GoPro Hero 6 Playback Choppy in Premiere Pro

Hey guys,

I have about an hour worth of footage from Maui with a new Hero 6 and I noticed the playback is really choppy in Premiere Pro. My computer is no slouch either (see here for specs: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/bcnnTW ). Footage was shot in 4K 60 FPS. I am playing the video back at 1/8 resolution in Premiere. It will play smooth for a little bit and then have periods where it is a bit choppy.

I know the Hero 6 uses the new HVEC codec and I have heard that a lot of machines struggle playing back due to the high compression of HVEC.

Looking for any suggestions on how I can fix this choppy playback issue.

Thanks!

Thanks fellas. Found a great YouTube video showing how to use the Ingest settings to convert to GoPro Cineform proxies using Adobe Media Encoder. Looks very easy. Thanks guys.

What was the video you found? I've been looking for a way to fix these laggy choppy videos, I have so much footage from California and I can't let it be a waste...

I recommend Cineform proxies for that media.
