Possible bug with Quicktime proxies & Getty Stock footage

Having issues with Quicktime proxies suddenly slowing down my project - choppy playback, slow response, media not linking immediately etc.

 

In case anyone else is having this issue I seem to have narrowed the problem down to certain Getty Stock clips. Anything with a frame size 640x360 & 23.98 framerate immediately brings the system to a crawl BUT making H264 proxies instead of Quicktime returns everything back to normal!? Also, it only happens with 23.98fps footage, 25fps behaves just fine.

 

Tried this in a fresh project, same thing. Is this a bug?

 

Macbook Pro M1Pro 32GB

Monterey 12.4

Pr 22.5.0

Hey DJP2014,

 

Sorry about the poor experience, and thank you for letting us know. You're right, we're aware of a similar issue related to poor playback of Prores proxies, and the Premiere Pro team is working on fixing it. For the time being, please use the h.264 proxies.

 

Thanks,

Ishan
