edit Canon 5D footage natively in PP CS6 on Macbook Pro?
-
And here is mine..
That is crazy. It is definitely the same file.

Well I can answer this one.
When I display it with the newest QT (Lion) on my Mac Pro I get the same info as you.
When I display it with QT 7 on my PC I get the info I shared with you.
Another of many reasons why I hate Quicktime. 😀

Ah shoot, I thought I had figured it out!
So it is not the file formatting then…
Weird that it would display different on different systemsTom, thanks for all your help. At least we are figuring out what it is NOT. 🙂

Where do you keep your media cache files? They should be on your disk array for fast access just like the media files. Thats how a company that specializes in building and optimizing edit systems did with my PC.

Really? I keep the cache on the local drive and scratch on the raid.
OK Ill try that. Signing off for today, will report back tomorrow -
Good luck. Lets hope that fixes the mystery.

I downloaded the clip from the Dropbox link and loaded it on my PC running Windows 7 and Premiere Pro CS6 from the local drive and was able to play the clip with no problem (half resolution). My computer isn’t super powerful (i7 2.67ghz and 12 gigs of RAM) and it’s not having any trouble with it.
Must be a software issue with the graphics driver or something similar?

Danielle, I played it on my MacBook and it played just fine. No problems whatsoever. Straight from the Crucial M4 SSD that’s the primary internal drive.

Hi Tom,
Sorry I had to crunch to get that project ready and then a sudden business trip.
In any case I have tested with the cache folder on the raid as well. No difference, read below:
@ Dennis and Gary: Did you let it play a few times, backwards, double speed and all that?
This is what happened just now with a ‘fresh;’ machine and clean & moved cache:I play the file in the source monitor, it plays fine for 4 times, although it does have artifacts (it looks like Im viewing it at the 1/2 resolution that I am using whereas other clips look pristine even at 1/2 resolution). Also when it reaches the end, I cannot press play again I need to let it go to the beginning and wait a second for the frame that is displayed to catch up. When it does, it plays fine again.
Not wanting to play it another 4 times I decide to test it:
So I go backwards, not problem, I go backwards double speed and it freezes. After this first freeze, it is having the old problems again, can play it for 30sec or so at a time before it freezes. ppfffft…Anyway the project is done, but it still is a mystery, what if this happens again and this time with clips that I actually really need to use?

At this point the best thing I can do is to refer you to the Master Computer Technician that I trust my Z820 with. His name is Eric Bowen. He is a big participant in this Adobe forum…

And he builds computers specifically for use with Adobe CS software.
He configured my PC in a manner to optimize its performance with PrP and AE.

If anyone can solve your dilemma, Im sure he can. Good luck!
