Super laggy playback despite good PC specs
Hi
My specs are as follows:
ryzen 9 3900x
32gb ddr4 ram
nvidia 4070
The clips I am trying to edit are 1080p 60fps footage in the h.264 codec.
I make sure to set playback to 1/4 quality to try to help my playback issues, but this seems to have very little effect.
Despite these specs however, I am having an insane amount of playback lag. I will skip 2 or 3 minutes forward in a project and have to wait 30 seconds to a minute before premiere will start playing it.
Other times I will try to pause premiere and the video will lock up but the audio will keep playing for about 20 seconds.
One of the things about my clips is that they will have about 6 audio tracks and I believe these may be causing the issue, however I see no way to solve this short of just recording in 1 audio track, which is not possible with what I am trying to make.
Do you guys have any reccomndations for what I could do?
I have found guides online that suggest converting videos to prores, but my video clips are 5 or 6 hours each(of which a project may use around 10), and the files sizes would then be multiple TBs
