Pro Tools Video File Sluggish
Hi.
My Pro Tools session is acting very sluggish, and I suspect that it's due to the video file format. I've tried a couple of different formats, and I keep getting the same sluggish behavior. Question is, what is a convenient format that I can convert to? PT HD v10.3.10 Mac OS X v10.9.5 (24 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory; 2 x 2.66 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon Processor) Video #1 specs - 34.4 MB size. H.264, 960 x 540, AAC stereo, 24 FPS. MP4 file format. Video #2 specs - 1.31 GB size. x264Encoder, 1280 x 720, stereo, 23.98 FPS. .MOV file format. I am working with both of those video files above, and both are very sluggish. I have QuickTime 7 Pro and QuickTime 10.3 handy. Using either of these, is there a file format that I can convert to that will remove the sluggish behavior from Pro Tools? Thanks! |

Re: Pro Tools Video File Sluggish
You could convert H264 to MJpg (or DNxHD36 or ProRes Proxy/LT) with QT Pro.
Basically, stay away from interframe codecs (H264) and use intraframe codecs. http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/en_US/FAQ/en364547 http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/e...r-Pro-Tools-11
