Appreciate the confirmation. Like you, sometimes, I just don't have the time either to do troubleshooting and instead revert back to what I know works. I believe my system is well capable, with an i7, 32GB RAM, Win 8, all updates, etc.
Â
Maybe an update will fix. I am in the market in for that GT870 (someone here recommended) card in short order as well. Not sure if that will help but hope to see some improvement somewhere as a result from my Radeon 6970 i mentioned yesterday.
FWIW: Premiere Pro CC 2014 is pretty unusable on my system as well. Froze the system twice, I had to manually cut power and restart each time – a problem I have not had with this workstation before. Before it froze I had similar problems to what you describe.
I gave up and am back to using Premiere Pro CC (Version 7.2.2 (33)) until I see an update to the new (2014) version installed. The ‘original’ CC continues to be rock solid for me.
Â
I don’t have the time to figure out what the problem is with 2014, but you’re not the only person having problems: Which was one of your original questions.
Â
I think my system does meet spec:
Â
Windows 7 – all available updates
NVidia 680 GTX 2 GB – newest driver
Dual Xeons – quad core
148 GB memory
Separate SSD’s for OS, Scratch, pagefile.sys and content.
Â
-- For those raising that issue.
Â
I’m sure Adobe will figure this out and fix it, not a big deal for me for now.

I shut down app and relaunch and import works. The video on the timeline itself sometimes plays a portion, then you hear audio and video is locked still. Â Then other times, the very video on the timeline that appeared in the viewer before, shows almost like it's offline, even though it's right there.
