I’m going to try the proxy files and see if that can do it. I got NV because of a project that had shots that were just too dark. Lightening them really made the noise pop out so NV worked very well with that. Also I think NV will be good in general to make shots a little cleaner. I did notice the lagging/freezing when I was first using NV but I’m not using it at all with this project. In fact right now I haven’t added any effects yet in the project i.e. pan/crop, brightness/contrast, color correction etc. but it was really just not moving at all. One thing I am using for it is a WAV audio file (it’s a music video). Could that be slowing things down?
