Premiere Pro CS6-very sluggish
Posted by Phil Mastman on February 10, 2013 at 3:36 amPremiere Pro’s interface is suddenly acting very sluggish on my 12-core 64GB Mac Pro. Adding a new bin will cause the spinning beachball for over 30 seconds. Importing a single clip or moving one from one bin to another takes forever. Same for duplicating a sequence. I’ve tried trashing prefs. No change. Any ideas?
Thanks,
–Phil

February 10, 2013 at 3:08 pmHave you tried the standard approach for resolving quirks in PrP?
1. Trash Prefs.
2. Repair Permissions.
3. Delete Media Cache.
4. Open new sequence and copy/paste old one into it.Try each step and test system before moving to the next. Good luck!

February 10, 2013 at 7:58 pmProblem solved. Turns out that Pr does not like having several large JPEG sequences in a bin. I removed the sequences (about 7000 individual JPEG frames), and now Pr is zipping along as normal. Better to convert those frame sequences to a movie before bringing them into Premiere.

How big was the frame size for the JPEGs? You can resize them before bringing into Premiere Pro.Kevin Monahan

February 12, 2013 at 4:13 amKevin, the jpegs were 1920×1080. Not huge. Just too many of them for Pr to handle.
