I have the latest version of Premiere, running on a RAID with about 2.5 TB worth of space. Mac OS 10.9. 32GB of RAM.
Seemingly overnight, I have a small hiccup when telling things to play or rewind in the Timeline window. I'll hit spacebar, L or J and it will hold for about a second and then pick up a second forward in the timeline. Same with pausing. It will hold for a second before finally pausing playback. The actual playback of the videos is clean, there's no lag or glitchingas the playhead moves through the middle of a clip. It's only when STARTING or STOPPING.
I've emptied my cache several times, checked my RAM, restarted the computer. Tried in multiple projects with everything from ARRI ProRes to 5D H.264s.
I thought for a second it was my wireless keyboard but I've been using it for a couple weeks now and haven't experienced issues in other programs. And the issue still occurs when I hit the play button in the Source of Program panels.
What could the problem be? Thanks for any and all help.
I checked to see if this slow start happened in older versions of Premiere Pro CC. It doesn't, only the 2014 release.
