My Mac performs like a champ with the software I use. But its an early 2008 Mac Pro and Im not sure how the newer ones have changed. I am also to new to Premiere Pro to make any assumptions about which machine performs the best. I encourage you to do exhaustive research to find the best machine for the best price. I like not worrying about viruses but with care they can be avoided on the PC platform. A prominent PrP user posted this regarding getting the best bang for buck on the PC side. The way Apple is going these days, I would be a bit wary.

Sorry, I dont know how to help. My Mac had Prores already since it came with the installation of FCP. And I use the AJA Kona 3 hardware. Wish I could be of more help.

Yup, Like I said in my post to him earlier…zooming in does smooth out the scanning on the timeline display in the Record/Right monitor.

Paul the Prores clips playback great in PRP 5.5. The process I am referring to here is when scanning by dragging thr playback head in the Record window it seems to skip 10 or so frames which doesn’t happen when scanning the same clip in the Source window. I think its a moot point because I just discovered if I zoom in a bit on the timeline this issue clears up. Your info about Prore in PrP is incorrect. There are downloadable Prores playback only codecs for PCs. And of course being on a Mac Pro with FCP I have lots of Prores choices 🙂

I think you maybe on to something. Zoomed in on the timeline it scans smoothly. Where is this slider resolution control you mentioned?

In the source window I I can scan by dragging the little playhead control through through the clip and it plays very smoothly (all frames played). When I try the same process in the record window it jumps about 10 + or – frames as I drag. .

Try trashing the prefs for PrP. I had something happen similar to you and trashing cleared it right up. Worth a try.

I have explored the preference switch between Adobe and AJA with no affect. Actually I was using Prores as one example I experience this same ” skipping” playback issue in the Record Monitor with all clips/formats/codecs.

Robert, if you hit the Return key, it will render if it thinks it is necessary, then it will playback from the top of the sequence.
