  HD editing with Black Magic Intensity Pro?

  Posted by Maddogmike on December 4, 2007 at 4:58 am

  Is it possible to edit HD footage in Premiere CS3 and see the footage playback in real time on an external monitor?

  We just upgraded our Windows XP system. It now has an Intel Core 2 Dual 3ghz processor and 2gig of RAM. The Black Magic Intensity Pro card allows us to output video our HD monitor.

  For Black Magic standard definition projects, this works fine. For our HD projects, we can only get the video to play for about 1 second before it hangs, even after we render the files on the Premiere timeline.

  Any ideas?

  Hi Mike,

  Is it possibly a disk speed issue? What format is you HD timeline and what kind of drives are you playing them back from? Note that 8-bit Uncompressed HD requires about 120 Mb/sec from your drive.
