Hi @DTH35493170fvus,

Thanks for the notes. It sounds like you are having performance issues. Can you tell us a bit more about your computer? How much RAM do you have? What kind of drives are you running for your media drive? Do you have a separate drive for media cache files? How are these drives connected to your Mac? Are they connected to the high-speed ports? We also want to hear more about your .mov-wrapped files. Which camera shot these files? Or did the files not come from a camera? Let us know. That is also an important detail. You can also check if the proxy workflow might work better. I hope we can help you. Sorry for your issues.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Dear sir,
My Ram size is 64GB,  my media cache files are stored in my internal drives. These video files are shot in PTZ camera and recorded in ProRes 4K Video Recorder- Desktop HDR-80 (in .mov format). I even tried Creating proxies ,but still it's not working- not able to edit and export.

Hi @DTH35493170fvus,

Thanks for the info. How many streams of 4K? What kind of proxies? Are your proxies showing as attached in the Project panel? Where are your media files stored? Also internally? Something odd is going on here. I hope we can help. Sorry, I don't have an immediate solution. Perhaps upload a sample file I can pass along to engineering if it's not too much trouble. I hope I can help you.

 

Thanks,
Kevin
