  Playback and Nesting

  Posted by Mark Dagostino on May 24, 2013 at 6:16 pm

  Just curious, does nesting create less playback stress on the video card since multiple tracks are now nested into one?

  No, that would create more. Instead of just playing a few tracks on your main timeline it now has to play many at the same time. However if you export your nested tracks (presuming your done with them) as a video file and replace your nested tracks with the video then it would produce less stress.

  Thanks David. I tried nesting because I was having playback problems with my timeline that had up to 5 video tracks. Even after rendering it kept choking, ( before and after my nesting experiment). I turned off the CUDA acceleration so am using Mercury playback software only and that seems to help. My setup = MacPro,2 x 2.66 Ghz Quad Core Intel Xeon, 20GB 1066 Mhz DDR3,NVIDIA Quadro FX 4800. Any thoughts on how I can use CUDA and get smooth playback?
