Flickering footage in Premiere Pro CC 2014 but not in Premiere Pro CC 2013

Hi CWood and others on the thread,

We have a customer having this issue who is now on the upcoming version of Premiere Pro in our prerelease program. The flicker problem is no longer occurring for him and we cannot reproduce the problem either.

It sounds like we have a fix for the upcoming version. Just thought I'd let you know the positive results.

Thanks,
Kevin

Just wanted to chime in that I have the exact same problems on all our Mac Pro's.

I find I even get glitches rendering out of AE, when the files are brought into premiere pro.

100% related to CUDA drivers being screwed.

Never had this problem, it all started for us in late 2014, I believe we made the move to yosemite at the time. Or maybe it was CC2014.

Considering rolling back to CC2013, for my next project, as I get crashes all the time every day, and its just killer.

here's what worked for us:

Go to Sequence settings / Editing mode: set to custom (rather than AVC Intra..)

Video previews: set to Microsoft AVI (rather than I-Frame only mpeg..).  Quicktime also seemed to work.

I also cleaned the media cache data base (Edit / Prefs / Media)

If that fails, it may help to select field options on each clip / flicker removal.

Hope that helps

GPU Acceleration has always been the culprit, which seems, lets say, counter productive.  There's a feature that speeds up rendering, but makes it useless. I've noticed it most often with Red Giant Color Suite, but the 3 way Color Corrector has caused issues at times.

I too have a strange flashing when I render a video. I am not sure how hard it is to see here, but it seems like a criss-cross flashing on my video. Seriously frustrating, especially when I need to render this film for a short film competition that begins in three days. Can you please help us understand what's with the flickering please?

What's the status update on this guys... Seriously this is a huge issue and because i can't get my project backwards exported to older versions i'm stuck at this point. My suggestion would be to tell your dev teams to drop all new features until they fix this problem. I want to send adobe a bill for the time its taken me to spend jacking around with this issue.

I have found that I can successfully export my whole timeline as a .png sequence, export the audio separately, then put it all back together in After Effects and render a Quicktime without the flickering.  It's a ridiculous workaround and a huge pain in the neck, but hopefully it helps if you're in a jam with a client or a deadline.

I can't believe this thread has been going on for so long and there's no fix. I'm not here to unjustly whine...but seriously Adobe, when we hired a third person and upgraded to CC we find out that with the latest versions we can barely render client work. I have read SO many of these threads, it's seems platform independent, video card independent and so on...it seems the only consistency is that it's Adobe software.

So rather than go into a long list of what I have tried, my system specs, what the possible fixes I could try are (when none of them work - obviously why this thread still exists) and keeping fingers crossed after spending hours trying to beta test what it supposed to be working version - so we can render on deadline and NOT lose a client - how about a serious effort to fix this? I mean for real. It's great that Adobe responds with the intention of help, but there's a lot of people paying for flawed software and there seems to be no end to this.

i had same problem,   only solution i could find was reverting to older version of PP

Has a solution been found for this problem? I experience it only when I try to use the adjustment layer feature. If I apply a color correction to an adjustment layer, my footage flickers. Apply the same effect to the clip itself and no flicker. Obviously this isn't the end of the world for me, but it's really disappointing - I had high hopes for saving tons of time with  the adjustment layer feature.
