Very Strange 2.0 Issue
Hello,
Let’s see if anyone has run into this before. I’m running a Intel Core 2 CPU with 2.40GHz and 3.25 GB of RAM. I have an Quadra FX1500 video card with all of the drivers updated.
I am working on a project on an external seagate firewire drive (it’s a project I have been bringing home from work). Now, when I play the timeline, at first I have no issues. But eventually, the sections of the timeline that are un-altered AVIs (that do not require rendering) refuse to play back video. The audio continues, but the video freezes. Oddly enough, sections of the video that are rendered (transitions, color corrected sections, pan & scan photos) play back perfectly.
For instance, if I play the timeline in a section of pan and scans, the video play smoothly until it gets to an unaltered, native AVI, then the video freezes, and the audio continues. I have to restart Premiere to fix the problem. What is going on here? Obviously my system is plenty fast enough for DV editing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Aaron, I’ve had the same thing happen… I’m racking my brain trying to think of what caused it. The program isn’t generating a PEK file while you’re trying to play it back is it?

I too found this issue with the most updated drivers. I am pushing one of my workstations to its absolute last use of life and found the graphics card needed to use an older driver for CS4 to consistently show the images. Once I got the right driver it hasn’t dropped once.

No, it is not trying to create a PEK file. It is a very strange issue. Annoying to say the least. I made sure to buy a high-end video card fully supported by Adobe. I don’t get this. Thanks for responding though.

PPro 2 had major problems with external drives – use internal ( or esata ) drives only.

I already tried a test project on my primary internal SATA drive. No luck. Same problem.
