Hi David- Thanks for your reply. I was going to convert all the footage to ProRes and edit in FCP7 but it was taking so long and I read that Premiere is fine with editing H264 natively so I decided to go with Premiere. I kept the footage 4K in a 1920X1080 timeline incase I want to zoom in on any of the footage. I won’t lose resolution. I’m using the portable RAID disk that Lacie makes so there are only 2 disks. I ran the AJA system test (inputing video frame size 3840X2160, and 1 GB file size) and the results were Write: 218.5MB/s and Read 202.2 MB/s. What do you think? Too slow? I’ll also do as you suggested and edit in a 4K timeline since I’m not zooming in on too many shots. I really appreciate your help. Thanks so much!

Hi David- I am having very choppy playback too which makes it very hard to edit. All of my equipment is brand new this year. I have a MacBook Pro Mid 2015, 2.5GHz Intel Core i7 Processor, 16GB Memory, AMD Radeon Graphics card, and a Lacie RAID 0 Thunderbolt drive. Mac OS X Yosemite and Premiere CC 2014. My footage was shot H.264 4K natively. I am editing in a 1920X1080 h264 timeline because some other footage is that and that is how I’m going to deliver. Having the latest equipment, why would it not be playing back smoothly? Please help. As a recent convert from FCP7, I can say that I seem to be having nothing but problems with Premiere. I really want to like it though!
Thanks!

When i double click on the clip it is says -1 in the source window. That’s correct right?

Hey! I thought you’re supposed to help people! 🙂 I don’t know where in compressor to choose vbr or cbr when I’m making a h264 qt. I don’t see it anywhere.

One more question…. I think.
How do I set constant bit rate for an h.264 Quicktime?

There are 8 bits in a byte so 50 mbps/8=6.25MBx 30 sec=187.5 MB file. So, that wouldn’t work. 100MB file/6.25MB=16 sec. So, that wouldn’t work either. Thanks for helping with the math, Dave. And thanks for pointing out the different between bits and bytes Alan. Any thoughts on the audio? You can’t have something be MP3 and PCM or AAC and PCM, right?

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your reply. I ended up setting a poster frame in QuickTime and I think that worked because I haven’t heard back from them!
