hi there 
I am new in mac system and I have macbook m3 "max" 
when I tried to do speed ramp in premiere it started with a lag and drop frame in the speed ramping period 
I tried to change the frames sequence from 24 up to 60 fps it doesn't help 
it is so weird becuase definitely it will not happen because of my laptop is weak with "42" ram 
if anyone has solution out of the requirements to run premiere just let me know
(speed ramp is choppy and lag)
by the way I tried other versions of premiere and beta one and the issue still exist 

I hope I find solution for this issue

We can get this checked. Could you provide the details of the media (frame rate, frame size, format/codec)? Which device was used to record the media? What are your system specifications (CPU, GPU, RAM, OS version)?

Let us know.


Thanks,
Nishu

My takes are 4k 60fps, in a fx30 cam with slog3, but in my old acer nitro 5
with i5 i can do the speed ramp with proxies without lag, and in mac pro m4

What are the complete computer specs, including hard drives (how many, what kind, what is on each, what capacity, and how full)?

If NVIDIA graphics, make sure to use the latest Studio Driver from NVIDIA (NOT the Game Driver).

What are your media properties (file type and codec)?

Have you tried proxies?
