If you have a lot of interlaced video you might want to get one of these.

[Chris Wright] “just copy and paste all your interlaced video into a new progressive sequence. it will deinterlace for you automatically.”
Why copy and past? You can just change the sequence setting to 30P or 60P.

Thanks for the response.
It would seem as though not many people use 3rd party hardware for true broadcast quality compliant monitoring and playback. I mainly use the Intensity Shuttle because I hate seeing interlaced video playing back on the computer screen.

Thanks for the info. With the AJA do you notice any real-time performance gains or losses with your software of choice? Why do you use it? Just curious. Premiere Pro always seems to playback better on 3rd party hardware than on the computer screen.

Thanks for the info. I agree drivers from Blackmagic Design can be buggy at times. Having said that I thought the Intensity Shuttle for $180.00 was a good deal. I bought it because Interlaced video looks so much better using 3rd party hardware. Especially when editing VHS tapes, HI-8 tapes or even Mini DV-25 tapes for clients. I use the Intensity Shuttle to playback in real-time to my old SD (CRT) monitor. It was worth every penny to me. Why did you get your 3rd party hardware? Just curious? Do you loose any real-time performance using 3rd party hardware with FCPX?

It is up to everyone to send a feature request for Adobe to scrap the Mercury Playback Engine and rewrite Premiere Pro CC from the ground up. There are so many bugs that have not been fixed in over two years and new ones being introduced in every new release.

I can edit native Red One R3D files on my mediocre system at 1/4 resolution. Having said that a GTX 1080 and 8 Core CPU would be great if you want to playback 4K at full resolution.

[Daniel Waldron] “I think Premiere Pro is a great editing program. I use Premiere and After Effects 2015.3 on a daily basis for numerous types of projects and rarely run into bugs now. Final Cut, and to a lesser extent Avid, has numerous bugs as well. I guess it just depends on which ones you are willing to put up with. I will admit Adobe’s new releases are always riddled with bugs, but if you wait a while before updating, it’s generally pretty smooth.”
All the bugs I posted have been there since 2014. I even sent Adobe my projects. They confirmed the bugs and told me it would be fixed in the next major release. Trust me there are more bugs then the ones I posted that still are not fixed. I wasted a lot of my time beta testing for Adobe. If they can’t fix it in over two years it is not going to get fixed. They need to scrap the Mercury Playback Engine and rewrite the code from scratch.

With CC I am always afraid to upgrade knowing there is a good chance I will find new bugs. I never felt that way about the CS versions. Premiere Pro needs more Beta testing than Illustrator or Lightroom because of all the 3rd party broadcast hardware available for it. Although Avid is not cheap people claim it is reliable. I guess I will have to find out for myself. I have to admit Premiere is to the point where I must realize things are going to get worse and worse. I think Adobe wasted to much time and money on mobile apps.

I know Premiere 2017 is filled with bugs. That kind of tie in with my post because I would hate to see Adobe spend time writing code for the Touch Bar when there are bigger fish to fry. I could see the Surface Dial being of some use for video editors. The Surface Dial can work on all Windows 10 devices. I could see myself using Premiere on a 24″ touch screen. Having said that I do agree their are a lot of bugs that have been in Premiere Pro CC for several years. I have stated Premiere needs a complete rewrite of the code. Below are some samples of the bugs that have been there for several years and seem to get worse. They were not in CS 5.5. I didn’t really want to discuss the bugs but I do agree Premiere Pro CC is much worse that Premiere Pro CS ever was. We pay more with CC and get a worse product. The bugs below are still there. There are more bugs than what I posted but these four are the worst and should have been spotted by the Adobe Staff.
