1. Re: 1 second media pending, random occur
Bill Hunt Jan 1, 2011 9:16 AM (in response to staheph1)Welcome to the forum.
Media Pending means just that - the program is processing some aspect of the media in use. There could be several reasons for this. The program could be Indexing the material. This happens with MPEG material most often. This ARTICLE will give you a bit more background.
It could also be that some other program, like Windows Indexing is locking the material, and PrPro cannot access it at that moment. This ARTICLE will give you a bit of background on that.
There are probably a few other causes, and maybe others will chime in with some of those.
Good luck,
Hunt

2. Re: 1 second media pending, random occur
staheph1 Jan 2, 2011 5:43 AM (in response to Bill Hunt)Thank you for the very fast answer.
I indeed forgot to tell that I have an indexing issue. The biggest file, a 9.2GB mpg (converted from a sony .m2ts with CS5 Media Encoder), is being indexed everytime I export, or load the project.
So I took your advice and cleared all the media cache files. Infact I moved all the files to a backup to force PrPro to reindex the whole Project and deactivated the xmp injection before. I also deactivated windows indexing for the internal HDD that stores all the data.
After a PC reboot and full reindexing the "Media Pending" still occurs at the same place, just that it is now 2 seconds long.
I did get an error message during the project loading, saying (translated from german):Unknown Error during adapting of the following file: [the-big-mpg-mentioned-above].cfa
What else can I do? In the article you said you had problems with mpg and maybe want people to send them in for analysis?

Bill Hunt Jan 2, 2011 8:43 AM (in response to staheph1)Do you have the very latest update for CS5? That fixed some Indexing and Conforming issues.
Good luck,

The latest seems to be 5.0.3? I am at a school working station and do not have the admin rights to perform an update. Will check in later.

Todd_Kopriva Jan 2, 2011 9:20 AM (in response to staheph1)Here's a note from the release notes for the 5.0.3 update:
"Fixed issues regarding indexing of MPEG files, including unresponsive UI during indexing and some cases of unnecessary re-indexing of media shared across a network."
