After the first installation, imported video files don't run. You can only here the sound an see a freeze frame. When you stop the video you see a freeze frame of the current time position, Under Windows 10 you can run the videos without problems. I tried different video files.

I hope you have so helping informatrions for me!

Regards

Thomas

    Hi Thomas,

    Are these HD or 4K files? Let us know.
    Either way: given your underpowered system, you should look into the proxy workflow.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    vishuagg19yenaphe the playback quality was still low and the settings mercury playback engine software only - also. It doesn't work.

    I have just found out: Change display mode from video to multicamera. Then the video is playing. But in the display mode video is still a freeze frame of the video.

    I recommend editing with Cineform proxies for your media.  You will find performance noticeably improved, especially once effects come into play.

    Work offline using proxy media |

    As vishuagg19​ said, we need more information.

    On top of what he said, could you also provide the hardware specifications of your computor, and the OS version ?

    You need to provide more information related to the video you're importing in the premiere, also let us know the version of premiere pro.

    You can try the following -

    • Lower the playback quality settings from the program window of premiere pro
    • If it does not work then try -  Changing the Video Renderer to Mercury Playback Engine software only under File > Project Settings > General. Delete previews after clicking on OK.
