I have had intermittent issues with Sony S-Log footage. some clips had trouble and some not

Hard to fix something that is not consistent.

Thanks, I was desperate when I found the answer on an Adobe blog and was sure someone else would need it.

Thanks,

This solved it for me: In Premiere preferences, go to Media Cache and check the “Clean Unused” button, then save the project and re-start Premiere.

Thanks,

I forgot to mention that after cleaning the media cache, it appears it is best to save your project and restart Premiere.
This gets rid of the delay. I have not tried the new version because I’m currently finishing a project in the old one.

Thanks,

Just found a possible solution.
1. Go to Premiere Pro or Edit/Preferences/media cache and clean unused.
this seemed to help a lot.

Thanks,

I am experiencing the same thing on my Imac, only when switching tools in the timeline.
My project is running on an external Thunderbolt ssd that is plenty fast, and my internal ssd has real world speed of 1400mbps, so that can’t be it. All my drives are formatted Mac Extended, Journaled.
I’m not having the problem in any other Premiere functions.
Can’t see where is the hangup here.
Welcome input from others who have this isue.

Thanks,
Kevin

HI Shane,
I have several things you could go shoot for me.
I’m working trying to finish my local doc about my neighborhood, Davis Shores.
It has been in “production” for 3 years!
No money, but the neighborhood organization says I can have some money to pay for hard drives and tapestock and stuff when the film is done… So I’m trying to finish.
It is becoming my Orson Welles project.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hey Steve,
Thanks for this suggestion. I forgot about that setting.
Even so, the limit of the size you can use with the Pan Zoom image width and height sliders seems to be about 50 million pixels on my machine (17 Inch laptop unibody Mac). That’s 10k by 5k or 8k by 6250k, etc. Still need more experimenting to discover the rules.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Shane,
Yes, it’s me. I was so happy to find a way NOT to have to reduce my stills in order to do moves on them. I need all that resolution to zoom way in! Now I can have my cake and move way in on it too.
Hope you are well. Now experimenting to see if Pan Zoom Pro cares whether this stills are TIFF or JPEG.
I hear final cut likes tiff, but Just tried Pan Zoom Pro with jpeg and tiff and it took either.
One note: I am using a file that is 12,000 x 9,000 pixels. I am only using it in Pan Zoom Pro with a 10,000 x 5,000 size. (Using the image width and image height sliders in Pan Zoom Pro to choose this size.) This seems to be about max before out of memory messages return. Maximium size the sliders will allow is 10k x 10k, but that size won’t render on my system.
It will take some experimenting to see what the limits really are, but at least you can use a huge file and get at least decent size just limiting size in the Pan Zoom Pro sliders. Just tried 8,000 x 6,000 which also rendered OK With same original that is 12k x 9k.
Like I said some experimentation will be needed.

Thanks,
Kevin

I’ve been trying to use Streamclip, but no matter what the source, all “convert to” menu options are greyed out. Thus no MPEG2 ability. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Kevin
