New system with Premiere & Decklink HD very slow to load projects and edit
I have a Premiere question…..we just did our first capture from DigiBeta. About a 65 minute clip. It takes five minutes to load the clip onto the timeline, and when we do a cut, it wants to do another 5 minutes of something/loading. What could we have done wrong with our batch settings so that this happens. We haven’t used Premiere before, only Speed Razor with Digisuite.
I will confess that our disk array is not here yet, but we have a pretty fast 300gig SATA drive…although only two of them and they are not striped.

When you first load a clip Premiere Pro will create preview files associated with the captured material. Is there a progress bar in the lower right hand corner when this is happening? If this is the case wait for it to finish and then try it.

Does it do this every time a do a cut or dissolve? I have to wait a minute everytime I do cut?

When you first import or capture a clip, it will conform the audio of the clip. Depending on the speed of your system it will take more or less time, after it has conformed it once, it won’t need to do it again. How much Ram are you using? Is the 300 gb Sata drive running your OS also? Does your system meet BlackMagics minimum specs? Try using their Hard drive speed test program to see what it says about the number of Frames per Second you can expect on your system. If you open up your task manager, are your Cpu’s doing anything while you have to wait? The answers to these questions will allow people to help you better. I’m guessing the problem lies in the system, since a lot of people use those cards with premiere.
