Topic: HOW TO SET GPU FOR SHADERS
Hi folks! I'm using VDJ in a laptop with Nvidia dedicated card, but VDJ uses only Intel UHD grafics. How to force VDJ to use the Nvidia GPU instead Intel integrated grafics?

Thnks in advance!

You can also use the 'skinUseLowPowerGPU' setting from within VDJ.

It has always been a bit unclear to me: as VDJ extensively uses the GPU for stems, is the GPU also used for shaders etc? And does it make a difference when you attach an external screen or beamer?

Shaders will use the gpu if the skin/video output is using the gpu, which you can select with this option.

This almost calls for a recall of a legendary Facebook group reply:
VDJ user: I don't think that's right. How can you possible know this??
Adion: Because I coded it that way
:-D

The CTO text under Adion's stars is almost invisible when using the forum dark mode.
