Thanks…I thought I tried some other modifiers, but I guess I missed that one (for Mac, it’s actually working as Shift+Command+drag).
I guess somebody better tell Adobe that their shortcut was changed so they can update their “help” site. -

Does anyone have tips on keeping a clean house with Premiere cache files? Is it worth dumping it every now and then and letting the files rebuild?

Yes, I have nearly 27TB of assets connected to this project. I’ve cleaned it up as much as possible. And like I said, it runs fine until I try using the titler.
Next large project, I’m giving the new Resolve a try. -

June 4, 2017 at 6:44 pm in reply to: Premiere terribly sluggish after manipulating titlesI think that creating graphics outside of premiere would be just as labor-intensive as working with the clunkiness of Premiere’s titler.
I did some managing of the project, but it’s still a large project. I’ve got nearly 27TB of assets (mostly 4k ProRes shot on Black Magic Cinema Camera [older model, shot in 2014]).
I believe that Premiere has since improved this issue, but this project was begun several years ago, when Premiere re-imported corresponding clips when you imported a sequence from a different project file. So I have several duplicate clips in my project bin, and there’s no way for me to clean that up because some of them are being used in my timeline. Do you know if that would slow down performance?
Thanks for the thoughts. -
Thanks to all for the input.
Here’s my specific situation: working on a 4K doc shot on BlackMagic so all A Cam media is in ProRes. We have a couple B Cams – a DJI Inspire (giving me an AVC encode) and a Lumix GH4 (giving me h.264). Would you all expect those B Cam clips to perform at the same speed and agility as the ProRes? Would you transcode the B Cam clips to ProRes for better performance? Are my expectations too high for Premiere to handle these B Cam clips as well as ProRes?

No, it’s like saying I want to discuss how your engine does comparing 2 different roads. And with your input, I can assume that my engine will have similar performance differences given similar road differences. Looking for relative information here, make sense?
My media is on a RAID 5, 8 disks.

In this case, media lives on a Thunderbolt 2 RAID.
I’m most interested in hearing others’ experience when comparing the performance of ProRes vs. camera-native codecs, regardless of system specs.

I’m using the mouse to scrub, and yes using j,k,l for playback and jogging.
No other hardware during playback…just using dual D700’s in my machine. I’m using a 4k monitor (via HDMI), but performance is the same whether or not I’m sending to that monitor.
I’ve got playback and paused res setting to Full.

Yay! Thanks again Walter.
