Premier Pro

I just started learning this program during the free trial period. It is expansive compared to Caput. The features are endless.
It seems like a good program for doing everything.

I am having a problem with exported projects playing very choppy. They play perfectly within Adobe.
A Google search revealed several others having this issue, with others having no problems.
Do you have any ideas on what I might be doing wrong?

So, I slowed the FPS to 30, and it was smooth.
I don't understand why this new computer should handle 60FPS and beyond 8K with no problems.

What's the bitrate of the 60fps video? If it's crazy high, you can adjust settings to get it down while preserving 60 frames.

What you are seeing in the Timeline Window in PP is not at the full resolution, it’s interpolated to fit the window resolution, which enables it to playback smoothly more easily. Once exported your media player will try and play it at full frame and full resolution, which, it appears, it cannot cope with.

What resolution was your time line: 1080HD, 4K UHD?

What are the specifications of your computer: Processor and Graphics (GPU)?

A lot will depend on what hardware acceleration your setup supports.

Are you exporting the files as h.264, h.265 or .mov?

Some CPU’s (Apple Silicon included) have hardware acceleration for h.265, which allows playback at high frame/high bitrate.

I’m not certain of the hardware playback capabilities of your version of the i7 or GPU but I’ll check.

If you can export as h.264 you should have more luck as it’s a less taxing format to playback.

 

[Jim622]

h.264 is the default, and that is what I was using.

Update:
The problem was Adobe!
I downloaded the new Beta version, and the problem went away. I exported the same video at 60 FPS 4 K 3840 X 2160 this morning. It played flawlessly. Enough of the testing; it's time to shoot some real video.
