Jerky and noisy playback of Motion 5 project

I am having problems with the playback of Motion 5 title projects. A simple three word title over a short video background plays back in jerks and with a series of clicks. I have tried rendering at different quality levels with no effect. When the project is shared into FCPX exactly the same happens, though the same project title made in FCPX plays back smoothly and without jerks. I should appreciate any help advice.

I would suspect the background movie. In the inspector see what codec it is and if h.264 or some other compressed codec, then take it into Compresssor or MPEG Streamclip and convert it to a Pro Res 422 or Pro Res LT file.
Good luck.

The timeline and cursor move very jerky (in a continual chattery motion) in Windows 8.1

in my project the timeline and/or the cursor move very jerky (in a continual chattery motion ) in windows 8.1
i have set the Windows Software Compatibility setting for their "Window 7 emulator" and the condition still persists.
also the "fullscreen playback" for the project used to be very fine resolution and now it is very mushy...
all this tells me there are real problem with my Premier Element 10

You are running Premiere Elements 10 on Windows 8.1 64 bit. The program works just fine in Windows 8.1 64 bit when run Windows 8.1.
So do not go altering to another operating system. I know this first hand.
The immediate factor that needs ruling in or out is your video card/graphics card. Specifically "Does your Windows 8.1 64 bit use
a NVIDIA GeForce card? If so, that may be your answer. See Announcement at the top of this forum which describe the Premiere
Elements 10 NVIDIA GeForce problem and gives the fix of how to roll back the card's driver version to get Premiere Elements 10
to work for you.
Once we are assured that you are not afflicted by Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA GeForce syndrome and also know that your current
video card/graphics card driver is up to date, then we can move on to seek other factors that may be causing the problem.
For your convenience, the following is a copy/paste of the Announcement about the issue as it appears at the top of this forum.
All the links and how tos that you will need are in this announcement.
Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card and you are experiencing
Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling
back the video card driver version instead of assuring that it is up to date.
Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and unexplained workflow glitches
specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies to you, then
the “user to user” remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of the problems. The
typical driver roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA
nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1317675
Older NVIDIA GeForce drivers can be found

Why is playback in motion almost in half speed for me?

why is playback in motion almost in half speed for me?

It all depends on the amount and complexities of the layesrs and effects that you have and then on your system and graphics card. You have not mentioned any of that - I am sure an expert or 2 will reply if you give them some details to work on.
Have you tried to "render out" your project first before playing (CMD+R)? Then check your playback speed.

I bought a movie on iTunes but when I try to watch it plays back slowly with no sound. Then the video will speed up and the sound will work for a moment then off again and back to slow motion. I have a dell laptop running windows 7

Jerky and "Not In Real Time"

Why is my footage in AF 5.5 jerky and why do I get a message in red saying"Not in Real Time"?
Any ideas please?

You're not giving us any information to work with to help you. We need to know a lot more to help you. Please provide answers to the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"
I'm going to take a guess, and I'm guessing that you are previewing by pressing the space bar. Don't do that. Use RAM preview to get real-time playback of previews.

Apple TV jerky and audio sync mavericks

Apple TV with Mavericks, was working fine before update, now it is very jerky and sound does not sync in mirror or extended desktop

Howdy spyder1100101,
It sounds like your Airplay is having some performance issues and will not function as expected.
I want to recommend the troublehsooting steps from the article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4215
Troubleshooting performance issues with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring
If you are experiencing intermittent playback or significant network lag with AirPlay or AirPlay Mirroring, it could be due to a weak Wi-Fi connection, interference, or the distance between the Wi-Fi router and your iOS device, Apple TV or AirPort Express.
Try the following suggestions:
Ensure that other devices are not trying to stream to the same Apple TV at the same time.
Turn off Bluetooth on your iOS device by tapping Settings > Bluetooth.
Ensure that your Wi-Fi router is set up with the recommended settings for the best performance.
Certain external devices, such as microwave ovens and baby monitors, may interfere with a Wi-Fi network. Try moving or disabling these devices.
If possible, try to locate your Wi-Fi router in the same room as your iOS device and Apple TV.
If your wireless and wired networks are the same, try connecting your Apple TV to the router via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi.
If the Wi-Fi router has an external antenna, check to see that is it connected properly and in good condition.
Use the Wi-Fi network troubleshooting guide to resolve interference and other issues.
Additional Information
If you are using iTunes, please see these troubleshooting guidelines.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

Motion 4 crashes when opening Motion 3 project

Updated to new box and software. I have a ton of projects that were built w/ motion 3.
I reuse all motions movements and effects with replacement of text & video only. When I open Motion 3 project i get the prompt "This is earlier version..." and asks Open Orig or Open as Untitled. Have tried both and same result ....crashola. I've been doing this for awhile and need to open these....
Haven't seen this in searching community....
Thanx in advance

I'm having the same problem too. I've tried opening the file with and without Motion being open, opened as Original file and untitled document. It just crashes, here's the top of my crash report

Problems with Apple ProRes 4444 and alpha channels in Motion 4 after upgrade to Snow Leopard. Has anyone seen this?

We've just now upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard and are having a problem with Apple ProRes 4444 and alpha channels in Motion 4. A clip with an alpha which keyed perfectly before the upgrade, now will not key. If I convert the clip to the Animation codec, it keys perfectly. If I export the Motion project as a ProRes 4444 self contained movie, it will key when brought into FCP 7 but if I import the project into FCP 7, it will show the key in the viewer but not the canvas. Has anyone seen this or have any suggestions on how to correct this? Is it a bug?
Thanks,

Motion 4.0.3
It just doesn't seem to recognize the alpha at all.

Erasing Motion 3 Projects Cleanly

Hello....
I have been a FCP Studio 2 (FCS 6-Soundtrack Pro-Compressor-DVD Studio Pro) user for the last couple years now, and I'm just trying to figure out Motion 3. (I know....don't ask. lol)
Anyway, I was doing a test EFX project over video that I shot, and after completing it, and sending it back to FCP for encoding into a MPEG4 file, I then went back to the project file on Motion and erased everything connected with it. The dated/time folders, ect.
That I found out was something of a mistake, because when I tried to boot Motion again, the welcome page came up, but after hitting that, the project pane never showed up again.
So....after realizing there isn't that much time for OSX Leopard as well as FCS 2 (Plus my 'Puter.), I took my original system drive, erased it, installed all of the OS from scratch, and then doing the same with FCS 2, updates, drivers, ect. and then use Time Machine to backup again to the 500 Gig. system drive. (Then taking the 160 out of the drive bay and putting it aside again.)
It's a bit extreme I know, but it's the only way to be sure that everything is working again....
So...is there a way to get rid of Motion 3 projects and sending them to the trash without residuals, and clearing up hard drive space +without damaging the program beyond repair?+ :/
Thanks....

Well, let me see....
At the time, I deleted all of the files that related to the test footage that I was working on. One of them might have been one of the Motion system files, but I'm not sure.
I guess what I am trying to say here is: Is there a simple way to send any finished project files or project files that I don't need anymore directly to the trash?
I'd suggest you try deleting the Motion Preferences file first before a full re-install...
Hmmm....is that an easier way to get Motion back online?
I did a full re-install (And backup) of Final Cut Studio 2 because Version 3 is out now, and most if not everyone has turned they're backs on the older software already....
Thanks....
BTW, do you have a solution or work-around to my other question also?

Motion 5 Projects In Premiere Pro CC

I recently went from Final Cut Studio to Adobe Creative Cloud and was pleased when I discovered that I could import Motion 4 projects into Premiere Pro CC and they worked just as well in the timeline as they did in Final Cut 7. Unfortunately OSX Mavericks has some performance issues with Motion 4, so I decided to upgrade to Motion 5 as it is only $50 in the app store. Now whenever I import a Motion 5 project into Premiere it imports fine, but when I add it to the timeline it just displays the media missing message in the Program monitor, is says "Media Missing in Motion File Untitled.motn" (Untitled.motn is just the name I gave my test Motion project).
Is there any steps I can take to remedy this? I really liked being able to use Motion for quick graphics, so if I could get Motion 5 projects to wok in Premiere Pro CC that would great! I understand that I could export the Motion 5 project, but this means I need to reexport every time I want to make a change, the convenience of seeing the change take place in real time cannot be understated.
Motion 5.1
Premiere Pro 7.2.2
OSX 10.9.3

I'm in the same boat as you...
Pretty safe to say that Motion 5 is not supported. Time to learn After Effects.

Importing motion 4 project to motion 5 impossible

Hi, I just bougth Motion 5 and I can't import my old Motion 4 project !

When i create a circle in photoshop and import it to Motion 5, it becomes more of an oval shape than a circle in motion.

When i create a circle in photoshop and import it to Motion 5, it becomes more of an oval shape than a circle.even though the size of the document i worked in photoshop is the same as that in motion 5. which is Pal D1/DV 720 x 576.
Thanks

hi,
check the pixel aspect ratio in both the photoshop file and Motion project and make sure they match too. Or simply resize in Motion until round again. or even easier create the circle in Motion directly.

Loss of Audio and Video Playback

Hello.
I am currently using Adobe CS6 Production Premium on Windows 7 Ultimate. I have updated alll of my sound card drivers.
While in Premiere Pro, if I unplug my headphones, so that I can hear through my speakers, the video and audio playback hangs. In order for both playbacks to work again, I must restart the program. The program itself does not freeze, as I am able to drag clips as well as save the project.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You.
Tyler

Flash Player 10.1 is jerky and freezes - Apple Mac

I have a MacBook (a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 2 GB of memory (1067 MHz DDR3)) running OS10.6 and had an issue with Flash 10.1 - ie. it was jerky and the picture would occasionally freeze... BUT only when trying to play a live stream. Note, watching highlighted clips were fine - ie. the quality of the playback was not jerky.
Anyways, I managed to resolve this issue by TURNING OFF the Hardware Acceleration feature within Flash Player 10.1 - which comes switched on as a default. To turn off the Hardware Acceleration feature, select the link shown below, then control-click the animated Flash Player logo and select 'Settings' from the displayed options. This will open and display the Adobe Flash Player Settings option box. Simply click inside the ticked-box next to the words: Enable Hardware Acceleration, which disables this option. It also means that you should now be able to watch live streaming using Flash Player 10.1 on your Apple Mac without the feed being jerky or freezing etc.
The required link for resolving this issue is: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
(but remember, one has to conrol-click the animated red Flash Player logo when first shown etc.)
A big thanks to eidnolb for helping to resolve this issue for me (and for you too).

Hi Bob, Great!! Excellent choice of subject. Thanks for starting your thread and the great post including the issue, the solution and instructions:-)
It is always nice to have your computer working as it should. Thanks for marking your thread as answered as we have many Mac users posting to the Flash Forum.
