i have noticed an issue when collaborating with other editors now , on two occasions . this is when i open a sequence which they have emailed to me, normally from a previous version of PP.
on one occasion it was from an earlier version of v2017 and on another occasion it was from CS5. pretty much the same issue occurs each time.
when i convert to 2017 and load it onto my computer, it seems there is huge trouble playing back the clips, they constantly freeze and stop as though they were loaded with too many effects. even if i turn off or remove all effects the playback problems dont go away.
this means im having to pause the sequence every few seconds in order to see it play properly for a few seconds before it stops again. a very tedious and hard way to have to work.
if i create a sequence myself, (for arguments sake lets call it 2nd draft) and load in some clips from the project window i can play them back with no problem, but once i copy in a clip from the other editors sequence (draft 1) that clip will continue to have problems as will every other clip from draft 1. wierdly enough, this even happens when i 'render and replace' the clip.
if create a preview file, (render in-out) however, the video seems to play back ok
any ideas as to whats happening ?
im using a toshiba sattelite i7-2670 2.6GHz
8GB ram
2TB hard disc, with 170GB free
i know its not the best computer in the world, but what irks me is how my own sequences can work fine, but the imported sequence does not. that suggests a problem which is not related with my actual computing power.
