Hi David,

Thanks.  Some good pointers in there.  I never thought that using the same drive as your installations would have an impact.  That said, I rarely do that and try to use all separate drives for projects that way if the boot drive crashes, I don't lose my important files. Instead, it just makes for a week long effort to rebuild. lol

I will have to check out the speed test and verify cache location.

My first thought however was that there was just some procedure, similar to RAM preview so I was blaming Premiere for sure. :) lol  Now Vegas, which I really have loved for years did seem to have that lag as far back is like 2005 or so when I began using it.

Eric

From my point of view it is not controversial :-) …we sometime have a tendancy to put the blame quickly on a piece of software when the problem might be with our own system configuration…

When you say AVI file, what kind of codec are you using? uncompressed? you may have to create a RAID array if you are looking for realtime and consistency… but first I will make sure that your media is located on a different hard drive than your system/application drives… ideally the fastest hard drive on your system… as well as your cache folder…. you may want to use Disk Speed Test from Blackmagic or any other program to test the throughput you get with your hard drives…

HTH,

I'm using an avi file, 29.97fps, no RAID. My storage is a combination of internal SATA drives and externals, however this project is on an internal.  I have a radeon 6900 (I believe) with 2GB RAM.  System has an I7, 36GB RAM.
