Program Monitor Freezes
Cine Real Mar 29, 2011 12:49 PMEssentially, while editing SD footage, on the Premiere Pro CS5 timeline, in a SD 720 x 480 resolution project, the Program Monitor image freezes.
It does not seem to matter what I am doing such a playback, adding a transition, color correction, shortening the length of a clip, or cropping an image. It makes no difference. The Program Monitor just freezes.This happens twice in every hour or so of editing. There does not seem to be a timing variable to this problem, or it is not consistent.
The timeline is still useable and the audio continues playing, the mouse moves, I can access clips on the Source Monitor and play them. Nothing else changes. I can change the playback resolution or make any other monitor changes, although they do not show up since the image at the time of the freeze stays in the monitor. Refreshing does not work. Restarting the program does not work. All changes since the last freeze can be saved since the Save function still works. I just cannot edit and the only way that I can proceed is to reboot the computer.
Adobe Service has escalated this case #182091487, back and forth for almost two months. This is putting a crimp in my production schedule.
This happens sporadically, although on one occasion, I was actually able to demostrate the freeze to Adobe Service while they were on line.
