Hello,
I am learning Premiere using Lynda.com files.
This loads the project, files and all, which slows down my Macbook Air M1 256Gb/8Gb - for example, hitting the space bar to play a sequence in the Timeline, it can take a second or two for the sequence to play. Also, the preview in Program Monitor can freeze, while the audio continues to play normally.
I wonder whether it is possible to open a project, loading only certain files?
Many thanks

Hi guy.cruls,
Thanks for writing in.
Does it happen only with the large projects only? Could you test the performance on a new project?
If it's happening with this particular project then instead of opening it, you can import it into a new project. It'll give you the option to import selected sequences or the entire project.
Let us know if it helps.
Thanks,
Nishu

Thank you for your suggestion.
I have tried to post, attaching a 1Mb screenshot but was unable to post...
now trying to edit post by adding screenshot...
OK, so that worked.
and so, looking at the screenshot, you can see a couple of sequences.
now you can choose which clips to import but sequences are part and package of a project, aren't they, and there is quite a number of sequence in the Lynda.com project file.
Each sequence connects to as many clips as there are clips in the sequence, so all that stuff seems to be packed together, with no prossibility of chopping things up?
