I'll do some test recordings tomorrow. I changed the settings on the camera and the difference in quality is barely noticeable. I'll record a longer test tomorrow in perfect settings and tell you how the editor is behaving based on that.
I don't know your name. I want to really say thank you for being so helpful and patient!

I think you're right. I might be confusing FPS with Mbps. But I think my camera only gives me strict options to work with ( see pictures of the options on my camcorder.I did a quick test of 35 vs 24 mbps, and the quality difference is a lot (I uploaded the two samples on your onedrive). The image is a lot less crisp. When I did the change from 24 to 35, my viewers noticed right away how much more crisp the video is. And it scares me that I'd need a 7k$ computer to edit this kind of quality lol. I might just have to suck it up for now and keep producing high quality vids on lag-mode. I know that some of the quality is lost when I speed up, but not all the clips are done that way, so overall I'd be downgrading the whole video for a few scenes that are sped up if I go with 24mbps (since anything other than 35mbps is reduced to 30fps)...am I making sense? lol

OH NO! Such a bummer that the page refreshed on its own X_X
I used to edit at 30fps, but I've upped my quality of video production since my channel got a lot bigger. If I want to continue editing at 60fps, what hardware do I need to upgrade on my computer? By now, you know I have a youtube channel lol, and * here it is *. You've been such an awesome support!!
I'm going to use all the other strategies you suggested until then so that the editor doesn't feel overwhelmed (pre-flipping, prespeeding some parts). <3

You're the best! It's uploading now =D

Hi!!
I did a mini project of less than 2 minutes, and without ANY effects whatsoever (no flip, no speed, no adjustment of colors), the timeline was ok. No skipping occured.
I took the same project, and did ONLY flip and speed ups (no color adjustments), and the timeline did skip, as well as the voice/video lag started again.
I can't seem up upload my packed files to dropbox because it's about 3GB and my limit is 2GB. Any suggestions where else would be possible? ^_^

You're awesome!!
Thank you for guiding me through this!! I will give these a try sometime tomorrow and report back =D

My preview quality is already set to High or Normal most times 
I can't turn off 2x speed because I can't tell which clips need x2 or x8 until during the editing process. How is PD so weak that is can't handle its own features? Would there be better stronger editors out there for my needs? I need something that will be able to handle my work. I edit 2-3 videos a week, and can't work with a program that is having a hard time doing simple work. I don't even add effects or graphics lol.
^_^
I can work with pre-flipping my videos, but I can't guess which speed the other clips have to be at ahead of time unfortunately.

Hey! =D
So I tried editing with NO color adjustments and I kept my files upside down just to test the theory of perhaps my activities are too heavy for the editor, but the results were the same. The only effect that was applied to a couple of the clips was a X2 speed. This is a relatively SMALL project I tested on, and the editor is still behaving the same way. You can see the timeline skip by itself to the end again even though nearly nothing was done to the files to make them too burdensome. I never had this issue with PD12 or PD10, I don't know why it's there in PD13.
Video of the exact same issue without flipping or modifying esthetics: https://www.dropbox.com/s/159v61dc83x00e2/ScreenCapture_2015-8-19%2010.5.34.wmv?dl=0
(Ignore the random audio, I did random voice trims just to mimic the amount of cuts I normally do)
What other guesses might you have for this behavior? ^_^
(Although I will definitely be using the flipping video method you described for future projects!!)

omg...I DID NOT think of that as an issue! I will give it a try first thing tomorrow morning.
You're awesome. I'll report back sometime late morning =D
Also, if you have suggestions to pre-rotate videos, I'd be happy to hear them since I'll probably have to rotate them, encode as one big file, then re-edit, which will take a while my raw files are generally an hours-worth of footage. If possible, I want to keep them as individual clips to make editing scenes easier.

Hi All!
I was suggestedto start a new thread because my issue seems to be unique. The editor has been giving me issues since I downloaded it early July. It's extremely choppy and the timeline LINE doesn't go through the video normally. It just skips by itself to the END of the video. When I preview (whether it be in low or HD mode), the video and audio don't sync at all. HOWEVER, when I export the project, everything is as it should be, but editing is a nightmare since I have to second guess EVERYTHING all the time. The choppy and laggy-ness of the experience is quite frustrating. (Please see videoclip of the exact problem I'm talking about

I am including 1 of my raw files; it is recorded at 60p. Feel free to test it out and let me know. You are now my heroes! Save me lol.

I've already uninstalled and reinstalled the program 3 times, I am running shadow files, NOTHING on my computer is lagging at all. Only the editor timeline and the trim timeline as well.
Almost all my videos are rotated 180 since I record upsidedown (crafting), and I sometimes change exposure and brightness settings. Of course, lots of trims to cut out unnecessary scenes.
MUCH APPRECIATED!!!

Hi Kyle and optodata,
I even reduced it to LOW quality and the lag on the editor is driving me insane.
I took a screen capture of the issue I am facing. You'll see the timeline LINE move all the way to the end, and the audio/video just don't play properly at all together. I'm totally frustrated and you guys are my only hope now
I updated my driver this morning, but nothing changed at all.
Here's the issue: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6f2yofs8po3ujlx/ScreenCapture_2015-8-15%2020.16.21.wmv?dl=0
I already uninstalled and reinstalled the program 3 times with no luck whatsoever
Fingers crossed!

Hey! I'm having similar issues and my files are running on Shadow form...I'd love to have an answer as to why I can't preview my edited clips. The timeline LINE skips to the end by itself, and the video/audio is choppy. It's frustrating. I am also posting my DxDiag. Please help!My computer is experiencing NO lag whatsoever, it's only the editor.
I'm totally open to buying new hardware, just let me know what would make the most sense
