One feedback I received said that any source file above about 50GB will begin to give Premiere trouble.ĭoes Premiere have trouble ingesting / editing very long footage?įor example, if I hypothetically record 5 hours of total footage and then want to edit it down to a smaller final video, will Premiere performance decrease / have trouble remaining smooth during editing because of the very long initial timeline length?

I’ve gotten feedback that very large files (for example, a 3TB file containing two hours of uncompressed 1080p 60FPS) make Premiere choke and have difficulty with playback and smooth editing. I’m curious which general category of source material would behave better in Premiere.ĭoes Premiere have trouble ingesting / editing very large files?
Whereas Lagarith, for example, is ‘lossless’, but applies compression, producing much smaller files. This applies no compression algorithms but produces enormous file sizes. But as a general guideline, I’m curious which would make for smoother playback / hitch-less editing.įor example, one of my recording options is Uncompressed RGB True Quality. I understand this may not be a cut-dry answer since hardware configuration will affect it. Is it better to edit in Premiere with an Uncompressed file, or a Lossless Codec? :p Color fidelity and image sharpness, especially during high-motion periods, are particular concerns for me.Įxamples of problem codecs I’ve read about are x264 (many, many issues) and Lagarith Lossless (choppy/laggy playback). Which is horribly useless and subjective, I know, but maybe you still get what I’m saying. However, my true concern is image fidelity/quality, so I’m open to ‘lossy’ options as long as they don’t, like, ‘look’ lossy. I’m looking for options that are as lossless as possible (preferably true lossless) because I will be doing a lot of tinkering and editing with the material and would like to keep the highest quality possible during the editing period. Can anyone recommend “safe” codecs that PP will handle smoothly during extensive editing projects? I’ve read a lot of grief about people trying to import this-or-that file/encode type into PP only to have blackscreens, desync’d audio, ultra-choppy playback, etc. What Lossless/high-fidelity codecs are recommended for working with PP?
So, I have done a lot of Google’ing and ended up with a lot of conflicting / confusing information about what does and does not work in PP. And to do that I’m trying to sort out what my best creative workflow should be, and work backward from there to the correct storage and bandwidth requirements. To that end, I’m trying to learn as much about Premiere editing before building as possible, to reduce HW regrets later (under or overpowering). My last major stumbling point is sorting out what my storage structure should be.
#Eyeframe converter safe Pc
Hi guys! I am currently building myself a new PC (been saving up forever) so I can finally get into editing in a serious way after years of being held back by a low-performance system.
