  Premiere Reacting SLoooooowwww

  Hi there,

  Does any of you guys have issews with premiere being really slow when it comes to shuttle and regular playback? It’s seriously driving me MAD because i’ve got a tight deadline and for every time i’m playing something in my timeline the entire project stops for 3-4 seconds. This is sort of my last effort in trying to find out what the problem is. At the same time i’m moving the entire project to fcp since that never let me down, especially not in this way.

  Specs:
  8-core Mac pro nehalem, HD4?50 512, 16g ram, 2 tb disks striped as “work”-disks. Should do the trick when working in SD 😀

  Anyone have a clue? Oh, this occurs on different sets as well so anyone please?

  I’ve also noticed that, despite the fact that the Mercury Playback Engine will play back large format files without rendering or dropping frames, it does take a second or two for Premiere to actually want to play back.

  Also, coming from Final Cut, it’s really bugging me how slow the interaction with clips in the timeline is with Premiere. In Final cut, you can move a clip around, and trim or whatever literally as fast as you can move your mouse. In Premiere, there is a delay between your hand and when the clip responds to your edits, so it feels like your editing in mud or something.
