Lagging constantly during playback

  No matter what i do the playback in Premiere Pro stutters constantly every 0.8 seconds or sth. Ive turned the resolution down, its just 720p 60 FPS .mp4 footage without any effects at all, ive even pre rendered the entire footage and the line above the Footage is green indicating, that the playback should be fine but nothing changed.
• Literally nothing is maxed out on my PC.

What capacity and how full is the SSD?

Is it your only drive?

That's not enough free space for temp and system files.

You need more free space there, too.

Where are your Media Cache files?

Makochako,

Definitely check Preferences > Audio Hardware as it sounds like the issue. A screen recording of the issue might help. You can delete media cache in media cache preferences. Works best with all projects closed.

Thanks,
Kevin

I have already deleted all meda files once and it didnt help. I have recorded how the problem looks like in Premiere Pro and how it should look like in Vegas. Ive made a screenshot of my Audio Hardware settings as i dont know what to change there.

I am also facing the same situation, even updating to a newer version does not improve 😞

Currently my Media Files are stored on C:.  Also now i have 88 GB of Free storage on C: and 212 GB of Free Storage on E:. You can take a look at the files I have attached to another anwser.

Where are the Media Cache files, not the Media files, stored?

[Nobodie]

Peru Bob i meant the Media Cache files. Theyre stored on C:. Here is a screenshot of my Audio Hardware settings. Ive already put the default input to no input. Im using Voice meeter to have different inputs and outputs for my streams for Desktop Audio, Audio my Audience cant her, Music etc. may that be the Problem?

I am also facing the same situation, even updating to a newer version does not improve, does anyone know if anyone is having the same problem?

try Preferences > Audio Hardware > Default Input => select "No Input"

Yeah i try, and it's correct :))

So far this issue is solved. As i understand it, it was caused by the lag from Voicemeeter. As ive said i use it to combine/split Audio Inputs/outputs. Instead of outputting the sound from Premiere Pro into the general output called "voice meeter input" where every sound on my entire computer is combined ive made it so that premiere outputs its sounds into the output called "cable output". But that means that everytime i want to use premiere i need to switch my outputs...

[Nobodie]

Ok forget my entire theory. Because i was new to Premiere Pro i of course googled the best settings for premiere pro. The default Latency here is 200 but i was told to set it on 50. Ive put it back to 200 and now it seems to work no matter what output.
