.mov Slow Conform
My friend capured DV onto a firewire HD using FCP.
Now I’m trying to edit it on PPro1.5. I am using MacDrive to see the drive, and importing video into PPro directly without transfering to internal HD.1. When importing, conform takes a long time. Maybe 1/2 hour for 1 hour of footage. Is this normal? I found Mike’s post below, and not sure if he was suggesting to reinstall Pro after QT to solve the problem.

The only problem I have noticed with .mov files is than conforming audio takes a long time. If the QT player was installed after Pro’s installation, I would try reinstalling Pro.

Don,
I had a similar project just last week but did not suffer the same slow performance you describe. I was working with a smaller project about 24 minutes long.
Using MacDrive, left the media on the FW drive and imported to PPro. Took only about 12 minutes to conform the audio. The PPro project and it’s scratch drives were on an internal HDD.

In my experience, yes. It almost plays at full frame rate but not quite. Rendering the timeline was required. That took just about 30 minutes – just slightly longer than real-time. Then it played perfectly.

Thanks Dave,
I tried QTpro to convert, but PPro didn’t read it properly.
Ulead Media Studio was able to export to .avi, but it was 1/3 speed.
I think I may have to recapture my footage using PPro.
Thanks,
Don
