Multi-camera editing - FREEZING & LAGGING

May 30, 2008 12:41 PM

I'm trying to edit with Multi-camera, but my image more often then not freeze on first frame and play only audio or or play with heavy lags and very jumpy.

It will only play in I play first source monitor then toggle to Multicam monitor while it plays, I will be able to play once after doing this then I have to redo the trick or else playback will stay frozen on first frame and will only play audio.

It reminds me of when I used to have memory problem and had a bad video card with little buffer memory...

I'm using CINEFORM AspectHD v5.0 build 114 (build 115 crashes so I reverted).
ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe
4 GB RAM
multiple raid setup (dedicated for scratch disks)
Nvidia Quadro FX 1500
Sound Blaster X-FI Xtreme Music
AMMD Athlon64 x2 +4600
Windows XP Pro

    There are newer Aspect HD builds that fixes many problems:

    What media are you using? perhaps dedicate your RAID to media...

    Reviving this old thread because of the stunning lack of bug reports on this (if the problem is related, and still hasn't been fixed as recently as CS6).

     

    When you've got your Multi-Camera Monitor visible, and you're fine-tuning your Multi-Camera sequence by moving the time indicator in that timeline, when you press play, the Multi-Camera Monitor freezes up and just plays the audio.  This is happening to me on a Core i7-3770K (Ivy Bridge) overclocked to 4 GHz, etc.  The simple solution, but a POOR one, is to active the Multi-Camera Monitor window first, and then press play.

     

    This is incredibly dumb.  It is a bona fide bug.  It is simply not the way that the Project Monitor behaves vis-a-vis the timeline.  Adobe hasn't fixed this for several versions by now.  On the other hand, I can't find any complaints about it.  Does no one care?  Or are those stealth moderators around here ("Community Professionals") quashing reports as usual with unrelated advice about upgrading systems?

    @hpmoon,

     

    If you haven't done it yet, please file a bug report here:

     

    Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form

     

    Todd Kopriva (an Adobe employee) has assured us that every one of those is reviewed and analyzed.  Then they are prioritized.  The most serious bugs that affect the most users are the ones that will get fixed first.

     

    Jeff

    Yes, of course.  My experience is that they ignore many such reports, but I've already filed one and might be pleasantly surprised.  Anyway, for the purposes of this thread, it will help if we all confirm this is a problem, documenting here whether Premiere behaves this way on all systems.
