Hey guys,

New user here. I'm getting the GPU unavailable message from Skanect (attached)

I'd appreciate it if someone could help me to resolve this issue and also help me understand what good resolving it will do.

I have a 15-inch, mid 2015 MacBook Pro. Graphics card is Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB.

Thanks

FYI I followed the instructions to install the latest Nvidia drivers and restarted my computer, but still no luck.

Hi Jeff,

Only CUDA-compatible GPUs are supported. The Intel Iris Pro does not
support CUDA. You'd need a Mac with an NVidia graphics card to use the
GPU acceleration, otherwise you'll have to use the CPU fusion. Note
that you can use it with a low quality live to keep a good FPS, and
then reprocess it in higher quality offline.
