  • JerkyVideo on timeline on CS4 & Audio was ok

    Posted by Pushpanatha De silva on February 14, 2010 at 1:36 pm

    Hi

    I am using Sony XDCAM EX1 for video recording on SXS media card. Recorded materialon SXS media card has played ok on TV including audio Not jerky at all. But when I use CS4, draging from sequence window to Time-line in CS4 and when play on time line, on the monitor, I could see jerky video for few seconds and frozen video all the way thru without affecting the audio. Audio was played well without any problem. I have selected the standards as PAL, HD/HQ 1080/25p in both Sony XD CAM EX1 and in CS4 project settings. I would really appreciate if anyone there could really help me on this. Your help and advice is much appreciated.

    I’ve had this happen too with my HD footage, the only thing that worked was to set the the preview quality to “Draft Quality” instead of “Highest Quality”.

    Even at Draft Quality it’s still nice and clear since it’s HD footage.

    Hope this helps.

    Hmmm?

    What type of file is it? If it’s an uncommpressed HD file like an .avi that’s most likely the problem. HD files in most cases should usually be an Mpeg 2.

    Another thing that sometimes works is to make a small adjustment to the clip like anti flicker (right click on the clip and select field optionsm then anti flicker). Then you will have to render the clip. After it has rendered see if it plays smoothly.

    If that works, you can make any change you want that would make you render the clip (Doesn’t have to be anti flicker). Rendering seems to do something to make the clip play smoother.

    Let me know.
