I purchased this progrom some time ago, and have tried to use it several times, being forced to go back to PD 12 every time. The problem is working with files in the timeline. For instance when I perform an edit on a file it takes forever for the timelined to reload so that I can work with it again. Sometimes I have to delete the file and reload it to be able to continue.
The files I use are .mpgs converted from wtvs from Windows Media Center, from which I'm removing commercials and lightly editing. Old, SD files, usually about 2800-3900 kbps.
My question-- Is there some setting in the program that I could change to alleviate this problem?
Attempts to reinstall and upgrade PD16, to latest version.
In Preferences, enable, Enable Hardware Encodind, depending on the version of the video drivers it may be better to disable this.
Enable, Enable OpenCL Technology
See if shadow files are enabled.
This is good for files in HD or higher.
But in this case you should wait for the conversion process to complete, to make the timeline light for editing.
