Playback very slow

Unbelievably, for the first time I am working with HD video in FCE4.  I acquired some .mov files from a shoot using a Canon 5D Mark II.  I know my iMAC is 'old' - G5 PPC with a gig of RAM and a 2ghz processor.  I imported the files just fine from an external drive (Firewire 400) but the playback is slow to the point where it's pointless to even try.  What can I do?

Thanks! Seems to be working great.  Another quick question - the camera used was not my own, so the raw footage essentially was transferred to a portable drive.  The clips are all automatically separated -  is there a way to convert them all together?  Obviously it's very time consuming doing one clip at a time, when I have 52 clips.  Thanks!

  • AVCHD DOWNLOADS BUT PLAYBACK VERY SLOW

    I can download AVCHD to premier 7 from my SONY Handycam, but playback is slow and "sketchy". I also have downloaded these same videos to the software that SONY provides - "picture motion browser" - and it plays just fine. Is there a setting issue with premier 7? I am new to this so any help would be great and much appreciated.

    Picture Motion Browser is a simple player rather than a video editor. Did you select the correct project preset for your video project at the start up splash screen... ie the appropriate AVCHD project preset?
    Also to edit AVCHD you need a powerful processor, I would recommend a quad core or as a minimum a very fast dual core. If your machine is not up to spec then you will need to hit Enter on your keyboard to render the clip, it should then play back smoothly.

  • Video playback very slow/failing with both iGPU and dGPU enabled simultaneously

    Until a couple of months ago, my PC was running with an i5 760 and my current Radeon HD 7850 on Premiere Elements 11 just fine - playback was smooth and I could edit my videos just fine.
    However, recently I installed a new CPU and motherboard - an i7 4770K. The key feature here is that it has an integrated GPU (hence referred to as "iGPU") which can run in tandem with my current dGPU (discrete GPU, the HD 7850) by having encoding jobs such as rendering videos and transcoding sent to the iGPU in a feature called Quick Sync. In order to utilise this, I had to bind a virtual monitor to my motherboard's VGA port (as according to this post made by vaesauce on the OBS forums), and for all related applications it worked perfectly (HandBrake transcodes really quickly, and I can stream with OBS with negligible performance overhead). Except one - Premiere Elements 11.
    When I booted up Premiere Elements 11 to edit a short clip yesterday, I was greeted with a screen that informed me I had incompatible drivers. I went and checked my video drivers for both of my GPUs - both up to date - reinstalled them and rebooted. Tried once again, same issue. Going on to try and edit just resulted in audio playback, and a complete failure of video playback. I found the solution was to disable my iGPU in device manager, then it works fine.
    Now, here is my question - how can I have both the dGPU and iGPU enabled and still be able to edit videos with Premiere Elements 11? While it does work in this fashion, the constant going into device manager before and after editing a video is very annoying (also, I'm sure PrEl 11 could itself benefit from the QuickSync!)

    Don't disable the Intel GPU. Causes more problems then it fixes. Here's your solution believe it or not. Go to download.com and find the K-Lite Codec Pack_Full and install. It seems that the new updates have been messing peoples system's ability to read Codecs. This fixed my problem and I've been searching all day every day for over a week now.

  • CS4 playback very slow

    I have rencently updated my system to a dual quad core computer with 6GB ram and a good NVIDA video card. I have also updated from Premiere 2.0 to CS 4. I am dealing with HD quality footage (most of them QT Animation codec as my source footage). On a lesser system with Premiere 2.0 I was getting better playback in the Premiere UI. Right now if I play the footage in the UI I get something like 3 fps - really jittery which makes it impossible to edit. It does not make sense to me that I would get lesser feedback with that current system and an updated version of Premiere?..Even with display quality set to draft. I must be missing something pretty obvious somewhere as no one else seem to have that problem. Anyone knows what I am doing wrong?
    Joel

    Thanks for your interest and help Harm. I'll try to be more specific here.
    1. Dual Quad Core - does that mean 2 CPU's, each a Intel Xeon Quad Core?  Which ones? Type number please, like E5420
    2 CPUs, each Intel Xeon E5520 2.26 GHz
    Which motherboard? Which version of Win7?
    Motherboard is ACPI x64 based PC. Windows version: Windows 7 Professional.
    2. OK.
    3. How many physical disks, what size and speed, what interface, what space available on each?
    2 physical disks. Local disk has 465GB total with 223 GB free. Second hard drilve has 1.5 TB with 835 GB free. The source footage is on the first (local) drive). Both of them are internal harddrive with SATA connection.
    4. That is not possible, you have at least 20+ running even on a highly tuned system, but possibly more than 60.
    you are right I have about 80 services running. I have not changed any settings on this since I installed my computer so all default services are on.
    5. Indexing on or off, pagefile size and location, Windows managed or fixed, services turned off or stopped, etcetera?
    Indexing is on, pagefile size is set to 9211MB for the local disk (custom size, not window managed) and the same for the second harddrive. I have not turned off any service.
    6. OK.
    Hope this gives you the picture. again,. thanks for your help.

  • Record playback is very slow between Flash Server and Flash

    hi all
    I have done server side recording successfully with red5 flash media server and can see
    that the flv record is being created properly.
    Then if I try to playback the record like
    NetStream.play("record.flv"), I see that stream playing is very very
    slow, for both of audio and video.
    And then if I try to playback the recorded file via using the
    filesystem path of it, everthing seems fine.
    Problem occurs when I try to sucscribe and play the stream of the record.
    PS : There is no problem with playing the published stream
    (NetStream.play("streamName"))
    Does anyone have an idea about this issue?
    If you need any additional information, please let me know.
    Thanks in advance

    Hello Fabio,
    Just for confirmation.
    Is the Integration Services is updated on all VMs on that particular host? IC version.
    Could you please compare the vNIC properties/advanced between the functioning VM and the slowest VM network?
    All VMs have one vNIC or more than one?
    How are you copying out data from within the VM? \\IP Address\  OR \\DNS name\ ?
    Is the file transfer issue around the same two VMs?
    Could you please double check the Adapters and Bindings priority under
    Network Connection\Advanced\Advanced Settings?

    In a nutshell flowplayer delivers the video through your web
    browser. It does this via http protocol (port 80) and progressive
    download on any web server
    Progressive download finds the video on the server and plays
    it back through the player as it is being downloaded. 2 important
    things to take from this are 1, the video is being downloaded to
    the clients hard drive, at the end of the playback they will have a
    copy of your video that they can do whatever they like to and
    repost it somewhere else. 2, It plays back as it downloads, meaning
    if I'm viewing a 10 minute video from your site and want to skip
    ahead to the middle or end I have to wait for the whole video to
    download before viewing those segments. Your web host by the way
    will love you for progressive download because it will appear as
    though your transfer rate has gone through the roof. Once the
    request for the video is made there is no turning back, the client
    gets the whole thing whether they watch it or not.
    Flash media server uses the rtmp protocol. This protocol is
    an open socket protocol through port 1935. This is a two way street
    essentially. When the user views a video using FMS they basically
    get only enough of the video to keep the connection open and
    satisfy the required buffer to assure clean playback. The bytes of
    info that carry the video only go to the users memory, not the hard
    drive. This allows the user to jump back and forth around in the
    movie without having to wait for the whole thing to download.
    Hope that helps.

  • Very slow editing, playback sluggy even after render ...

    I working on a movie, footage is mostly 1080p 50 fr. For the moment the movielenght on the timeline  is only 8 minutes and editing is becoming so hard because of the slowness of some tasks...
    I explain:
    1) At start up loading this latest project is slow
    2) Media asset pannel: thumbnails of footage is loading very slow when you go to another folder
    3) Pre-viewing of (a part of) the footage already added to the timeline (expertmode) is sluggy, but sometimes even when pre-rendering with the renderbutton is done (the render markers are correct placed) !
    Also a crash op PE sometimes happens (but not so frequent)
    Final rendering to a format (dvd, mp4 etc) works well but ofcourse it's difficult to make a good movie if pre-viewing of the timelinefootage is not working well ...
    So my question is if I replace my internal (ram) memory in my pc from 8 GB to 16 GB, would this fix all this 3 problems ?
    I have only 2 memory banks, now with 2x4 gb so I would have to buy 2x8 that's more than 100 euro (more than PE itselfs thus ...).
    My pc works well for a recent game like Far Cry 3 so I don't need the memory for other programs ... So I want to be shure if this will fix it.
    Finally, my config: PC has a small ssd with win 7 home premium and PE 11 dutch, all other data on traditional HD, separate ghraphics card:

    That's almost the same as right-click and runas admin, the only difference is that you don't have to right-click. The problem with this solution I mentioned above already:
    windows acts than like you are the admin and the admin documentsfolderlocations is the standard instead of yours folderlocations (so all your footage, pictures and all data you want to use in your project should be than in the admin documentsfolders instead of your own user folder ....
    Than it's better to change the useraccountpermission in admin, that's what I did now. So I'm working with an account with full adminrights now. That's not very safe but I want to give it a try for the time of the project-in-use . I've updated also the graphic and audio drivers.
    I've also disabled temporary AV.
    All this didn't change anything for loading the thumbnails when you open a project. It still takes minutes to load and the first time after startup opening a subfolder in the assetspanel also takes again minutes (only the first time after startup, if you later go back in that subfolder thumbnails are showed almost directly).
    Play-back of timeline seems almost ok now, but this was already yesterday the case (since the scratchlocations didn't change anymore)
    In the manual I read that it is advised to defrag the scratchlocations from time to time. But win vista/7/8 have auto defrag ... ?

  • Very slow running CUITs in both Visual Studio and Microsoft Test Manager

    I've tried the exact same test cases on another less powerful computer and it runs perfectly. However on one machine it runs very slow. It seems to take ages finding execute each step. Not sure what is going on. Help greatly appreciated.

    Hi Daithi,
    Based on your issue, I suggest you could try to create a simple coded UI test such as you can record the Calculator action and then check if you still get the issue about
    running CUITs very slow in VS.
    In addition, I suggest you could try to delete all the temp files from your system and other temp files, or in short you can just log off and then log in back again....you'll definitely find your automation run faster.
    There are two blogs shared us some suggestions to improve the coded UI test performance, I often use them, if possible, please check them.

  • Suddenly very slow export

    Hi.  Basically, my export has gone very slow.  I will give what details I can, but the main thing here is that I am doing what I have always done, but suddenly it is going very slow.  I export to MPEG2 DVD as that goes straight onto a DVD without further render in my Sony DVD maker program.  Export in Premiere usually takes between 30 and 40 minutes. Latyest project is warning me of over 3 hours!  I thought I would ask here before waiting and seeing if it still works okay in case there is an obvious answer.  MPEG audio, multiplexer on, maximum mrender depth, CBR slider set to make a file that will be as large to preserve quality and still fit on a DVD (I go for around 4GB or just over)  Stick to CBR as the estimated file size is more accurate than messing about with VBR sliders.  Projects are standard definition, two video sources mixed (full DV) and separate sound source added and synchronised.  I film stage plays with two cameras.  Projects typically between one and a half and two and a half hours long.  This project is actually at the lower end.  No other obvious problems with the PC in general.  Is it worth a system restore?  It was fine for a project similar size rendered last week.  I am asking befoire i try system restore as they are getting hard to do.  They never seem to work unless I remove all my virus protection stuff!  CAn I think of anything different about this project?  Well, only that the venue I was filming in was not quite level, resulting in a bit of an angle that I corrected by tilting the film just a few degrees.  (Only affecting the part of the picture that would be off the TV screen) just to make the stage look level.  I often do this with a few shots from one of the cameras, but maybe not the whole film for both cameras like in this case.  I even tried pressing enter and doing that render thingy before export.  That did not help.  Maybe that is just to get something better in the preview window.  Normally it just takes around half an hour or just over.  Media player can be a bit crackly and choppy playing the rendered movie, but then it is always fine on the DVD so I just put that down to windows media playing being a bit rubbish and not important in my case.  Sorry if I have neglected to tell you anything important.  I usually get told off for this on this forum, but I have tried to give you details about the settings I am using.  The main thing is that I am only doing what I usually do.  If I was exporting to a different format I might expect a different time.  I can tell you that I got bored waiting and cancelled a few times before coming on here.  A couple of times the screen went very white and said windows would close the problemn and notify me of any solution.  Program closed but no useful information (I would not really have expected Windows to give me any!).  Maybe someone here can?   I suppose I had better wait for the three hours or more and at least see what comes out, but cant help being scared it will freeze at 37.34 percent and I will give up after waiting three weeks!  But any suggestions would be helpful.  Sorry not very tech-savvy so please keep it to plain English.  Thanks in advance

    Without knowing your computer specs, hard to comment on how long an export ought to take. However, you said yourself that you may have applied rotation to much of the video, and perhaps that is slowing things down from normal.
    Please check that your hard drives are defragged and are not getting more than 70-80% full as performance can quickly degrade. I would turn OFF the "Max Bit Depth" and "Max Render Quality" if being used. Should not be needed for DV clips going to DVD. As for pre-rendering the timeline, not recommended. This just adds another layer of compression (quality loss) to the final render, IF you check "Use Previews" in the Export area. If not using Previews, then it is all getting re-rendered anyways, so just a waste of time and drive space really, unless playback is so terrible that you want to render a section to check the results before exporting.
    I notice you have MultiPlexing ON for the export - is that how the Sony DVD software wants it? Most authoring programs (like Encore) perform better with separate elements of audio and video, meaning the .wav and .m2v files. Reason being that the DVD program will usually be creating Dolby (AC3) audio for the final DVD, so if you feed it the raw elements, it can convert the .wav to .ac3 quickly, and will NOT need to transcode the video. If you Mux (combine) the audio and video, the audio has then been compressed to lossy MPEG audio, then the DVD software needs to separate the audio and video and re-encode them again in most cases. Not the best workflow. Unless your final DVD uses MPEG audio, but I'm not sure that is a legal part of the spec worldwide, is normally PCM or AC3 for player compatibility.
    Not a big fan of anti-virus programs, have found many of the popular ones to really take over and bog down the system. Personally, I use and recommend the free solution of Microsoft Security Essentials. My computer, and those of my kids, have been virus-free the last couple of years since going to that solution, and I see no decrrease in performance and it runs in the background totally transparent to me.

  • ITunes sync is very slow?

    iTunes sync is very slow with several minutes of the spinning color dot.  Usually happens during the last step (7) of the sync.  I then discover that even though I marked to sync all photos from Aperture file, photos are not synced.  iTunes seems to be getting more and more of a problem.  Any thoughts?

    Hi,
    I have an Intel i3770K processor, with 32GB RAM, and a GTX 770 Card.
    I'm actually having playback issues in PP with blackmagic footage in 1080p, it's very slow. Even footage from my Canon 70D, etc. when trying to edit all this footage is just not playing back well.
    How do I know that my GTX 770 card is actually working in PP CC? Is there a way to check?
    Also, is there a need to always encode all footage to a certain file type before editing?

    No.

    Hi,
    Are there any performance settings that can be done for the runScript.bat file? Playback gets very slow after just 20 iterations and Java consumes a lot of memory and CPU.
    I have a functional script to set up test accounts from a databank, so I need to do 1000 iterations or so.

    Hi
    For 1 iteration itself, runScript.bat command line execution is taking a lot of time than we execute from openscript editor. Have you got any solution for this...can you please share.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
    11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.
