Hey Simon,

Welcome to the community. Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue. Could you try marking in and out points and going to Sequence > Render In to Out and check if that renders the preview for you? Have you tried working with proxies? Please share your system specifications (OS, OS version, CPU, GPU, RAM). We're here to help.

Thanks,

Ishan

Thanks for sharing the information. It seems that your CPU might not be ideal for this workflow. Could you try creating proxies for your source files and see if the playback improves? You can do so by right-clicking on the source media > Proxies > Create Proxies. I recommend using the Quicktime Low Resolution Proxy preset. The playback might still not be smooth but it might improve.

Also, what are the hard drives (how many, what kind, what is on each, what capacity, and how full)?

Make sure to use the latest Studio Driver from NVIDIA (NOT the Game Driver).

Thanks Bob how do i find out what driver the NVIDIA  is running ant tips, here is the c,d drive and spec its killing me lol i really do apprecate the support

If those drives are HDD and not SSD, that could also contribute to the problem.

Use this free utility to find more details of the hard drives and the graphics driver (Make sure to choose the free version):
