Laggy in Premiere, laggy final movie, laggy something else?
My guess is that the final output, h.264 is 'laggy'. If so, that's probably because something in your system isn't powerful enough to stream an HD quicktime. If your processor isn't up to it, it can't decompress and play the stream smoothly. If the file is big enough, maybe your hard drive isn't up to streaming that much data (you might need a RAID). If you don't have enough RAM, it could be problematic too. So, if it's the final output, what's the file size, is it best quality compression, or lower? What are your system specs? Have you tried playing it with no other software running?
If it's not that, ignore that prior paragraph and describe more, please.
thank you.
(or maybe someone else understands better, and my communication gap is what's lacking-sorry)
Yes, I'm just talking about the finished video render, the actual size of this clip I'm trying to fix is 1.26 mb.
yes I've tried it without other software and it plays exactly the same.
as for file size, the encoder thing was set at between 6mb and 10mb, I haven't changed them, maybe I should?
I've got loads of free space on my lap top, it's a 32 bit toshiba satellite, running vista.
And the best way I can describe the lag is...it seems to be playing right, as far as the speed of the thing goes, but, the pictures are moving, like you can see every frame, if that makes sense. the whole video looks unsmooth, especially on pans and character movement.
everytime I've tried this it's been on 100 percent quality.
thanks for trying to help, hope this helps you with an answer for my problem.
Thanks in advance.
Jon.
