AE can use multiple cores, but you have to switch on this feature in the prefs.

Hi!
You were right. I converted the XDCAM footage to 8bit uncompressed, it takes 1.5 TB on the harddrive now, but everything works.
Thank you!

Hi Dennis!
… its 48 GB of RAM and RAID 0 … the system is not the problem. I already know that PR cannot handle XDCAM clips that are transferred with XDCAM Transfer. I stick with FCP.

OK, there’s a new bug. I have edited now about 40 minutes with a ProResLT multicam-clip without any problem. But suddenly I cannot playback the timeline any more. If I hit the play button, there pops up a window that says “Erforderliche Dateien werden gerendert” (in english: “Rendering necessary files”) …
but nothing happens.🙁

Thank you for the link. Thats really interesting! I didn’t know that PR has such a bad performance on mac. I’d like to know if the performance problems are only concerning PR or the whole CS5 suite. Fortunately there are other good editing applications.
My XDCAM Footage was transferred with “XDCAM Transfer” to the PC. If someone wants to know it I can try to use the native recorded format from the SxS cards for this task and tell you if that works better.

I just tried to convert the footage from XDCAM (35 MBit) to ProResLT (about 85 MBit). I can playback and edit the ProRes footage using 3 multicam streams even with my notebook.
It seems like Adobe PR simply does not support XDCAM footage very well.

If you have FC Studio 3 you can also use ProRes4444 (uncompressed) or ProResHQ.
I would never use GOP formats like H264 ore MPEG4 because they don’t run stable.

Hi!
The harddrives can not be the problem. OSX runs on a single drive, project and footage are on a RAID 0 (3 drives). Also it wouldn\’t work with FCP if the drives were too slow.
Until now I have not encountered any problems with the graphics card …
