2.0 performance issues, new Encore user, typically do AE work

I keep great tabs on my machine and have just recently started to learn Encore because it came with my Production Studio Premium. I don't typically do the final authoring at the prod house, I'm the effects guy and this laptop run AE like a champ (HP nx9420).
But when I run Encore I take tremendous performance hits... brand new project lags a little bit, the Library is pointless because the scroll speed is incredibly slow. With that closed, and nothing yet imported to make the project, Encore seems ok. Add one clip, start one menu setup and now I wait forever for Encore to catch up to what I am doing.
Is there known issues? Tweaks? Performance tips/tricks out there? I used the software for about 4 hours tonight, forcing process kills to get back to a usable state every so often.
Any help would be great! Thanks guys!

Yeah I know all that.
Appreciate the post though... others that are not hardware savvy might no know this... I am more a hardware guru than software.
I got this laptop with 1gb, and I am doing no multitasking. Well, I was at first, but after the performance issues I totally stopped trying to even run PS and create all the graphics ahead of time instead of as needed.
After looking at it more over the last couple nights I have decided what What I am seeing is a memory leak... its random, I've not been able to isolate it to anything specific yet. I have not been able to duplicate the issue anywhere but I do know this: if i run it, i it will happen. Encore takes typical 20-40k on Process Mem Usage under Task Manager. Every time I've hit this slow down I hit Task Manager and Encore is using 150-400k Mem Usage, the really bad hits it takes even more. Even after quitting out I have to reboot to clear memory, or run a ram scrubber to clear it all out...
Thanks for the look at my post, and the help!

  • A new Encore user's experience.

    Being as this is a louge this might be a place to share.
    First, I am not a pro, but I have been using Premiere since 4.2 to produce simple teaching videos and over time have gotten to where I have done more fun stuff and even a couple of events, for money even.  Until recently I created my DVDs using Sony DVD Architech.
    So all week I've been editing video from a race held near here recently (motorsports, 24 Hours of LeMons) where I attended with a team with the idea of getting photos and video and putting together something the team and friends would enjoy.  I got some good in-car video, and some not so good, but that's another matter.
    For this project I decided to finally try using Encore to create the DVD.  The Sony software didn't do Blu-Ray and I wanted to try that, too.  So I start up Encore and when it finally loaded I started a project in the usual Adobe style then was presented with a screen I simply could not figure out.  I poked around trying to figure out what the basic procedure was and found the "import" function, tried to import and mgep file, and I got my first blue screen ever on this system.
    Rebooted, and restarted Encore, I explored more on my own.  I can usually figure out these things on my own.  I explored the menus and buttons, and figured out that an asset was probably anything I wanted to put on the DVD.  Other than that I was pretty much stuck.  I imported another mpeg file and that worked, but I finally gave up and decided to try "Help".  That took me to the Adobe site, and that to the Lynda tutorials, which were just what I needed.  I went through them one-by-one and they answered most of my questions.  They were excellent.  Quick, clear, and just the right amount of detail for a tutorial.  Adobe did good with that one.
    With Lynda's help I was off and running.  I figured out how to create menu templates by examining the ones that came with Encore and I figured out how to change the order and other settings for each button.  Everything was going smoothly now.  I had a project that had a menu and three videos.  The preview feature was also working great.  But, the highlight I used for my buttons is a green dot that has an inner shadow.  In preview I only get a green dot.  No shadow.  Later on the DVD itself, same thing.  I later learend by reading in these forums that that is the fault of the DVD player.
    I still had room for one more button, and I still had lots of photos I had not used, so I tried the slide show feature.  It looked like it would a good job just showing photos, and for this project I thought it would be a nice little extra.  I know that some people here consider it to be a comsumer gimick and just seeing it in Encore made me think the same thing, as if Adobe wanted to be able to match the features of (much) lesser DVD authoring programs.  No matter.  I'd also learn, by experience that this feature still needs a little work.  Again, I am not a pro, so if I notice something that needs fixing it must really scream out at you guys and gals.
    It was pretty easy to import my photos and add them to the slide show, but I soon learned that 99 photos is the max for a slide show.  I suppose that is OK.  Next, I learned that the shortest time I could display a slide is about 1.2 seconds.  I was hpoing to be able to run through some of my photos quickly to simuate a stop-action sequence for those times when I just held the shutter release button and snapped away at the action, such as a car spinning off into the dirt.  It could be that this limit is due to the cross-fade transitions I had set as the slide show's default transition.  I'll try it again later without transitions to see what happens.
    Adding and removing slides turned out to be a real pain.  When addidng slides in mass I'd get an error saying there was something wrong with a slide.  I forget what the other errors were, but I got a lot of them.  They were probably related to the number of slides I was placing in the timeline, over 99 total.  But besides the errors, Encore really slowed down.  It took maybe 10-15 minutes for it to get back to normal, or just about how long it took me to give up and go off and fold laundry.  So then I tried to delete some slides and that took for ever, especially if the slide was near the beginning of the show.  I figure Encode must be reprocessing the whole show somehwow.  But after these problems something seemd to be wrong with Encore.  It was slow when doing anything.  I closed it and started it up again.  It was all better again.
    In previews the slide show looked good, but I realized that I needed to resize the photos.  I did this in Photoshop for a handful then came back to Encore, expecting it to update itself, seeing as assets like these are external to the Encore project itself, but that didn't happen.  If I edited a video and came back to Premiere it would re-import the video.  Apparently this doesn't happen in the slide show.  I deleted the slide show and started again.  At least it is easy to set up new slide shows, except as noted above.
    The do-over worked.  The slide show looked good.
    I burned a DVD and the results were excellent, except for, again, the slide show.  The show ran OK, but at the end of each transition there was a little flicker, more like a contrast glitch.  Annoying, and it has to be fixed or else the slide show feature will be useless, even for me, except for personal use.
    Other than that, all was good.  I edited video and Encore reimported it and the burn was successful and it looked great, well, on my analog TV.  I still don't have digital as I canceld cable and quit watching TV nearly 2 years ago.  But it was working, minor changes were easily handled, etc.
    I then tried the Flash feature, and it worked well, except that the video frame is not centered (too far to the right).  The HTML code was simple enough.  The video plays in a table whose width is 99% of the screen the cell justification is centered.  I'm sure I could deal with that in my own pages.  But, a bigger problem, again involving the slide show.  The VCR controls would pop up at the start, or end, of each slide, and then would disappear again on its own.  Again, the slide show is a nice feature but I can't use it if the controls are going to be going up and down throughout the show.
    I also exported an image and will be trying that out later.  Being able to create an image for the DVD is nice.  It means I won't have to use Encode for future burns, and I might have trouble keeping up with the 80 GB of files I have in this project.
    Mike

    Thanks for reporting.
    I'm one of those folk, who shies away from SlideShow in En, choosing to do that in PrPro and then Exporting a DV-AVI.
    Though this is not a "technical" forum, I'll risk Jeff & Neil's wrath and throw out one comment. If your still images were not resized to your Project's Frame Size, say 720 x 480, PAR = 1.22 (for NTSC 16:9 in this example), you are asking the program to downsize all of your 99 stills. That WILL slow things to a crawl. Also, I feel that resizing in Photoshop, rather than En, or PrPro, will give you better results. This is a time, where bigger is not better. If you redo, or do a similar Project, explore resizing the stills in PS first, and then Importing those. This ARTICLE might give you some tips on automating the resizing, prior to Import.
    OK, enough of that technical drivel. Thanks again for sharing!

  • New Encore user... AVI shows as audio only?

    OK im a designer... photoshop flash dreamweaver then im your girl but ive
    NEVER used encore before!
    Ive got several episodes of shows ive dowloaded (all leagal!!) which I want to put on DVD, they are AVI files.
    When I import them into the project space they only show up as a window audio...no video!?
    What am I doing wrong/missing?

    You say AVI. That is but a "wrapper," and almost anything can be contained in there. This ARTICLE will give you some detail and also show how to "peek inside" that wrapper. It is the CODEC contained in the AVI, that is all important. It is most likely that the CODEC used is not going to work in Encore, which wants to see either a DV-AVI Type II (either with muxed PCM/WAV audio, or with only the video stream), or DVD-compliant MPEG-2 (again muxed or not). I recommend using elemental/elementary streams, where you have Video-only, and Audio-only in two separate files. The Audio can either be PCM/WAV 48KHz 16-bit, or DD AC3, which is DVD/BD-compliant.
    Let us know what's inside the AVI's, and someone can direct you on how best to proceed. Most likely, you will just Import that file into PrPro and Export as DV-AVI, but you also may need to convert it, should it be DivX, Xvid, or MJPEG, all common CODEC's in the AVI wrapper, but incompatible with Encore.
    Good luck,

  • Performance issue with BW Reports for concurrent users

    All:
    I notice that one BW report that runs in few seconds will take upto 3.5 minutes when multiple users run it at the same time.
    We are in BW 3.5 and we run reports for portal.
    Does anyone have any suggestion about how to handle performance issue with concurrent users?
    Thanks,
    Pranab

    Hi,
    use the OLAP-cache and/or aggregates and consider using load balancing to distribute the users to several servers.

  • Performance issue while accessing SWwLOGHIST & SWWHEAD tables

    Hi,
    We have applied workflow function in Purchase Order (PO) for release strategry purpose. We have two release levels.
    The performance issue came while user who tried to update the existing PO in which the PO had already released. because after user amend the PO and then they pressed "SAVE" button in PO's screen, the release strategry will reset and it tried to read the SWwLOGHIST table, it took few seconds to minutes to complete the save process.
    My workflow's schedule job details as below:
    SWWERRE - every 20 minutes
    SWWCOND - every 30 minutes
    SWWDHEX - every 3minutes
    Table Entries:
    SWWHEAD - 6mil entries
    SWwLOGHIST - 25mil entries
    Should we do data archiving on the above workflow tables?
    Is it only the solution?
    Kindly advice,
    Thanks,
    Regards,
    Thomas

    Hi,
    The sizes for both tables as below:-
    SWWLOGHIST - 3GB
    SWWWIHEAD - 2GB
    I've a REORGchk_alltables in weekly basis, in DB2/DB6 (DB) do I need to manually reorg of the tables or rebuild the indexes?
    You can refer the attached screenshots for both tables.

  • Service Manager 2012 SP1 consoles hanging or slow performance issue in Virtual Environment

    Hii,
    We are facing SCSM SP1 console performance issue which is utilizing high CPU and working deadly.
    For information, our SCSM is in Virtual environment via Hyper-V.
    When running the console over an RDP session to a Hyper-V virtual machine, we have to be careful not to maximize the console so that it will remain fast.  If we maximize on the VM, the console is so slow as for it to be unusable.
    Can someone share his experience, please?

  • SQL Performance issue: Using user defined function with group by

    Hi Everyone,
    im new here and I really could need some help on a weird performance issue. I hope this is the right topic for SQL performance issues.
    Well ok, i create a function for converting a date from timezone GMT to a specified timzeone.
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION I3S_REP_1.fnc_user_rep_date_to_local (date_in IN date, tz_name_in IN VARCHAR2) RETURN date
    IS
    tz_name VARCHAR2(100);
    date_out date;
    BEGIN
    SELECT
    to_date(to_char(cast(from_tz(cast( date_in AS TIMESTAMP),'GMT')AT
    TIME ZONE (tz_name_in) AS DATE),'dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss'),'dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
    INTO date_out
    FROM dual;
    RETURN date_out;
    END fnc_user_rep_date_to_local;The following statement is just an example, the real statement is much more complex. So I select some date values from a table and aggregate a little.
    select
    stp_end_stamp,
    count(*) noi
    from step
    where
    stp_end_stamp
    BETWEEN
    to_date('23-05-2009 00:00:00','dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')      
    AND
    to_date('23-07-2009 00:00:00','dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
    group by
    stp_end_stampThis statement selects ~70000 rows and needs ~ 70ms
    If i use the function it selects the same number of rows ;-) and takes ~ 4 sec ...
    select
    fnc_user_rep_date_to_local(stp_end_stamp,'Europe/Berlin'),
    count(*) noi
    from step
    where
    stp_end_stamp
    BETWEEN
    to_date('23-05-2009 00:00:00','dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')      
    AND
    to_date('23-07-2009 00:00:00','dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
    group by
    fnc_user_rep_date_to_local(stp_end_stamp,'Europe/Berlin')I understand that the DB has to execute the function for each row.
    But if I execute the following statement, it takes only ~90ms ...
    select
    fnc_user_rep_date_to_gmt(stp_end_stamp,'Europe/Berlin','ny21654'),
    noi
    from
    select

    )The execution plan for all three statements is EXACTLY the same!!!
    Usually i would say, that I use the third statement and the world is in order. BUT I'm working on a BI project with a tool called Business Objects and it generates SQL, so my hands are bound and I can't make this tool to generate the SQL as a subselect.
    My questions are:
    Why is the second statement sooo much slower than the third?
    and
    Howcan I force the optimizer to do whatever he is doing to make the third statement so fast?
    I would really appreciate some help on this really weird issue.
    Thanks in advance,
    Andi

    Hi,
    The execution plan for all three statements is EXACTLY the same!!!Not exactly. Plans are the same - true. They uses slightly different approach to call function. See:
    drop table t cascade constraints purge;
    create table t as select mod(rownum,10) id, cast('x' as char(500)) pad from dual connect by level <= 10000;
    exec dbms_stats.gather_table_stats(user, 't');
    create or replace function test_fnc(p_int number) return number is
    begin
        return trunc(p_int);
    end;
    explain plan for select id from t group by id;
    select * from table(dbms_xplan.display(null,null,'advanced'));
    explain plan for select test_fnc(id) from t group by test_fnc(id);
    select * from table(dbms_xplan.display(null,null,'advanced'));
    explain plan for select test_fnc(id) from (select id from t group by id);
    select * from table(dbms_xplan.display(null,null,'advanced'));Output:

    My last Time Machine back-up is 45 days old and only of User Account files (not entire HD) and I must now reinstall Lion (via internet) without  performing a new back-up. Will any new User Account files, since my last back-up, be lost when Lion reinstalls ?

    Reinstalling OS X doesn't affect user data, provided nothing goes wrong. But it would be very unwise to assume that nothing will go wrong, especially if you're having (unspecified) system issues. You should try to back up all data before you reinstall or do anything else. There are ways to do that, even if you're unable to boot.
    If your backups include only user files, you won't be able to access them in Setup Assistant.

  • Performance issue with brand new intel iMac extreme

    I am at a loss to explain a problem I've been having and I thought I might put it out to you guys.
    In September I purchased a macbook Pro (2.4 ghz, 4 GB RAM) to use in video editing with Final Cut Pro, and for the most part I've been thrilled. I use 1TB LaCie external drives connected via FW800, and perform Multiclip editing with 4-5 video streams at a time and only on occasion have dropped frames during the editing process.
    In December I determined that I needed to have an additional system, and thought a 2.8Ghz Intel iMac extreme would be an excellent choice, since for the same price I could get a little more power in the processor, more hard drive space and a bigger screen to work on. When we picked up the new system in the store (The Grove Apple Store in LA), we had them upgrade the memory to 4GB.
    Since day one we have had performance issues, including problems playing streaming and DVD video, severe delays mounting and unmounting drives (firewire and USB) and application images, and freezing while doing even simple tasks like printing or checking email. These problems occur even while there are no external drives are connected. I have none of these issues with the Macbook Pro, which has virtually an identical set of programs installed, and both running the same version of Leopard.
    I already took the original iMac back to the store, and they exchanged it, but did not have 4GB sets of RAM in stock so they took the RAM from the original machine and put it in the new one. They said if I continued to have problems then it was most likely the RAM and I should come back when they got more in stock. I DID have the same problems with the new machine, and took it back to the Apple Store and they swapped the memory. It seemed to improve the issue, but now I'm seeing the same severe performance issues again.
    All tech support can do is tell me to do a PRAM reset, which seems to improve things very temporarily (but that may be my imagination) or have me restart, which at least has the ability to make the printing of documents capable.
    What I'm wondering is if it is likely that the RAM is the issue and I just got another bad batch, or if the iMac has some weird glitch that isn't present in the macbook Pro...?? Or could I have possibly gotten 2 bad systems in a row? It's extremely frustrating, and I KNOW it shouldn't be this way! It's so bad I get better performance out of my single-core G5 tower! How do I get a good working system that operates like it should? Am I better off getting another Macbook Pro? I'd rather not for several reasons...
    I have xbench on both the MBP and the iMac and can provide test numbers if they'll help, as well as any other info.
    Thank you so much for reading my novella of a post and also for any insight you have!
    Best,
    Travis

    Hi!
    I got the same problem with my MacBook when it still was new in may 2006. It was supposed to be one of the faster Laptops around but it was soooo slow it drove me nuts. I can only advise to have a look if there is something hugging up your RAM and run some tests using these programs on your machine:
    Xbench:
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/10081
    MenuMeters:
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/10451
    If they show any unusual results you might have your problem...
    As to my problem with the MacBook: I did a complete re-install (writing the harddisk over with zeroes) and suddenly everything was just fine. (But be sure to back all your files before that, I learned this one the hard way.) I know it is just a standard answer, but it worked out for me this time...
    Hope this helps in some ways.
    Cheers,
    Rene

  • I am a new mac user and have a 15 macbook pro (non retina display).  I am having an issue with safari "freezing" ...it will work fine for a while and then I will open a new tab and attempt a website that won't load and after that it seems no website will.

    So yes like mentioned above...i am a new mac user...have only had it about four days and have had a windows based system always before this.  The issue I am having is that I will be in safari and it will work perfect for a while and then i will open a new tab and attempt another website and it will either be extremely slow or will give the error that it cannot connect to the server, however, when i run diagnostics my internet is fine.  The only solution i have found is to reboot and geeksquad has been unable to replicate the problem while connected to my computer to try to do so.  Does anyone have any suggestions or anyone else with this problem?  If you have a "fix" please try layman's terms because again I have no idea about macs haha.  Thanks,

  • Performance issue in update new records from Ekko to my ztable

    I'm doing changes to an existing program
    In this program I need to update any new purchase orders created in EKKO-EBELN to my ztable-ebeln.
    I need to update my ztable with the new records created on that particular date.
    This is a daily running job.
    This is the code I wrote and I'm getting 150,000 records into this loop and I'm getting performance issue, can Anyone suggest me how to avoid performance issue.
    loop at tb_ekko.
        at new ebeln.
          read table tb_ztable with key ebeln = tb_ekko-ebeln binary search.
          if sy-subrc <> 0.
            tb_ztable-ebeln = tb_ekko-ebeln.
            tb_ztable-zlimit = ' '.
            insert ztable from tb_ztable.
          endif.
        endat.
      endloop.
    Thanks
    Hema.

    Modify  your code as follows:
    loop at tb_ekko.
    at new ebeln.
    read table tb_ztable with key ebeln = tb_ekko-ebeln binary search.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
    tb_ztable_new-ebeln = tb_ekko-ebeln.
    tb_ztable_new-zlimit = ' '.
    append tb_ztable_new.
    clear tb_ztable_new.
    endif.
    endat.
    endloop.
    insert ztable from table tb_ztable_new.

  • BEx Analyzer: User ID based performance issue

    Hello Ladies and Gents,
    <b>The issue:</b>
    My BW team just upgraded our system to 2004s and we are experiencing an odd userid based performance issue.  If we run a query from the BEx Analyzer with user ID 'A' it takes about 3min for the variable selection screen to appear. If I log into the same machine user ID 'A' was using on my user ID B the query variable selection screen appears within seconds. What could possibly cause this?
    <b>What we know so far:</b>
    1. Investigated the security roles, seems like that is not the issue.
    2. It is PC client independent.  Two different user IDs(A and B) on the same machine running the same query in the same way (clicking through the BEx browser) produces different response times for the appearance of the variable selection screen. 
    Points will be rewarded and help will be greatly appreciated!

    User specific personalization is retrieved before displaying the input variables. That might be a possibility, but hard to see it making such a difference.  Do you always try the sequence of User A, then User B, or have you confirmed that when you start with User B, it is quick, and tehn slow whne trying User A?
    Probably the best approach is to activate Trace and then logon with User A, turn trace off and print or save, then do the same thing for User B and compare.  The trace will show you all the various SQL stmts and such that run as part of your trying to launch the query.
    Please post back anything you learn.
    Some info on Personalization  for the Help pages.

    This function allows users to fill variables with user-specific values, to save user-specific accesses to BI objects for the history view in the BEx Open dialog box, and to save user-specific start views for Web applications.
    Integration
    The personalized data is stored in different DataStore objects, according to the personalization area.

  • Building a new Cube Vs Restricted Key figure in Query - Performance issue

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to create  a OPEX restricted key figure in Query. The problem is that the key figure should be restricted to about 30 GL Accounts and almost 300 Cost centers.
    I do not know if this might cause performance issue in the query. At the moment, I am thinking of creating a new OPEX cube and load only those 30 GL Accounts, 300 cost  centers and Amount. and  include OPEX  in multiprovider in order to get OPEX
    amount in the report.
    whats the best solution - creating OPEX restricted key figure or OPEX cube ?
    thanks,
    Bhat

    I think you should go for cube as all the restrcited key figure are calculated at OLAP runtime so it will definitely affect the query performance.There are a lot of costcenter for which you have to restrict it so definitely during the runtime of query it will take a lot of time to fetch tha data from infoprovider.Its better that you create a cube with the restrictions and include it in MP.It will definitely save a lot of time during query execution

  • Performance issue: Adding a new product line to existing Quote calls pricing engine for existing line a well

    Hi All,
    I need some assistance for my below query...
    If there are already existing some product/quote lines on the quote and then we try to add another new product/quote line to this quote , then  it is taking more time to add the product. As per my understanding it is calling the Pricing engine for the existing line as well. How can we avoid the pricing engine call for the existing lines.
    There are some parameters which we are setting as mentioned below :
    l_control_rec.header_pricing_event := 'BATCH' -- What does this mean when we set to batch
    l_control_rec.price_mode := 'ENTIRE_QUOTE'; -- (possible values could be CHANGE_LINES , QUOTE_LINE)
    l_header_rec.pricing_status_indicator := 'C';
    l_control_rec.calculate_freight_charge_flag := 'Y';
    l_control_rec.calculate_tax_flag := 'Y';
    l_header_rec.tax_status_indicator := 'C';
    Question :Could someone please help us with this whether is there any way with these parameters could be altered or changed to some other value ( like for PRICE_MODE we see this parameter could have some other values like : CHANGE_LINES , QUOTE_LINE etc other than ENTIRE_QUOTE).
    means lets say we do the Pricing Engine call only for the Newly Added quote line but not do it for the Entire Quote again and again..
    Now the other question here could be how do we finally synch the line level price values for all the quote lines upto the Quote header level in form of Totals (TOTAL_LIST_PRICE,TOTAL_TAX, TOTAL_SHIPPING_CHARGE, SURCHARGE, TOTAL_QUOTE_PRICE in aso_quote_headers_all table) ??
    Also is there a way that we don't do the Freight Charge calculation and Tax calculation (means we skip this completely) while adding products to the quote but do it at a later point when doing the Submit to Order functionality.
    Could someone please help with these pricing related parameters and modes to be used in order to get around this performance issue
    Thanks

    Dear Expert,
    Activate your Controlling area as usual and Cost Centers and Profit Center , You can assign an internal order for the particular product line for what you are seeing and can collect the costs of that particular product line exclusively.
