Premiere Pro begins dropping frames after a few hours of editing

Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm running Premiere CC on a new iMac 27inch and after a few hours of editing both the source monitor and record monitor begin dropping frames at a pretty high rate. The only way I have found to fix this is to shutdown the computer. But in a few hours, I'm back to dealing with dropped frames. My iMac is tricked out with I7 processor, 32 gigs of ram, and an nvidia graphics card with 2 gigs of ram. I am editing with raw files from a Canon 5D, but the edits are pretty straightforward, nothing too complex. Does anyone know a fix for this?

since your name is sun baked...it could be you live in a hot area...could this be heat related ??

Premiere pro CC drop playback after update 7.2.1

Why premiere pro cc drop playback after update 7.2.1? I have a MacBook Pro late 2011 with ATI Radeon HD6770m 1GB. Premiere pro cc 7.1.0 run normal, ok, without crashing and drop-freeze frame, but after update 7.2.1 i have all this problems.

Just came on here to post about the buzzing transitions, glad to see it's been fixed already!
Another thing though I don't see mentioned, since moving to 7.2 I find audio playblack is out of sync while editing, and in some clips significantly more noticeably than others. This only happens during playback, if I pause and scrub manually, the audio is perfectly in sync. This actually messed up a project for a client. I thought the audio off the camera was out of sync in one segment so I bumped it a few frames before exporting. Didn't check it after of course and sent him the file, then got a reply back that it was out of sync in that spot. Check the exported video and sure enough, he was right. Check it again in project but it looks in sync. So I bump the audio back in the timeline so that it LOOKS out of sync again during playback, but the new exported video is perfectly in sync!
Editing a TV show now with hundreds of clips and it's maddening with some looking fine, some looking a little off, and some looking completely off and having to manually scrub to check and be sure along the way.
Hopefully this is also fixed in this update..will see tomorrow.

Internet connection drop away after a few hours of use- BS needs restarting

Hi,
I haven't looked into this problem in detail yet but just thought I'd see if there are any obvious possibilities that I don't know about to fix it:
Leaving my machine downloading from the internet connected via an 802.11b card to a white round extreme base station with the latest firmware it invariably starts to faulter (after a good few hours) and finally not work -- grinds to a hault. The signal strength is good, but once ground to a hault, selecting "Turn AirPort Off" and back on results in no connection with the base station. It's not working properly. Turning the base station off, then on seems to be the only way to make it work again.
Any suggestions/thoughts?
TIA,
John.

The first thing I would recommend doing is a SMC Reset. Please follow the directions closely as there are different directions for different Mac models.
After you have done that I would recommend running Repair Permissions in Disk Utility. Here are some directions if you have never done it.
1. Command, Tab then type Disk Utility
2. Highlight the drive in the upper left and make sure the First Aid tab is selected. Then click Repair Disk Permissions.
NOTE: You may get a lot of items that show up but for the most part you can ignore them. Here is an Apple article that explains.
Let us know if these steps help.

Final cut pro dropped frames after transition

Hi, I'm kind of new with FCP 7 and have an issue getting dropped frames after applying a transition effect into my video. Everything else is working right but just after I apply any dissolve or transitions the video hiccups.Even rendering it still jumps.
I'm using a canon rebel t2i which gives me a h.264 codec (I've read that is a hard format for editing) but it is the only one I got, is there a way to solve this issue ? Thanks!!

Solve it by transcoding the h.264 file to pro res using MPEGStreamclip.

Premiere Pro Dynamic Link to After Effects stopped working

For about 6 months my Link between Premiere Pro and After Fx is not working. Premiere Pro sends it to After FX but when it is there the composition is empty and no media has been exported, even though the PP timeline is marked as a linked compostion. Its entirely empty, the media has vanished.
Id love to fix this issue. I guess it's a reinstall???
Latest CC, 10bit BM uncompressed timeline, Maverick (though it wasnt working on snow leopard either).

Sorry guys, may have just found the problem! Just realised that somehow my CC version on my disk is not listed as downloaded in my Cloud drop down pane. So im updating it and im assuming that will fix the problem.

Dropped frames after upgrade to FCS2

Hi all,
Were getting dropped frames on capture since upgrading a system from 5.1.4 to fcp6 (FCS2)
System is MacPro with all updates installed. Raid is capable of 400MBs.
Prior to upgrade we captured 720P60 10bit uncompressed fine
Also playback of 2 layers in timeline with animated transparency on Trk2 was realtime, no dropped frames.
After upgradeto fcs2 + ATI1900XT + upgrade to Blackmagic driver 6.2
Capture of 720P60 8/10 bit FCP6 reports dropped frames after between 2>3 mins of capture on the fly from a non-contolable device.
Playback of a single stream is fine but if I add a track and lower the transparency FCP6 reports disk speed is to low to playback 2 streams.
The raid is osx extended. We did have it journaled even though we erased using just osx extended :-/ so re-formatted again and this time it stuck on just osx-extended.
I've set privacy on the raid for spotlight though did not do this before when it was working fine.
aja and blackmagic speed tests are reporting same speeds for the raid as prior to upgrade. 450MBs read 390MBs write.
We have a few external disks osx clones with old setup fcp5.1.4 on etc so will statup from one and see if this goes away.
Anyone else having capture playback framerate issues since upgrade?
Cheers

This gets harder to understand!..
So I re-boot off the internal with FCS2 and BM6.2 drivers on.
Open the projects. Add a clip to trk1.. add a clip above in trk2, animate transparency.. thinking yep.. will bomb out... nope.. now it plays fine as before!..
So between booting off another OSX drive with FCP 5.1.4 and BM6.1
Reboot off OSX drive with FCP6 and BM6.2 driver something changed :-/

I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function works

I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function, render workspace function, export file are still operational. How can I fix it so I may complete my assignment?
Besides DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Creative Suite 6 is the only software on the machine. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Operating System on AMD FX 6100 six-Core Processor at 3.31gHz and 32 GB RAM memory. There are two SLI-bridged GTX680 NVidia cards.
The software was very stable for the last six months, working with 720P proxy files from 2.5K masters (Blackmagic Design Camera). I am working on a feature-length project that exceeds 1000 edits. I have broken the file into 2 one hour segments.
I have deactivated the software before reinstalling the entire OS from scratch. PP6 was very stable for 48 hours. Then the freezing space bar returns. After a dozen strokes into the project, same problem. I have made cache files store next to originals, I have deleted preview files if they were corrupted and causing instability. Am I missing something?
I have Microsoft Security Essentials for virus protection. I double checked the memory for damage/defect. Nothing says that the motherboard or other components are damaged.
I am in film competition overseas and need to have deliverables in less than a month's time. I lost the last two weeks troubleshooting and this crisis came at an inopportune moment of the project.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Still getting software freezes but found a way to mitigate for the mean time.
Upon launching Adobe Premiere Pro, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to launch TaskManager as well.
You will want to highlight Adobe QT32 Server.exe
Right click and select "End Process Tree"
You will get considerable stability in the program, long enough to get timing of cuts done. Be sure to save often.
If the program freezes, do not hit Save. You definitely want to avoid saving the corruption into your TimeLine
CTRL-ALT-DEL to relaunch the TaskManager and highlight Adobe Premiere Pro.exe
Right-click to "End Process"
No need to reboot the whole system; just launch Premiere Pro again and continue with the session. Note that your work reverted to Last Save.
Hope this helps until the bug is fixed.

Why is Dynamic Link between Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014 not syncing audio changes?

When I try to use a Dyamic Link between something I've cut in Premiere and a composition in After Effects, if it is simply an audio level change it will not update in AE. Only if I alter the Video track does it then take the changes reflected. Any suggestions as to what is causing this?
Running Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014.

As Dave alludes, AfterEffects is all about the visual changes ... or at least, mostly. For changes to the audio outside of PrPro's internal controls, highly suggested you use Audition instead. It is all about the sound ... and yes, will update PrPro when used correctly.

How to work with Premiere Pro cs5.5 and After Effects cs5 together?

I have edited my movie in premiere pro cs5.5 and made the rough cut. In premiere, i have edited the video, put in soundtrack and foley. Now, i need to add muzzle flashes & blood splatters in some scenes and final color correction using After Effects cs5.
When i import the premiere project in AE and make the changes, and then i export it back as premiere project. When i open this prmiere project, it shows vaious kind of errors and no changes are retained that i did in AE. Also, when i import the premiere project (which has 4 different sequences) in AE, all the media that has been imported in the premiere project also opens in AE making it difficult to organize the media.
How should i work now so that i add vfx and color correction using AE cs5?
I thought of exporting the video from Premiere pro and then open the video in AE and add vfx to some scenes and color correction to the full video and render it out again. But, this is the first time i am using AE and i am not sure if this is the best way. PLEASE HELP.
Or, i could import the whole project in AE, add vfx, do color correction AND then export to video from AE. But i think, it will be better if i export the video from Premiere as it has loads of options to choose from while exporting to a movie.
The dynamic link does not work between Premiere Pro Cs5.5 and After Effects cs5. Even if it does, its not working on my pc.
All the footage is in HD and i want the final result in best quality HD too. PLEASE Help!

If you are working between After Effects and Premiere Pro but with versions that are not the same number, you need to just work with movies rendered and exported as intermediate, lossless files.
Dynamic Link only works between After Effects and Premiere Pro of the same version number, and only when they are installed as part of the same suite.

Mac book pro mid 2009 shuts down after a few hour then will only boot after waiting and pressing power button numerous times. I am running mountain lion with most recent updates.

Mac book pro mid 2009 shuts down after a few hour of use and then is very difficult to reboot. Sometimes I have to wait hours, sometimes I have to repeatedly press the power button and then it will slowly start a little longer each press untill it completely boots. It has done this three times know. Each time I was watching a video.

Try running the Apple Hardware Test - sounds as if you've hardware issues.

What operating system version, and do you have any backups of your data off the machine? TimeMachine? Option Key bootable clones? Storage? DVD's?
A reinstall of the operating system may be in order as a last resort, so if any of these steps on these links get you into the machine, make sure to backup your personal data (Music, Pictures, Documents, Movies) off the machine to a non-encrypted powered external drive regular storage drive (not TimeMachine as it might be corrupted too) and disconnect as soon as possible.
Good Luck and report back all what you tried.
Also report what change occured before this tragedy happened, was there a Software Update? A EFI firmware update? Etc.

Why is the Nvidia GTX 680 CUDA card supported by Premiere Pro CC, and NOT After Effects CC?

Why is the Nvidia GTX 680 CUDA card supported by Premiere Pro CC, and NOT After Effects CC?

Thanks Todd for all the info. It is much appreciated and very helpful. On a different note, could you possibly direct me to the correct forum to fix this bug? I am suddenly recieving a warning on my System SSD referencing Adobe Exchange. Here is a screen grab to best explain:

Premiere PRo CC Clip durch After Effects Komposition ersetzen funktioniert nicht

Wenn ich von Premiere aus einen Clip über die Funktion " Durch After Effects Komposition ersetzen" bearbeiten möchte, öffnet sich AE, legt ein neues Projekt an das ich dann auch speichere. Der Clip wird im Projektfenster auch angezeigt allerdings mit einer schwarzen Oberfläche. Wenn ich den Clip dann ins Kompositionsfenster ziehe wird eine neue Komposition angelegt aber das Vorschaufenster bleibt schwarz.
Wenn ich einen Clip den ich vorher aus Premiere exportiert habe und den dann in AE importiere funktionerts. Kann mir da jemand weiterhelfen????

Geht leider immer noch nicht. Kann zur Zeit nicht auf Forum zugreifen.

When I connect my guitar using apogee jam the note drops off after a few seconds. Why???

When I connect my guitar using apogee jam the note drops off after a few seconds. Why???
Its the same on most of the preset amps.
Please help, the apogee cost me £80!

Is it stopping recording after 8 seconds? Are you using Garage Band?
If both of these are correct:
This is actually a feature (i'm not sure why it defaults to this). Instructions for the iPhone version are below:
With the amp section open, touch the sproket on the upper right.
You should be in a "settings" type area with three tabs. Touch "Sections"
Select the section and switch it to automatic - it will now record until you stop recording by touching the stop icon.

If you haven't already done so, try this simple step first.
