After update to CC from CS6 multi-camera playback/edit now glitchy

Hi Forum Friends,
I finally made the move from CS6 to CC last week and now I am diving back in to some projects that were already in progress during the upgrade (which went smoothly).
However, I am now finding that my ability to playback multicam clips for edit is greatly degraded, with lag, hanging and "not responding" pauses really slowing me down. I haven't crashed it yet, but as the problem becomes more clear to me I'll update this thread.
Has anyone else had this experience? Does anyone have a clue they can loan me?
I am running CC on Win7sp1 with 6GB RAM and an NVIDIA Quadro 2000 GPU. Nothing about my workflow or raw media (Canon XF) has changed except the CC update.
Thanks!

Sooo... This problem is still plaguing me, and shunting all of my productions through FCPX is not a sustainable solution! Besides I am paying for this!
Let me clarify the outline of the issue - although I once assumed that my problem was associated with a widely bemoaned .MFX media error extant before the last PrProCC update, I can now say that my .MXF problems were only a subsidiary issue. My problem (sometimes identified in the event viewer in CC as "audio dropout in adobe player") is a HANG.
Today I am working in PrPro CS6.0.5 (under my CC subscription) and here is what I see: Occurring every 10-25 seconds of playback (multicam editing), it lasts 4-10 seconds (screen freezes, audio freezes) and then resumes from the moment of the hang. PrPro then executes any keystrokes that happened during the hang (eg. save, pause playback, or cut to a diff. cam. angle). In the resource monitor, I see two kinds of hangs: 1) CPU activity drops to zero and then surges before the moment of recovery, but CPU and disc I/O never approach capacity. Curiously, RAM (used physical memory) also notches down to 0, then immediately comes back up to the previous level. 2) CPU and disc activity both surge to capacity at the moment of the freeze and stay up near full bore for the duration and for several more seconds, while RAM holds steady. In this variation of the hang, the number of instances of "adobe premiere pro.exe" in the "Disk" window multiplies to 25-30 or more, then after recovery returns to the normal 4-6 instances.
Clearing/deleting media cache seems to make no change.
Kevin Monahan FYI I am still out here needing some help and encouragement.
I'm gonna go burn an hour trying to chat with support...
Happy New Year Adobe!

  • Multi-camera AVCHD editing workflow in Premiere CS4

    I have a client project that has me wondering what workflow to use and I someone on this forum probably has the expertise to know the right solution. My requirements...
    1. Client is recording a scene using 4 cameras at once, like a live TV show is shot, all AVCHD footage, 1920x1080px 17mbs, square pixels.
    2. I must playback in Premiere the 4 video streams in real time and choose one camera to output, like a director would switch a live TV show. So, all 4 streams are playing in Premiere's multiple-camera editing windows. Each show I'm editing is about 1 hour long. The advantage of multi-camera editing of course is I can play all 4 cameras at once and live switch between them in Premiere to arrive at a 1 hour show in 1 hour of editing time.
    3. Until I can upgrade my hardware that can possibly handle 4 streams of AVCHD, I'm stuck needing a workflow to convert the original AVCHD to some  lowres format, edit those offline low res copies to get my edit decision list, and then reconnect the online HDV AVCHD clips to export through Media Encoder for a final production. My output format is Flash F4V 640x360 px square pixels for Internet playback.
    4. Hardware: I'm running Windows 7 RC using CS4 Premiere 4.1, 4gb RAM, 2.4ghz dual-core processor with 64mb Intel turbo boost on a notebook PC. I do have 4 hard drives to hold each camera's footage on its own drive, and a fifth drive to ouput the edited version to, in addition to a drive to hold my OS and Premiere. The external drives are connected via eSATA to the notebook.
    Question 1: what do you suggest as the lowres format I should convert my AVCHD footage to for multi-camera playback/editing in Premiere?
    Question 2: do you think it's even possible to buy a desktop PC that can handle playback of 4 multicam AVCHD native format files in Premiere in real time? I'm concerned this may be too much for even the most powerful systems, and I would need to resort to editing lowres footage even with the most powerful desktop. As you know, decompressing one or two AVCHD streams is taxing to a PC so 4 at once is a challenge.
    Question 3: an alternative workflow would be to feed live video out of the HDMI connectors on the cameras into four HDMI capture cards (Intensity Blackmagic) and capture uncompressed HDV bypassing AVCHD compression altogether, but the disk space required would be substantial. Does this make sense? I've even considered feeding those 4 HDMI feeds into a video switcher between the cameras and PCs but the cheapest solution I can find that can provide genlock (frame sync) between the 4 cameras for clean glitch-free switching is quite expensive, thousands of dollars invested.

    I must playback in Premiere the 4 video streams in real time
    Good luck with that.  Many folks have trouble with even one stream.
    edit those offline low res copies to get my edit decision list
    I'm not sure offline editing with AVCHD will be possible because of the folder structure.  You may not be able to 'replace' the lower res copies with AVCHD.
    My output format is Flash F4V 640x360 px square pixels for Internet playback.
    Oh, man.  Shooting HD of any flavor is just overkill that adds unnecessary work to the process.  Have your client shoot in DV.

  • CS6 Multi-camera greenscreen & multicam monitor?

    Does anyone know if there's a way to do Multi-Camera Monitor editing, when the source footage uses multiple cameras against a greenscreen, when the greenscreen replacement layer is to be unique for each of the 3 angles?
    I recently shot a few instructional videos in a greenscreen studio.  My setup was such that I had 3 cameras, for three different angles, and remotely-recorded audio.
    Now in the process of editing, I've hit a bit of a wall, and was hoping for some help.
    I'm using Premiere Pro CS6, and I've set up the project as such:
    The sequence in the timeline has 6 video layers: 1 layer for each of 3 camera angles, and 1 unique background replacement layer for each camera angle.
    Now I want to use Multi-Camera Monitor to do my angle cuts. The problem is that Multi-Camera Monitor sees the 6 different video layers as unique camera layers.
    I want to know if there's a way to do multicamera editing such that I can lock each camera and background replacement layer - such that Multi-Camera Monitor sees them as one.
    My first attempted workaround was to create individual sequences for each of the 3 angles give them the background replacement treatment, then nest each of these into a new sequence, and go from there. The problem I've found in doing this is that the audio waveform display for each of the individual sequence layers disappears (once they are nested in the big sequence) - so I didn't see a way to sync things up without an audio source.@
    I *could* always create and export each of the angles and replace the greenscreen for each as it should be, export each of them, and drag these to the Project panel to use as my new "original layers".  Just seems like a lot of extra work, and that there would be an easier way to do all this.
    Also thinking I could create a master source sequence (every angle, background replacement, audio, synced up), duplicate it three times and delete 2 of the camera angles in each, then combine each in a nested sequence with the audio, then make my cuts in yet another sqeuence with Multi-Camera Monitor.  Again, seems like this should be easier somehow.
    Any advice would be very helpful.  I couldn't seem to find any answers elsewhere. Thank you in advance.

    Thanks for the note. 
    I thought about the first option - the problem is perspective (The background is slightly different for each angle, not uniform). And dragging the backgrounds to a BG layer later would be somewhat time intensive.
    Nesting is interesting, but I've got so many of these videos, the Multicam Monitor way of editing together angles seems like it would be less work in the end.
    Here's the workflow I think I'm going to go with:
    Create a 'Master Source Sequence', and align everything. (Angle 1, Background for angle 1, Angle 2, Background for angle 2, Angle 3, Background for angle 3, Audio tracks).
    Duplicate this sequence 3 times.  Delete all elements from each copy except for one of the cam angles, and rename each to 'Cam 1 Sequence', 'Cam 2 Sequence', 'Cam 3 Sequence'.
    Drag each of these 3 to a new sequence, called 'Prep for Multicam Sequence'.
    Drag this to 'Mutlicam Cut Sequence', drag in external audio tracks from 'Master Source Sequence', cut with Multicam as normal.
    Again, thanks for the follow up!

  • What cause searching network problem after updating iphone 6 from iOS 8.1.2 TO iOS 8.1.3?

    what cause searching network problem after updating iphone 6 from iOS 8.1.2 TO iOS 8.1.3?

    SSince Apple does not support downgrading the iOS I suggest you start a new question that gives a good title to a specific problem. Then in the body of the thread describe the problem in detail, tell us what steps you have tried so far to correct the problem, what happened, and what error messages you received.

    Define storage. Disk, Random Access memory  or a combination.  Installing software consumes some disk space but does not disable or remove RAM.

  • CS6 multi-camera monitoring playback is slow/stops entirely

    Hey all,
    I've been searching forums for a workaround to this and I've come up empty - either the conversation gets bogged down in video card/hardware discussions or moves away from the issue entirely.
    I am working on a 2012 Mac Pro tower with 24GB of ram and an ATI HD 5870 card. I've got 5 edited sequences for a music video that I've rendered out and I've nested those five to create an editional edit from those. I rendered to apple pro res 422 HQ, which is generally what I use for my working files. I had (relatively) no issues rendering out the 5 sequences/multi camera editing those (each containing 4 different camera angles). Now, when trying to pull those 5 sequences together and doing a multi cam, playback doesn't roll for more than 1-2 seconds before grinding to a half. My source files are on a seperate, internal HD from my project file, and I can't think of what else I might be able to do to get this to work
    Any ideas? Help would be much appreciated - I really want to this multi cam edit to be the base of the video and from there I'll get more creative with my cuts and add clips manually.

    You would have been better off just editing the native media, I think.  PP is a different animal than FCP.  You'll no longer need some of the bad habits you picked up using it. 

  • My iphone 5s lose Touch-id after update ios 7.1 . What should i do now ? My Iphone is from HongKong but now i lives in Viet Nam . Is there anyway that I can transfer my Iphone to Apple Hongkong

    Pls help me
    My iphone 5s lose Touch-id after update ios 7.1 . What should i do now ? My Iphone is from HongKong but now i lives in Viet Nam . Is there anyway that I can transfer my Iphone to Apple Hongkong

    In iOS 7.1, the setting has changed locations and is in the same grouping with General, Wallpapers, etc. Also, if you have not set a passcode, you cannot see or set Touch ID. If you restored the phone as new and it still does not provide you the option to set a passcode, and then Touch ID, then it is possible there is a hardware error. Since you purchased the device in Hong Kong, as described before, you can only get a friend/relative to take it to Apple, or you will have to do it yourself. Unfortunately that is what can happen when you need warranty work and have purchased a device outside of the country that you live in.

    Tonebox,
    I couldn't get my camera to work smoothly
    the 1st ten times,or so,I tried to open it.
    As it turns out,it isn't as pressure sensitive as I have
    grown accustomed to, and required a gesture that feels
    rather awkward, by comparison to the ones I have been using.

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.
