Why Premiere is behind from Edius in profomance wise, i've both on same system.

On 1080i timline the edius is more stable than ppro.

Why is that? I am patroling all over the web since for 2 months to get some facts on Edius vs ppro.

I've been working with ppro since 7/8 years..... Often people teased me that one day u'll going to switch to this EDIOT(edius).

Frankly i dont want to don't need to. But Adobe should have to work hard to keep the legend alive.

Back to my question why eduis works well than ppro?

    Unfortunately, I must agree to you.

    No pan shot without jerky play back with Premiere CS6 1080/50p with i7 3770, GTX 670, 250 GB SSD, Cuda enabled, 16 GB Ram . I really have tried everything to work that out (other hardware configurations, new sata cables, all possible bios configurations,...) . But in vain.

    At the moment I am testing Edius 6.5. Absolute smooth  playback also full-screen with effects!! Edius is my absolute new timeline reference :).

    Very hard to see that after using Premiere for so may years. I hope Adobe will fix the rough timeline. In the meantime I will try Edius for the first time for my new project.

    Dear Coredvideo,

    You are 100% right that Edius 6 a lot more stable than Premiere pro. In these  days time is everything. Edius is very fast, stable and Real-time than Premiere Pro. I am user of Premiere since version 5 but even today Premiere CS6 has some flaws. Premiere Pro is way behind the Edius 6 I am giving some of the Advantage of Edius 6.0 & 6.5 that Premiere Pro CS6 does not have.

    Edius 6                                                                                                 Premiere Pro 6

    Real-time without CUDA card                                                                   Premiere None

    Excellent Keyboard Editing without mouse                                               Premiere None

    Multicam Edit without Cuda and Proxy mode                                            Premiere None

    Color Correction before Multicam Edit                                                      Premiere None

    Easy tweaking in multicam edit                                                                 Premiere None

    Matchig Clips/Tape in Multicam while editing if miss match                      Premiere None

    while editing 1000s times without losing Multicam editig sequence

    Full screen Views for every window and every monitor like:                     Premiere None

    Source view, Program view, Multicam View+Program view

    for both and Multi views and Capture view

    Real-time editing, color correction effects and transitions                        Premiere None

    Proxy mode editing                                                                                   Premiere None

    Player and Program View in Same windows if editing in single view         Premiere None

    Fast Rendering                                                                                        Premiere None

    Easy one touch sync with Plural eye software                                          Premiere None

    Editing Clips in timeline is very fast C for selected one or multiple clips   Premiere None

    and Shift+C for whole timeline in CTI rather than in Premiere Pro

    manually selecting track and multi tracks

    Switchig in 16:9 and 4:3 without closing the project                                  Premiere None

    High resolution display in source and program windows                           Premiere None

    these are some examles of advantages of Edius 6

    If you like Edius better, use that.  No one here is forcing you to use Premiere Pro.

    Jim,

    I am with you. I fail to understand a person, who has found the perfect NLE, for their workflow, and then insist that another NLE should be re-written to the specs. of their choice. The easy answer is "just use the one that works best for you."

    I've used Edius 6 for almost two years now, and I can attest that it's way faster and more stable than Premiere CS6, while being a 32 bit program and is faster than PP CS6, without the need for an expensive CUDA card, since Edius only uses the CPU. It doesn't have many of the hiccups of Premiere, and you can play with JKL like crazy and it's responsive, which Premiere isn't. Premiere is much slower to respond to JKL keystrokes than Edius. On the monitor window, Edius displays footage smoothly, while Premiere does it with hiccups, at least at full resolution.

    That said, what made me invest in a $280 graphics card with CUDA and $600 in a Matrox Mini MXO2 to edit in Premiere is that Edius is still kind of lame in the filters that it comes with, and keyframing levels is horrible. Not to be said that you can't do great things with it, you can, but Premiere gives more creative freedom, not to mention that being profficient at Premiere will give you more jobs than Edius.

    But yes, for someone coming from the Edius world, Premiere seems awfully slow sometimes.

    I am a long time user of Edius and Premiere , both have there weakness and strengths,I use both in many  of my productions, both run fine side by side on the same PC. The only thing which  concerns me is  hardware upgrading to keep up with Adobe software everytime new version is launched.

    That's hardly true.  I've been using the same hardware since CS4, and it now runs CS6 like a dream.

    Edius rock in terms of realtime performance. It was hard for me to drop Edius in favor of PP (Master Collection). I think in some ways Edius is better than PP but the integration between the Adobe programs is what makes PP shine.

    Well, I have used Edius ver. 5 and 6 a lot, but performance wise I think PPRO CS5 and beond I think is great with the right hardware (cuda card) fast discs etc. Even on my test system, an "old" quadcore with 8GB and 3 single SATA I discs, it is pretty fast on HD 1080i and stable as well.

    On 1080i timline the edius is more stable than ppro.

    That is a very abstract statement. Can you elaborate on what you mean by "stable?"

    Good luck,

    Bill's right.  Some details about the specific problem you're having are needed before we can provide any answers.
