Organizer preview seems slow?  Is 2-3 seconds per picture normal?

Hi,
Wondering what normal render time is for a JPG in organizer when at maximum thumbnail size (i.e. 1 photo on the screen at a time).
e.g. When browsing photos in organizer right now I find it takes about 2.5 to 3 seconds for an image to go from 'blurry' to sharp. This makes for very slow workflow when trying to quickly review images.
Is this amount of time normal?
Files in question approx 3MB each 2848x4288 resolution.
PSE 6
Vista
3GB RAM
AMD 64 X2 5000+ (2.6GHZ)
NVIDIA 8300 GS

Try these options:
1) In the Organizer; under File->Catalog, select your catalog and click Optimize. OR
2) In the Organizer; under File->Catalog, select your catalog and click Repair. OR
3) Try rebuilding the thumbnails as per these steps:
3.1. In Help > System Info, find the folder containing your catalog.
3.2. Exit PSE.
3.3. In that folder, delete the file thumb.5.cache.
3.4. Restart PSE.
3.5. Edit > Select All.
3.6. Edit > Update Thumbnail.
Let me know if this resolves the issue.

  • Does The New CS4 Media Encoder Seem Slow?

    I selected some B-Roll that was shot in P2 1080i and brought it into a standard definition project. I scaled it to about 44% and sped up one timelapse segment by about 900%. The resulting length was about 8 minutes.
    Transcoding this 8 minute sequence into 720x480 NTSC With the CS4 Media Encoder is taking over 3 hours! This is on a system with an Intel Q6600 processor.
    Has anyone else noticed that the new Media Encoder seems slower? I don't think it uses existing render files like previous versions of Premiere.

    "DV project. If you have three clips AND THE 2ND ONE is color corrected then you do a 'preview render' that 2nd clip is rendered to dv so it will play real time in your timeline. Then when you render out to DVD clip 2 is rendered yet again to Mpeg-2. It has been rendered twice, it a second generation image unlike CLIP 1 AND 3 WHICH are still first generation before the Mpeg encoding"
    Sorry typing faster than my brain. Sorry trying to get work done and help people got the better of my fingers brain. The above is corrected with the corrected in CAPS.
    In a nutshell when you use preview files your telling the computer to use files that have already lost a generation to make your edit faster.
    If you edit DV the preview renders the effect (or whatever) to whatever is set in the sequence files. So a new DV file is made, which is rendered into an MPEG (or quicktime, Blu-ray whatever).
    "But if you are saying that re-render renders the already rendered preview clip, I believe that you may be in error. I thought re-render ignored the previews and looked to the source file(s) again. Am I wrong?"
    Yes your wrong because your assuming the preview render was done in the format your outputing in AME. If re-render 'ignored the previews and looked for the source file(s) again' there wouldn't be any render to 're-render'.
    The Preview render renders a new file based on your media codec (dv to dv, HDV to i-frame. dvcpro to dvcpro). It has no way of knowing what your final setting in AME are going to be. So preview files are double rendered.

  • PSE9 Organizer is very slow

    The organizer is very slow and take over a minute just to page from one screen to another.  I took off facial recognition but that only helped minimally.  Is this an improvement?  Previously used PSE 6 which worked fine.
    This is test of the trail version on a Vista SP2 Intel 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo with 2GB of memory

    After a couple of days of testing I've decided to pass on PSE9 :-
    Don't like the Organiser color - the light grey is far to light and don't like the grid around the photos
    The font for filename, tag name etc is far too small
    The organiser performance is slower than PSE7 - doesn't render photos instantly like PSE7, things like adding tags and anything done on multiple items seems to be slower in PSE9 than PSE7.
    Yes the new features are OK - but I cannot work with PSE9 so I'm passing on it.

  • Internet seems slow on macbook

    When i open safari it's slow to load up my homepage. Is this normal? Also internet browsing seems slow. I have a 20 meg connection.

    Hi,
    Slow speed is a pretty qualitative measure, so it is difficult to say. The Apple home page is pretty busy, and I think it might trigger Quicktime to load, which might take a few extra seconds. You could try setting your start page to a simpler UK web page or just have Safari start with a blank page.
    BBC has a speed test you can try:
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7416471.stm
    I tried the BBC speed test and I got 1.8 megabits/s over my connection that's nominally 3 megabits/s. I'm pretty far away in Ohio, US.

    I'm on Option 3 - my connection seems slow. I was unable to use the speed tester on the BT site because the latency was too high. Are these results typical?

  • Has Apple acknowledged the problem yet with itunes aborting preview of songs after about 10 seconds on windows 7 and if so is there an answer other than ipconfig?

    Has Apple acknowledged the problem yet with itunes aborting preview of songs after about 10 seconds on windows 7 and if so is there an answer other than ipconfig?  IPConfig /flushdns doesn't help at all.  Until they fix it I will be previewing and buying my songs thru Amazon.

    Doublechecking ... do you still get that if you update to iTunes 10.6.3.25 (just released today)?

  • In Itunes store, song preview plays for only 5-10 seconds and then stops. Songs in my Itunes library play start to finish.

    In Itunes store, song preview plays for only 5-10 seconds and then stops. Songs in my Itunes library play entirely from start to finish.

    My Itunes previews have been playing fully now for the past few days. After trying every suggestion possible to fix the problem of 5-10 second previews, I took the advice on one feed to use OpenDNS for your network internet connection. There are internet sites that will instruct you how to do it. Just Google "opendns for (your operating system)". I have Windows XP and followed a video instruction at www.top-windows-tutorals.com/using-opendns.html. Afterward, close your browser and then flush the DNS Resolver cache; Start/Run, type CMD in the open field, click OK, in resulting window type ipconfig/flushdns, press return on keyboard. No guarantees, but my browser is faster and my Itunes previews are playing fully so far. But I still shudder every time I hit the preview button.

  • All Email seems slow since 4S (not just iCloud mail)

    Ever since I upgraded from my 4 to a 4s all my email seems slow.
    This includes my former mobileme email as well as an exchange server from work.
    For example right now I am looking at an email on my phone that shows as "new" even through I deleted the email from my computer 2 hours ago via mail.app and exchange. I also have sent myself email at this address from my phone and it shows no problem going through but never show up in the other account.
    mobileMe has a smiliar problem but it sometimes doesn't even want to send. I have no confidence I am getting all my emails into my mobile me account. I know at least one person said they got an invalid address when using my @mac.com address, but others seem to have worked fine.

  • My Preview is Slow :(

    Since the new update (Im not sure) of Adobe Muse ..... the Muse preview has slowed down ... even the browse (chrome) preview takes a very long time to load. Its definitly not my computer because i have a really powerfull machine. Can some one helpo me ???

    Hey ! Zak !
    Thanks for the reply !
    - Im currently running Adobe Muse 7.3  and the update was from 7.2 to 7.3.
    - Im using a Mac. All my machines are the top of the line models.
    - When i perview my site using Adobe Muse i get something like this  (http://192.168.2.10:33333/Preview/mysite/index.html)
    - Here is the businesscatalyst website.......ive just started working on it......so yea : http://onefoot01.businesscatalyst.com
    Since previewing within Muse was taking too long.... i started to publish my site and preview it as a website from businesscatalyst.com which was really really fast !
    For example...say...If you use the built in "Muse Preview" option the site or page takes a very long time to load fully.... i even tried putting only a blank canvas with a simple colourfill, this itself took a long time.
    Is there a way to fix this issue ????

  • PSE9 Organizer Preview not matching Raw Processing preview

    I noticed the preview in Organizer does not match the preview when I open it in the Raw processing window of Elements. The Organizer preview is much more saturated and when I process the file in the Raw processor the preview updates with the added adjustments making it look like its over processed.
    Does anyone know what is causing this problem.
    I am working on a Mac 10.5.8 and I have the regular Creative Suite 5 installed on the computer.

    The ACR version used are different in PSE and PS CS5. That can be cause of change in preview. Can you open same image in PSE and PS and then compare if they are different.
    make sure you have set ACR dialog box settings to default and not custom or nay otehr saved settings.
