Holy Creative Cow, batman, this actually worked.
No more lag time when marking Ins and Outs on the source side and the project seems to load 300 times faster. What’s up with that??!!!??! -
Floppy Drive? I haven’t had one of those in years. But the drivers are on the DVDRom that came with the Motherboard.
I’ll limp though this and save the re-installs for a later date. Might even just buckle under and get Vista. I guess I never had true SATA with my old motherboard either – though it seemed like they were going fast enough.
Thanks for your help.

Nothing rendered on the timeline.
It might be worthy to note (ha! I actually only just considered this) that I replaced the motherboard on this system last week – from an old buggy Biostar to a newer Asus – and I might have the SATA drives set up as IDE drives (I tried setting the SATA to ACHI, or whatever – but then the BIOS didn’t find my c: drive at all.)
But maybe just the changed system is messing up the program. I should try another project and see if I get the same problems. Might I have to re-install CS4 to get it to fully recognize the new hardware?

Import the project into a New Project? Interesting – I might have to try that – though I bet it will have to re-index my 500+GB of HDV files…

No problem – I did delete the render files and there was little improvement. I chose to delete the media cache database and there seems to be much more improvement. That of course deleted only the database files not related to this project, so I may go back in and manually deleted ALL the files and then let the project rebuild itself overnight. Kind of extreme, I know, but it might be worth it. In the meantime I’ve cut the minute wait down to 10 seconds or so. Almost tolerable.
I’d still love to know what PPro is doing when I mark an In …

Dose the video and Audio play in the source monitor, but not in the timeline? – this happened to me too and so I just matched framed and replace a few of the clips and suddenly the audio returned to them all.

Cleaning the Media Cache Database Now – I have a feeling I’m going to regret that when I open up another project….but I gotta try it. This project was started last October in CS3 and has suffered numerous crashes and re-installs of both windows and CS4.

Slight improvement – thanks…still have to wait – but not quite a long

Oh how I wish I could. And normally – yes – that is what i do (though I shouldn’t have to.) But this was 10 days of behind the scenes video to be used in 4 edits – and no way to know which BTS went with which edit. As I get near the end I will delete the unused footage….but I’ve a ways to go for that.

I’ve deleted the Render files – now the program is re-indexing files….63 to go it says. I’ve noticed that the HDV files randomly get re-indexed from time to time. Very frustrating.
