Each edit is taking 5-10 seconds to process in some of my project file's nested sequences. What can I do?

I edit a weekly news show. For this show, I have created a Project File that I re-use as a template every week. It's a highly nested template, with a sequence for every used material (the anchorman’s footage, the news set, the media playing over the anchorman’s shoulder, the lower thirds, etc). It has three different camera angles in a multicam sequence, each sequence sharing the same nested sequences but just resized to look like a different camera angle. To make this easier to understand, here's an episode (explicit):
SKATELINE - Cory Kennedy, David Gonzalez, Jimmy Carlin In Enjoi Oververt and more.. - YouTube
In the past, the template has worked perfectly. However, everytime Adobe has a major update and I update the project file, for some reason, some of the sequences perform very sluggishly. With Adobe's recent update, the sequences for the anchorman’s footage and the media playing behind him are very slow to make edits in. Every action I do takes 10 seconds to process, even moving an image. However, if I work in the master sequence (With everything put together) everything runs perfectly smooth when I make edits.
In an attempt to fix this problem, I decided to recreate the project file from scratch, with the new update, but even then, my "anchorman footage" and "media behind him" sequences are very slow. What's even more bizarre is if I select a piece of footage in the anchorman sequence, my entire program sometimes crashes. I have tried rendering the sequences to help performance, but that hasn't worked. I have tried installing CUDA Drivers to use the CUDA version of the Mercury Playback Engine on my Macbook Pro Retina, but it also still isn’t working.
So why do you think that my sequences are operating so slowly? What could be causing it? Could it be that each sequence is used several times in the multicam sequence? If so, why has it worked smoothly until now? What can I do?

Yes same issue for me also, working in mutli cam nestings
Very Very Sluggish Performance, semi hangs in PP, if you actually wait long enough, or leave it hung whilst you do a post on here, for a few minutes then it may come back to response.
The issue is defo to do with nesting, I have tried turning off audio wave forms, which helps in the multicam nest edit but as soon as you put that sequence into a third nest then the sluggishness is major.
Basically, this looks to be the same issues that have been reported before with the new update.

Ask the ACDSee Pro support personnel.
With iPhoto that message means the library is a referenced library (photo not copied when imported into iPhoto's structure) and the source file is not where it was when first added to the library. I don't know how ACDSee works. Does it have a referenced mode as opposed to copying photos into its structure?

Moving an iMovie project file for editing on a different iMac

Does anyone know if an iMovie project file started on one iMac can be saved to a usb drive or dvd/cd to be opened on another iMac computer to continue editing? What I have done before is go to: movies>iMovie projects>selected file and save the selected file to a usb drive. I also save the pictures and voice overs/music files that I used with the iMovie project on the same usb drive. However, when I open the iMovie project file on another iMac all of the work that I had previously done is not there. I end up starting all over. I would like to start my project at home and do any finishing touches on the second iMac in order to decrease the time I have to spend at the second location. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

When you move files to your second iMac, they need to be in the EXACT location. If you have your videos and photos in a folder on your desktop named "Movie Stuff," and you just throw them into a folder in documents called "Stuff" on your second iMac, iMovie will not recognize the files. You need to create the same path as the first iMac. In this case, you would have to make a folder called "Movie Stuff" on your second iMac's desktop, and move the files there.
Hope this helped!

I opened my iPhoto library today which was stored on an external hard drive and several of my videos now will not play at all. The weird thing is that each file shows a duration of 1 second and when I open them it just shows one frame. What the !&%$#@ Where did my original video files go?

Sounds like a good plan, you can never be to safe and having a second External HD is safer than one.
The only thing that I would do different, is setup the 3T as my TimeMachine Backup and then erase and move my Photos, Videos and perhaps even iTunes Media to the 1T. That way you will have room to backup both the Internal Hard Drive and the 1T External Hard Drive to the 3T using TimeMachine.
Take your time, study and use the > Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions if you get stuck or aren't sure how to make the move.

What version of FCP X?
Did you render? what are the project specs? do you use many compound clips? how much ram, hard drive space, how is the hard drive connected?
It looks like your mac can't keep up. Maybe the bottleneck is the hard drive, or something else.
Try exporting a master file and see if the video is ok.
Also, keep Activity Monitor open and see how much memory pressure you've got.

How to reduce the time for each clips up to 0,04 seconds?

Hi, I'm trying to realize my first time laps. I've need to reduce the time for each clips up to 0,04 seconds, but it seems that the minimum time is 0,1 second. There's a solution?

And use a zip file. Many people can't open RARs.

Hello- I am a Canon photographer. I use Bridge (CS5) to process my raw files to jpegs. I am taking on a second photographer who shoots Nikon (D800) and i am not currently able to see or process his images. Can you please help? thank you!

According to Adobe:
D800
NEF
6.7, 7.1
4.1
D800E
NEF
6.7, 7.1
4.1
The fact that they have 2 versions of ACR means that initial support for the D800 was added in 6.7 but that complete support was finalized in 7.1 (the 4.1 in the chart is for Lightroom)
I'm not sure that this means there are missing features, but rather refinements and optimized settings were added in 7.1
However, ACR 7.1 requires CS6.
As Dag mentioned, you can also use the latest version of DNG Converter to convert the D800 files to DNGs which will be able to be opened in older versions of ACR.
The DNG converter only works on folders of files, not individual files. So just select the folder and convert. All the files in the folder will be converted.

Help with apple script for Chapter Markers (on each edit)

Hi,
My goal:
Add for each edit in the sequence a chapter marker til the end of the sequence.

Not working: character "a" is not typed, no idea why ?
Not working: goto begin of sequnce at the beginning
And: I need something like a loop til the end of the sequence

Use Automator. It's great for repetitious tasks (like the one you've described), and it's very user-friendly. Open Automator, create a new workflow that executes the action you want, and you can apply that action to the resources you wish to edit.

Taking 20-30 seconds to connect the wifi

Hi there
I have iPhone 4 and 4s. After i upgraded to iOS 7.0.2 i found something strange in wifi connection. It is taking 20-30 seconds (every time) to connect the wifi.
Steps:
Connect the iphone with wifi
Disable the mobile data / 3g data
Go to standby mode (Not switched off, Just stand by only)
Leave it for 15 min or so
click the center round button
Give the 4 digit password
Open any app which need net (for example mail box / Facebook / Linkedin / check the software upgrade)
It will popus an message saying there is not active internet connection in your mobile / ask you enable the net connection.
When you did the above steps you could have crossed 20 - 30 sec and now you can notice the wifi signal will come in the top corner screen and the app starts to work again.
Please dont say it is due to more number of apps i have installed in my phone and it is running behind!!.
I am using very less app and not dumping apps. Whereas i haven't installed any new apps and it was with the previous version.
I am in IT industry and to my understanding either the 4 & 4s is not that capable to handle the load of iOS7
Or
For battery saving in iOS7 these guys could have did something to make the process to sleep.
Issue: The problem is, if the phone is not active and not connected to mobile data then you could have miss the communications which needs active internet connections such as iMessage, Facetime, Viber etc.
When I was using iOS5 it was excellent.
After I upgraded to iOS6 it went to bad.
Then I upgraded to iOS7 it become worst.
Moral story is, i havent learned lessons from mistakes. This could be the faith with Apple
Any comments are suggestions from experts are welcome?

Thanks cor-el, I think this solved the problem. I'll wait a day or so and report back as to whether this has without a doubt fixed the problem.
thanks,
tjm

My iPod nano 2nd edition has died on me. I can press on menu and centre of the wheel and the apple logo comes on for seconds, then I get a glimpse of the menu list then the screen goes dead. What can I do? Can anyone help please?

MY iPod Nano 2nd generation iPod has died on me. I've charged it both by connecting to my laptop and also separately. I press the centre wheel and menu and the apple logo appears for a few seconds, then I get a glimpse of the menu then it disappears again. I have tried everything even leaving it plugged into the power for about four hours but it made no difference. What can I do?

Probably not a good sign especially given the age of the device. Are you able to get it into Disk Mode long enough so that you can restore it in iTunes?
Putting iPod into Disk Mode
Otherwise, it might be time to have the iPod serviced or replaced.

Opening CC project file on second machine fails

Hello!
I believe I´ve read most or all of the matching topics here but I am still stuck, so here´s my situation.
On my primary Workstation I´ve created a project of medium complexity (150GB, approx. 200 files, 5 sequences).
Here everything is working just fine.
On my laptop I also installed Adobe CC. I copied the whole projects' folder from workstation 1 onto my external HDD and connected it to my laptop.
Opening and cutting works fine here too.
Now, when I save and take the project (project file only) back to workstation 1, here Premiere Pro CC fails to load it up.
The loading bar proceeds to about 75% and then freezes. If I give it some time (10-15 minutes) it finally finishes loading, but Premiere isn't showing any reaction to mouse or keyboard, there are no panels at all visible. Basically it is crashed, allthough that´s not being indicated by the task manager.
I´ve tried all the tips from in here as well as the "usual stuff":
Saving a new project file, nothing.
Deleting preview files, then saving a new file, nothing.
Importing the project into AE and exporting a new project (on my laptop), nope.
Deleting all dynamic linked comps from the old project, saving then taking it to laptop 1, opening and saving it again, taking it back to the workstation, no.
Completely deleting everything Adobe on my workstation 1 and re-installing CC, "great" experience, but to no avail.
I also followed the solution of the similar problem on another thread here in the forums, with unzipping the xml and deleting certain lines of code and so forth, still nothing.
Then I went ahead and installed CC on my second laptop (not at all to be considered a workstation). Here the projects saved on laptop 1 opened just fine (asking for media files of course...).
EDIT:
I forgot to mention that a new and blank project from the laptops opens just fine on the workstation...
So I have to consider that something's wrong with my primary workstation. Right?
Any ideas, anyone?
It´s a fresh installation of Windows 8.1 with 24GB of Ram, GeForce GTX 570, i7 950, WD drives only, Windows on a seperate hybrid disk...
All CC installations are up to date.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as my deadline is on monday...
Thanks!

Try assigning the same drive letter to the laptop's external drive that you have assigned to the media drive on your workstation. That way, any project saved on the laptop will have the same absolute media file references that the workstation has.
NB: If Task Manager still thinks that Pr is responding by showing you that it's using memory and CPU cycles, then Pr probably hasn't crashed. It's just busy and taking its sweet time about whatever it's doing. (Emphasis on "probably")
You mentioned deleting preview files, but you didn't say anything about cleaning your media cache. Try that. A good cleaning of your user and Windows temporary files might help. You should also run chkdsk on your workstation's drives to help you diagnose whether or not hard drive failure is imminent.
Cheers,
Jeff

Mike,
Thank you for taking the time to look at my app. This is my last major stumbling block that I have to resolve for this and other forms in the app.
Actually, I did use the Form Wizard for Auto DML to originally create the form. It was great. It created most of the Buttons, Items and Validations automatically (basically most of the page). I just needed to create some Processes and Computations. Two of which were the Processes to update the 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields and 'update_dt' and 'updated_by' fields. The Create process updates the fields just fine.
However, my problem seems to be that the Hidden 'create_dt' and 'created_by' fields aren't picking up the values from a record that is being editted. Then when I attempt to save the record those fields are NULL, causing the DB NOT NULL constraint to throw an exception for those fields. In the back of my mind I seem to remember seeing some post stating something to the effect that the information in fields with a Source Type of Database Column is just displayed and does not affect Session State items.
Even with that, I am still wondering just why the 'created_by' Page Item shows the value that is in the DB record being updated, but the 'create_dt" does not (as can be seen in my first posting). It is the 'create_dt' Page Item (:P205_CREATE_DT) not having the DB records 'create_dt' info in it that appears to be the problem.
Thanks,
Tom
