Question

Timeline is lagging working with captions

I work in a projects with a lot of captions. I have timelines with 30 to 70 minutes with captions.

Zoomed out to the whole timeline and visible captions my timeline starts to lag BIG time. The timeline zoomed in works just fine. Hiding the captions is also ok.

    SOLVED: Turn off "duplicate frame makers" in the setting of your sequence widow. It worked like a charm for me.

      This solved it for me, I had three language tracks on a 30 minute video and it was running terrible.  The timeline interface was running so slow.  Premiere Pro 22.6.1 (build 1)

        Hi BonteKoe Media,

         

        We're sorry about the poor experience. We can get this checked. Please let us know if this is a UI lag that you are observing or is it a lag with the playback of the timeline? Also, is this happening with any specific caption type, or is it with all of them?

         

        Thanks,

        Sumeet

          This playback performance with the captions visible and the timeline zoomed out is still present.

          The workaround in Mac is to create a new profile and work fom there. However, ones you have an update, you have to create a new profile on your Mac because of lag with captions visible. Again and again. 

           

          I have been told by a Mac expert that its a matter of rights. Its an Adobe problem in my view. A Creative Cloud problem.

          I've noticed this as well and filed a bug while the feature was still in the public beta. Performance has definitely improved since then, but it definitely declines on super long timelines or even when you have multiple sequences open. I've also found that the solution is either zooming in or toggling the Caption track's visibilty off.

            Thanks for both of you commenting on zooming in to a smaller section of the timeline or disabling the caption track to demonstrate the issue. I don't recall that in other posts about performance lagging with the new caption workflow.

             

            I do not see a bug report in uservoice on this, but they are hard to find. If either of you file a bug report, please post a link here so we can upvote.
