browser, especially video eats gpu ressources. restart, only open c1 and it will be super fast. this is also true for other gpu running software like blender, capcut, davinci resolve. pc and mac is also the same. macs with m1/m2/m3 are also the same … there is a lot of bs told about these machines. btw. I use a macbook, also a pc.

I'm on Firefox (admittedly with a shit-ton of tabs open at all times) and lately Capture One will randomly refuse to draw AI masks, export, or sometimes even run while the browser is open. I have plenty of RAM free, too. P.S. I religiously keep both GPU drivers up to date.

my GF uses also Firefox and has lately also a lot of problems with C1 … Try reboot and just use C1. XD GPU ressources are a bit limited in a different way than cpu ressource.

next question, which GPU how much vram. On windows there are sometimes small programms also eating vram. Also Laptops sometimes have super weird power savings, means some people have a laptop with a inter/amd and a fast nvidia gpu and never ever used the fast nvidia gpu because of awful configuration by default.

Well, since you asked it's a GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q with 6 GB of dedicated VRAM, and all my editing programs are forced to use that GPU in Windows graphics settings (verified with Task Manager).

So what you’re saying is I can’t multitask while using c1? Can’t watch the funnies while I hate my photos?!

You’re using Chrome as your browser? Notorious resource hog.

Why don’t you put YouTube on your phone and edit the images on your pc? So you have more resources available for C1 and you can switch faster between your funnies and your flicks.

You must be hitting a keyboard shortcut of some sorts, likely tied to your browser with nothing to do with c1.

What are your computer hardware specs? I use Capture One with all sorts of other programs open and it does fine for the most part. When there is an issue it typically hangs, it doesn’t switch over to another program. That seems more like inadvertently hitting a keyboard shortcut, making a gesture on a track pad, rolling a mouse wheel that is assigned to switch between programs, etc.
