Help! 14 hours for a 48 second clip! Something is very wrong

14 hours for a 48 second clip!

This is an Intel i7 3.4 Ghz Win10 X64 w/24 gigs of DDR4 ram, card is ASUS 1660 GTX, 6GB Vram, w/Turing 

DirectX version 12. CUDA v. 10

Clip properties: 1920x960, MP4, h264 (NVENC) codec.

At first DAIN said "Out of Memory" on a 6GB card that had more than 4GB free,.. when it was requesting only 500mb of Vram.. So I adjusted the section/padding down to 200/80 and it worked.

14 hours for 48 secs = 17.5 secs per frame = 788 hours aka 32 days for a 90 minute movie; or 87 hours (3+days) for a 5.5 minute clip.


That's ridiculous and un-doable for me!





Something seems very very wrong here.

Well, my pc is 2060 and 18 frames/hour. I don't konw how to see my CUDA version, but I know we are both slow.

a GeForce RTX 2060? And you get 18 frames an HOUR? I'm getting 205 frames/hour.. so it should've taken 6 hours, not 14...

and here's how to get your CUDA version: "NVidia control panel' > 'Help' > 'System Information' and click on the 'components' tab":


Thank you so much. I'm going to see what the hell is.

My information is same as yours, but I don't know why it is tooooooo slow. I have no idea about this problem.

This is my settings, what about yours

I did not choose "Interpolation 4x";.. I chose "Interpolation 2x", going from 25fps to 50fps. Section size on mine was 200, padding was 80. I can probably increase those, but I get "Out of Memory" in Split-frames mode if I leave the defaults to 500/200, even with a 6gb card.

I noticed you're going from 23.976 (24fps) fps to 95.. then telling DAIN to go back down to 60?? Why? You should probably just go for "Interpolation 2x" to get 47.952‬ (48fps), or even manually set the final frame rate to 59/94 (60fps).

I am guessing the 4x interpolation (instead of 2x) and forcing DAIN to convert from 95fps to 60fps is why yours is taking so long.

I wonder if we had CUDA version 9 (that they used to test) and a Pascal (not Turing) based graphics card, if it would work faster. I also wonder about virtual memory, input resolutions, different imported codecs supported, etc. There's too many variables.

Well, because I make MAD video and I hope the video can 60 fps. I learn the way from  a website video uploader and his 2080 Ti works well. Or MAYBE I should interpolation 2x and select 'create 60 fps verion of movie' ? However , TONIGHT I well try to use your way and wish me render faster. LOLS

I have a 2080 Super, and I get a frame roughly every 10 seconds. The stitching in the end takes way longer however. I got a 3 second clip in roughly 2 hours, the frames were already done after like 10 minutes tho.

And this is the result that it has run 25mins , yep,  just 7 frames.


"tried to allocate 384.00 MiB, 4.32 GiB already allocated; 26.63 MiB free"

on a 6GB card.. it only needed 384 MiB.. only 4.32G was used out of the 6.. so 1.68G should still be usable, and it only asked for 384Mb....... but it says only 26Mb free.. ???????

6G-4.32G= 1.68G, not 26mb.

ow dude you are making anime opening too ? so do i , im  doing a 1 minites and 30 second dororo  first op1 and  i get  2161 frame. I can get maybe 5 minutes per frame .... can i boost up my process speed? (1day 288frame and i got 2161 frame to go ... )(i5-7400)(16GB Ram)(GTX1050TI4GB)

well, maybe 4 gigs memories is quite small for this project. Or it will be very slow. 

The number of section size and padding is very important.

Yep it is too less. But i already figure out my best setting 335/150 for section size / section padding and it give me 15 second per frame .

And i'm still finding the best amout for my GPU , hope i can get better amout for better performance.

You are not alone. I have a 1080 Ti, and DAINAPP is slow to the point of being unusable. A single movie would take weeks. A 1080 Ti can't even handle 1080p video without running out of memory. Don't buy a new graphics card for this program. It is clear that HUGE improvements are needed for it to be a useful program for consumers (the people who don't have spare 2080 Tis that they can leave running for weeks).

For this program to actually be useful, the devs are going to need to improve speed by 10x and cut memory usage in half, which I don't think is going to happen for many months, if ever. Still a cool proof of concept though.

MAYBE this program is running for pascal not turning. I'm thinking about tesla K80 and this card may be better.

any updates brother Fresh?
