As I said in my first response, PD13 is extremely slow to generate shadow files. PD's 15 & 16 are very much better in terms of speed.
However, there is an alternative to shadow files that you may wish to explore. It sounds complicated, but it isn't. Have a look here:

This alternative was an absolute lifesaver. By encoding my files to a lower res I'm able to work on multiple files without a glitch.
Thank you so much.

To everyone that also gave me suggestions and alternatives, thank you as well.
Quote How much free space is there on your SSD (I'm assuming that it's your C: drive)?


I have an additional SSD drive I bought for extra space. My SSD is 250 GB

Hi

This is a common problem with HD video. You can try using shadow files, although in PD 13 they are quite slow to generate, but they will help a lot. You can also use a lower preview resolution, and if the trouble still persists you can edit in Non-real Time. However, be aware when using NRT the audio is muted to make things easier on the hardware.

Dont worry too much about it, you are not alone HD work is very power hungry.

Good luck with it




Do shadow files often take a long time to generate? Its been hours and yet it's still not complete. All the files I'm working on are on an SSD if that is helpful at all.

File size 6-10 GB

Thank you in advance.

Thank you. Will try your recommendations.
I'm using PD13 and I've had this issue a few times before. While editing footage, trimming, transitions, etc.. nothing too out of the ordinary, once I press play, the cursor moves I can hear the sound but the footage lags a few seconds till it catches up. This continues until the cursor jumps to the end of the footage. This is making editing on PD 13 extremely frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Footages I usually edit are 1080p 60/30 FPS from OBS studios.
