I'd been having persistent problems with low frame rates in Jitter 1.7, esp compared to what I could manage in Max 4.6 and Jitter 1.6

I am using a Lenovo W500, which has Intel graphics (Mobile Intel 4 series) AND ATI graphics (FireGL 5700), hot switchable. OS is Vista Ultimate. It's kind of annoying that I can't get Jitter working to its full potential, given that I bought this laptop especially for video processing!

With most of my patches I get an error along the lines of "jit_gl_support_init: float pixel formats: GL Error: Invalid enumeration"

I decided to test both ATI and Intel modes, using Vade's Jitter Optimization patches (

), and here are my results. Basically, only the Basic patch using Intel graphics was free of errors.

Seems like either your driver is not supporting recent OpenGL versions or somehow Jitter is not appropriately detecting it. To find out what you have, you can use some apps form GLEW:

It will tell you driver, OpenGL version, extensions supported etc. If it says you in fact do have an opengl version > 1.2, then something is amiss and you should contact

I've checked with OpenGL extension viewer, and OpenGL2.1 is fully supported. See:

After all the, the GL in FireGL stands for something...

I have a feeling that they screwed up with openGL in max5, i also get no hardware acceleration and the same errors on the secondary monitor on both my laptop and desktop. Respectively Nvidia GeForce Go 7700 and Nvidia GeForce 7950 GT. Both in max 4.6 worked fine.

Please GPVillamil forward here if you get feedback from the support. TY

Wait, i fiddled with my graphics card control panel and managed to get acceleration, on nvidia control panel the setting is called MULTI-DISPLAY/ MIXED-GPU ACCELERATION -> set to Compatibility performance mode. Dunno for ATI cards.
