    Video Freezes

    Posted by Trevor Ambrose on April 20, 2015 at 4:37 pm

    Hi Folks,

    Every once in a while my video freezes while I’m editing. I can still hear the audio. I can load up new clips and sequences. I can play and scrub and trim BUT I only hear audio. The video remains frozen? When I re-start the composer things go back to normal and I video is moving again.

    Any clues out there?

    Thanks!

    What codec of video are you cutting? What drive is it stored on? Connected how? Transcoded or accessed via AMA?
