This morning, just to retrace my steps, I dropped a short MTS file into PRE as a new project. The usual "Clip Mismatch" Warning appeared, and I selected "Change project settings". I checked "Porject Setting/General" and the frame size is now set to 1920x 1080. Next, before dropping it into the Timeline, I right clicked on it while it is in the Project Assets and selected "Run Auto Analyzer". The process stopped at 45%. So, to completely restart the process with a different approach, I closed PRE, not saving the project.
I restarted PRE and dropped a different, short MTS file into Project Assets, and this time I dropped it onto the Timeline, and a yellow line above it (no orange or red lines) appeared. I clicked "Enter", the file was rendered and started playing and I stopped it. A right click on the file on the Timeline doesn't list "Run Auto Analyzer." So, I right clicked on it in the Project Assets and selected "Run Auto Analyzer", and it ran to 87% and stopped..
In repeating this process with other short MTS files, they halt at different percents. Some even go to 100%, but still hangs, not indicating that the process was finished. In some of those scenarios I checked Windows Task Manager, and it never shows that PRE has stopped running. However, CPU and Memory use don't change.
I repeated this process with one of my older AVI files. PRE shows that the frame size is set to 720 x 480. I started Auto Analyzer, and it stopped at 1%. Again, Windows Task Manager shows the same status of PRE as in other cases. Repeated with a different AVI file, and Auto Analyzer, and it stopped at 3%.
I can see no pattern as to how far the analyzation process runs before stopping.
I guess the conservative approach would be reloading the program, else purchase version 2025.
Oh! I have let PRE sit for a couple of hours just to see if the process would resume after sopping, and it doesn't.
(Forgot to say earlier that I've also watched on YouTube many of your very helpful videos.)
