Nvidia RTX 5080 Graphics Card | But MEP 2026 suddenly stopped using it

Apollo89x wrote on 12/8/2025, 1:45 PM

I have MEP 2026.

Via settings, it's already set to import/process/and export using this Graphics-Card.

But when exporting a video (as Mp4) I get the following message on the top-bar:
"Mixdown (Please update your graphics-card)"

And it's taking literally 30+ minutes to export 3-minutes of footage!

___________

Does anyone know how to fix this?

I cannot "update my graphics card", as the RTX 5080/90 is literally the top-spec card in the entire world currently!

**It was all working fine for the previous weeks/months | My footage + export settings have not changed at all today | However this has suddenly started happening now, (including for all different footage I try to export)!

Are you using the new Nvidia driver 591.44?

Go back to driver version: GeForce Game Ready Driver 581.80

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/257497/

The current NVIDIA driver is not compatible with Magix video editing software.

Hello (to both of you), but yes, I was using the latest studio driver (591.44)

I will downgrade now though accordingly.

*Is this issue a Magix glitch though, (which Magix are planning to fix) | Or is the issue on Nvidia's side?

I don't know that yet, at least.

Let's see who can clear that up.

I can confirm though that this was the issue (and only issue).

Have rolled-back to the previous version :: And it's all working fine now.

Since this issue was already raised in https://www.magix.info/us/forum/beware-latest-nvidia-gtx-591-44-drivers--1350824/ I will close this thread to prevent further duplication.
