Hello and sorry for my bad english. As the title said, working with BRAW files in Premiere is terrible. I use BRAW studio. I can put my footage on my 980Pro, but the playback is choppy. If i have more than one layer in the timeline (one above the other) and i have all the layers active, Premiere die. If i set playback to full, the playback is a bit choppy. If i set playback to 1/2, playback is good. If  i set to 1/4, playback not works at all. I have audio but video is super choppy. 

Here is a video of the same timeline in Premiere and in Davinci at Full res. No way sir, in DaVinci i can have all tracks on, and i can choose the clip to play while the playback is working, without issues. 

Tried everything: close all panels, disabled H264 acceleration, disabled cuda in timeline, disabled mercury, cleared the cache...nothing works. 

This is not new to Premiere, i think that CS6 was the last usable Premiere.

Hope that is there a solution to this ridicolous performance...and i think that my system can handle all this stuff., as DaVinci show very well...or we need the Artemis One system to run Premiere?

I'm not at home til later in the week. I do primarily BRAW with the Autokroma plug-in and haven't had any playback issues on my Puget PC, 3960x 2080Ti. All SSD working drives.

 

I'll check again when I get home.

Everyone's mileage always varies ...

Thank you so much for the reply. But i think that all this probolema are related to the way Premiere uses GPU and CPU. With Fast Tuning in BIOS settings we can work again, not at full res all the times (this is not a must have, but sometimes clients want to see their products in super full res, so unfortunately i have to go back and forth from DaVinci. Hope that something new will come soon. Thank you again and sorry if i've posted in the wrong section.

Sorry for this...but is there someone that can reply to this thread? Is the situation that i'm having common? Is there a way to improve this ugly Premiere performance? We have 2 6K, 1 4K and 1 12K, we edit BM raw everyday, but in this situation is pretty impossible to work. 

Again, thank you

I find I can't get good playback from any Braw material, either with the Blackmagic plugin or the Autokroma braw studio. As expected playback in Resolve is very good.

Really sad. I've find that the only timline that makes me play footage at Full resolution with a decent playback is the Red full HD one. I don' t know why. If i create a custom full hd timeline playback is choppy. I hope that Adobe and Blackmagic will solve this problems because, at least in Italy, we use BM cameras a lot.
