GoPro multicam edit. WHAT IS GOING ON ???
I’ve been reading everything on this forum I can, and I hope someone can help.
Footage; GoPro Hero III Black 1920X1080 (30p-fps) w/ Protune enabled. Bitrate is 35000kbps. MP4 format.
Each different clip is 15 seconds in length.
Premiere Pro CS6 6.0.3 Media cache and database files are on separate hhd.
Timeline sequence matches 1 video source. 1920X1080
Each clip is scaled 45% and moved to a corner.
Timeline indicator is yellow. MPE is enabled.
32gb available, 25 is reserved for CS6.
PC Specs; DIY Core i7 3930K running at 4Ghz.
Antivirus is off
OS drive is Samsung 840/256. Read (465) write (312).
Video drives: 2-WD black, 1tb each running in raid 0 w/ onboard Marvell controller enabled.
32gb G.Skill ddr3 1600 XMP ram. 4X8
Quadro 4000GPU w/ 3.11 drivers.
Asus P9X79 Deluxe MB.
Problem is that the video preview window stutters, hangs, jerks, and in general not smooth. And this is at 1X playback speed. Don't even try 2X or 4X.
It runs like a 386 machine playing HD video. CS6 does not crash and the system is very stable.
So; what and where is my bottleneck? Is it the H264? Do I need a better RAID system w/ an onboard controller???
CPU usage is 10-15% usage while the timeline is choking.
GPU-Z indicates 1% load on the GPU, and memory is 758mb usage.
Who else out there is having these problems w/ GoPro footage?
On a side-note, if I render the video using Cineform, the playback is better, but not what I’d expect from this PC.
I am editing more and more GoPro multicam shoots and I have to find out what’s happening.
Need help, Harm where are you?
Thanks everybody.
Bob
Bob,
Tested the files you had emailed me and concur with above, you need to transcode to a more edit-friendly codec, I can't even play the files smoothly. Adobe Media Encoder will batch render to format of choice.
Will email you for more discussion
Thanks

I have existing projects made in iMovie and now I can't play them or edit them... any idea what's going on? P/s M preview window is totally blank. I can't figure out what went wrong. Thank you
For iMovie to see your projects, they must be in a certain place. If they are on your startup internal hard drive, they must be in the Movies/iMovie Projects/ folder. If they are on an external drive, they must be in the iMovie Projects/ folder at the top level of the drive. Is it possible that your projects have been moves somewhere else?

I do a fair amount of audio, video editing and photoshop, but I have a limited budget. What's going to give the best bang-for-buck for the next 3-5 yrs? My current machine is a 13" Macbook unibody 2.4 Core 2 Duo w/ 4Gb Ram so it's time to move forward with more power and screen real estate!
Hello, Jeff
I could never edit on a 13" screen. I'm currently using a 17" MBP i7 Early 2011 as a fast replacement to my aged 20" Intel iMac.
Both systems are not that far apart on stats and you will find that processing HD video will rely highly on the read/write to your storage. Myself, I'd be eye balling the 2011 for the Thunderbolt port so HD Video export/compression doesn't take forever! Currently processing a finished HD project for DVD uses at most 20% of my total CPU capacity. The FW800 drive is the big bottleneck! (I know I need at least a RAID to see a real speed boost).
How good your eyes are and your usage style would dictate if the difference in screen size make a difference to you. -
I have three ipods, none of which are being recognized by my itunes. I have reset each ipod, with no results. I wonder if the problem isn't with the USB ports. The mouse works fine in each port; nothing happens when I plug in the ipods. I have tried two different USB cables. I have no other USB devices with which to test. I have made sure I have the most recent updates and rebooted the computer. Any idea what is going on?
Did you already have a look at this article?

Multicam Edit/Can't See Video on Canvas
I'm doing a six-cam multicam edit. Everything was going perfect until my hand accidentally hit the keyboard. I don't know which key(s) I hit.
Not I can't see my video on the Canvas and my multiclips clips won't play in synch in the Viewer. I do hear the audio when I play the Timeline.
I opened another clip and it won't play. Nothing will play in the Canvas.
What the heck did I hit and how do I fix it? I'm working on a MacBook. All my video is on an external G Drive connected with a FireWire 800 cable.Thank you. I can't believe that. After so many projects I didn't even know that could happen.
What a relief. I'm an hour into this 90 minute musical. I was dreading having to start again.
Again... thanks. -
FCP 5.0 Multicam editing and main sound
I have 3 angles shots. How do I leave a main sound from camera 1 in the time line when when I do multicam editing?
Do I first do only video cuts and bring the main sound in or it can be done differently?
Thanks.I didn't feel like going through the manual either on this one --- here's what I do, which is by no means the easiest automatic thing.
After I drag my multiclip to the timeline, I grab the track I want audio from and place it with the multiclip. A couple locks & unlocks, a couple of deletes, and I've got the multiclip video with the audio from the track I want audio from.
It's not the automatic thing, but I generally am working with 2+ hour long multiclips, and only have to go through this once per project. -
Multicam Editing Problem during Export Pr CC
Hey guys, first post.
i have been working on a pretty long multicam project (About 1h45m) in Premiere Pro CC
I was all done, and during export in Media Encoder i noticed that after about 45m of rendering, the preview window was still showing the beginning of the video. Upon further inspection, i noticed that the video appeared to be Looping. Sencing that something was wrong, i cancelled my render and reopened my project.
when the project reopened i could see that after a couple of edits, there were little white triangles and the top of the clips. I need to stress that before i started rendering, these triangles where not there.
And yes, when i played through my sequence, at every edit (camera change) the multicam clip would play from the beginning again. i have tried to remove everything after where this problem occurs and then drag the footage out. It does allow me to do edits again and it works fine, but i dont really want to spend hours doing it again, not understanding what the problem is and run the risk of it messing up again.
I am so very confused as to what is going on so any help at all would be awesome. Its very frustrating to work on something for so long and it fail during export.
I will attach an image showing a glimpse of what my problem is. (Please excuse the camera work)
Thanks again
Dan
Specs.
2012 iMac
Processor 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB
Software OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)The triangles indicate hard media boundaries -- there are no more frames available from the source clip beyond that frame. If you don't have a triangle on a clip at an edit point, then the source media has frames available beyond the in or out point of that clip instance on the timeline.
There are a few things that might cause what you're seeing, so I recommend you check your multicam source sequence to make sure that it's referencing the correct media, and that all the media in your project points to the correct files on disk. Double- and triple-check that all the clip instances in the timeline point to the correct sequence or media. If the problem is related to clips on the timeline not pointing to the right thing, you could save yourself some work by trying to fix that instead of re-creating your edits. You should also see if you have any Auto-Saved projects that don't have the triangles at the edit points and that play the edited sequence correctly -- you could save yourself even more work.
Cheers,

Multicam editing fcp 6 ? How to do it.
Hi. can anyone explain how to do multi camera editing to me please. This will be the first time we have tried this and would love to know the pitfalls and what you have to do to make it work well. We are doing it on DV even though it was shot on digi beta then will conform the final edit.
Thanks
MartinHere's two resources for ya.

The video is pretty boring in the beginning because the speaker talks about the benefits of being certified. Who wants to hear that?!? But afterwards the video is pretty informative. It's kind of funny he goes off about being certified in the beginning but during the tutorial he fumbles trying to find certain menu options.
There's plenty more if you just Google multicam editing Final Cut Pro
Also the video tutorial explains how to combat the issue Shane mentioned previously of selecting different video feeds while maintaining one audio channel.

So I'm editing 3 canon 7d's and 1 zoomh2 for external audio. I've run PluralEyes to sync up the audio and all 3 camera's onto the timeline. Pluraleyes was spot on for syncing and now Ive created a new multicam sequence and dropped the first sequence into the timeline. Right click enable multicamera and open the multi camera monitor. I'm recording how I want to switch between camera's by simply clicking on each clip in sequence of how I want to see it. Now what if I goof up completely and just want to restart the whole sequence again after I've made so many edits? I can't seem to find a "revert" button. Also, what if there is just 1 or 2 that I want to edit. Can I adjust it from the multicamera monitor or does it have to be from the sequence timeline?
You should be able to just go back in time inside the multicamera window and redo your edits. They should overwrite what you're already done. I say should because CS4 had a bug with this option. I haven't tried it in CS5 yet to see if it's been fixed.
As a normal part of your workflow, however, I suggest doing a "rough cut" in the multicamera window, and then going over the whole thing again from the sequence to make your "fine cut" adjustments. -
Beeing relatively new to FCE and coming from iMovie, I have had high expectations for better ways of doing multicam editing whenever I have shots from several camera positions that I want to move between at the same course of time in the timeline.
For instance, say I got three cameras and I want to see what each of them displays "simultaneously" while doing playback. Is this possible in FCE? Or at the very least, is it possible to quickly hide/unhide a video layer during timeline playback, so that I can see what is going on "beneath"? That way I could at least see "simultaneously" two camera positions...You are probably right, but I cannot find those menuitems or shortcuts anywhere. The closest thing I have got is the Toggle Clip Enable (Control-B) key combination that hides or unhides a given clip, but this also stops playback. Can you tell me what shortcuts and/or menuitems I should be looking for?

Multicam Editing: Not usable, choppy preview
Hello,
I'm using Premiere CC and got in trouble when using multicam-editing. Even with only 3 Tracks in my multicam sequence, the preview in the program monitor is nearly useless. It's slow, choppy, stopping, jumping....
At first, i thought it was caused by my pc. So i bought a new computer, a Dell Precision Workstation T3610 with 32GB RAM, K4000 GPU, Intel Xeon Processor, SSD and SATA Drive. I'm not a pro in editing, but i think, that this configuration should be strong enough to show at least 3 tracks.
First i tried 9 tracks and if this wouldn't work, it would be ok for me....:-)
....but only 3, 3 TRacks with 1920x1080 // 24fps ?? Should working, or?
Maybe with this system more than 4 cams are possible.
I'm sure this MUST work, because two years ago, with an older version of Premiere and a slower PC, i edited 6 Tracks and it worked. It must be a problem caused by false settings or something else.
The system runs on the SSD Disk, also Premiere.
My Videofiles are located on an internal SATA Drive // 7200. In project setting i stored Previewfiles on an external USB 3.0 drive.
1. So...often i read that every videofile in my project should be on another harddrive...but ...hmmm...now i have tree harddisks...isn't that enough?
Every angle = a new hdd?
2. Project Setting -> Video / Audio Recording, Video / Audio Preview?
3. I found out something which is maybe interesting:
3 or more angles are working perfect if im using the "Source Monitor". When i do the same in the "Program Monitor" Premiere is going down, the Preview is chopy and stopping.
So my simple question: In both windows, source and program monitor, the feature is the same: 3 video angles. Why are the playing so different????
Maybe it's a bug?
I would work in this way...no problem for me...source or programm....what the matter? But in the source monitor i don't have the cutting feature....so i HAVE to use the programm monitor.
What should i do????I
'm getting more and more desperate.... :-)
Excuse my english, i hope i could explain the problem good enough, so that you understand and maybe help me.
Thank you very much
KikiI have the exact same problem. I used to be able to edit multicam sequences, HD footage, 2-3 cameras at about only 17 mbps or so, with ease. NOw the PC chokes on it. It plays for several seconds, then stops for about ten seconds. I hear my fan spinning faster. It happens if I have the multicam monitor on, but lately it seems to happen for single camera editing as well.
I'm going to check my nVidia drivers, but I think they're all up to date. I'll check for dust in my PC. Not sure what else to try. Bypassing my USB3 hub? Copy project to a different (new) USB3 hard drive? -
I've been doing a little bit multicam editing with FCPX now and when using multiple cameras on a single occasion everything goes nice and smooth. But now I have a different kind of situation that I need some good ideas with. I have been shooting a live art performance with a single camera in multiple occasions and I want to cut them as a one multiangled video. The thing is, the show is never quite the same. There is (pre-recorded) music and dance that always goes the same, but there is speech and other not beat-by-beat stuff in between. Syncing is a nightmare since the whole thing is unsyncable.
I am now open for all kinds of ideas, so keep them coming. Should I edit every music/dance-piece by themselves as a multicam clip, export, import and put together in a new project? The speech parts might be undoable with multicam tool, but that won't need lots of cuts anyway. I've been trying a bit of this and that, but have no idea what would be most convenient way to do this. I think some kind of splitting into scenes kind of thing needs to be done anyway for my media.If I understand correctly, you want to make a movie out of multiple takes of more or less the same performance and I'm not sure how Multicam doesn't create more issues than it solves. The idea of multicam is to display different angles of a single take – usually with a common audio source. So unless I'm overlooking something (which wouldn't surprise me in the slightest) introducing multicam into the workflow would make your task more difficult.
One approach would be to lay out the parts (clips) of the performance you feel best tell the story on the primary storyline. Then use secondary storylines from the best takes to add interest as cutaways. Alternatively, if you wanted single source sound, you could experiment with a music bed as your primary stroyline, but then I think you would constantlly be wrestling with sync.
Best of luck on your project.
