Are people still using CC17 or CC18 to do multiple camera edit?
Why?
I used multicam edits in CS6 for 5 years nearly daily, having 5 HD cams with clips about one hour long and it never failed me (using F4 to bring up the multicam editor. I use it to go through the clips and select the right angle (camera) or to cut out pieces of the recording with the help of one empty video track. I start multicam editor and start selecting either wth the mouse or numbers 1 to 6. Recording is precise and on the spot. Selecting a differnt camera works on the spot!
I changed to CC17 because of editing 4K clips.
In CC 17 I tried it several times having 2 4K clips and 2 HD clips about an hour long. I choose multicam in the program monitor. I see my 4 different camera views and the empty video (for cutting unnecessary footage) I start play then record select one camera after a while I want to select at precisely this location another camera view, but the timeline plays and plays until ater one to 4 min it decides to make the cut!!! The same if I just want to play the edit and I want to stop at a certain point, it won't stop and sometimes it takes up to 4 min until it stops!
This is unacceptable!!! That's why I am asking if other people are still using multicam edit in CC17 (CC18 is even worse and I end up in blue screen)
The way around:
Now I do my multicam edit in CS6 it works precise! Most of the time I have 2x 4K clips and 2x HD clips. Once the cut is finished I open cc17 import the cs6 finished cut multicam sequence and do the finetuning there. No problems so far, No problems with that for the last 4 months!
Adobe what have you done? Why is it working in CS6 and not anymore in CC17?
and why are there so many blue screen errors? => a fatal windows crash
As I said I worked daily with CS6 for 5 years since 2012 when it was released, once in a while the program crasehd but I never ever had a windows blue screen fatal crash.
