite a difference though between the desktop and mobile cards (well according to my son anyway who is an avid gamer) so it may be the architecture of the card itself.

power consumption in a desktop gfx card is like 4* that of a laptop

It appears that by default more ram is used on the RTX 3000 series compared to the 1000/1600 series, which might explain why 4GB is enough for 1000/1600 but not for 3000.
We're still investigating to see if we can lower the memory use for RTX 3000 cards with 4GB ram.
