Howdy,
When I timeline with just HD 1080 clips I have no issue when applying a overlap transition beween two clips. However, when connecting 2 --4K clips, there is a problem. The scenes review fine without the transition, but after applying the overlap each scene plays jerky etc. and audio all mixed up. They produce ok, but when reviewing in edit that problem happens.
What gives?

This is why the FAQs exist.

Hi,

With little information to go on, I think optodata just pointed to the FAQ as a starting point to see if anything there might help out.

If you give members more detailed info, particularly of your system specs, source material, any applied effects etc. then the more folk can help you out.

A jump from 1080 to 4k on a lower spec system will indeed strain the preview, depending on settings used, shadow files etc. etc. particularly around transitions, depending on the chosen style.

Saves time if you can give more detail, otherwise folk are left with guessing, which might be right - or way off the mark!

Thank you for your feedback. That was my suspicion and that confirmation indeed helps.
My system is rather good but apparently not good enuff. At least now I know that if I install some new hardware etc, that the issue will not be so disruptive, . Hmm, is 4k reallty worth it.. I think it is and I just need to get more horsepower under the hood.
I am an old timer and love to tell stories via videos. Just a bit slow on the tech stuff.
Thanks for the info. I truly appreciate it!
Chjeers,
