Hello,
I'm getting really bad performance in Premiere trying to play 4k files from cameras such as Fs7 and the f5.
These exact same files, playing off the same drive are fine in my 2012 iMac.
both systems are running identical versions of Premiere CC. 2017.0.1
Originally MacBook had Premiere 2017.0.2 running an I installed previous version to see if that would help but it didn't.
Basically trying to play a single clip at what ever player res in premiere, just gives a choppy playback. Fans in MacBook go crazy. It will play maybe a 3-5sec, drop frames, stutter etc, then play a few more seconds.
MacBook Pro specs are about as high as they can go...
15" 2.9 ghz
16 gig ram
additional GPU
the reason I think premiere is the problem is because the same clips can happily play in VLC at full res and computer barely raises a heartbeat.
Any ideas?
(Premiere settings identical between iMac and MacBook Pro - open CL etc)
