Video File Loading in PT 2021.6
Just updated a system to 2021.6
Mac Mini 2018 10.14.6 HD Native Thunderbolt-Avid Omni Samsung T5 SSD for session storage Screen recorded it here: A session with quite a few video files takes about 10 times longer to open that it did in Pro Tools 2020.12. Oddest thing is that unlinked video is actually much faster, as i did in the video if you move the video files or whole session the session opens much quicker and you can relink video from there, which... even though it pinwheeled a bit in this case,I think ended up in me actually being able to hit play in the session a little quicker than if the video was linked in the first place. Anyone else seeing this behavior? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFroqGQTgxM

Re: Video File Loading in PT 2021.6
There were issues with this in 2021.3 (and possibly 3.1?) related to sessions taking a very long time to open when there were references to unlinked video files. Maybe they fixed one issue and broke the other? How fast do the sessions open once they have been opened, linked/relinked, saved and reopened? With the previous bug, once all the references to unlinked files were resolved, the sessions opened at normal speed again.

Re: Video File Loading in PT 2021.6
Well that's a bummer! I dropped back to 2020.11 from 2021.3 due to the slow loading/hang issue on sessions with lots of video files, among other reasons. I was really hoping 2021.6 would be solid, but this is kind of a deal breaker for me. Have you done anything like trash prefs, reboot, etc. to see if it's just a fluke?

I haven't done a full preferences trash but 2021.6 came with a HD Native card firmware update so i did a full system reboot right before opening it for the first time. Everything else seems to be working well, just this slow video loading but i'll give a preference trash a go just to be sure.

Re: Video File Loading in PT 2021.6
Thanks for the updates. DUC user GIVES said in a post in the Pro Tools 2021 forum that he had been working with Avid on the crashing when bouncing to QT issue in 2021.3(.1), which seems to be fixed, and that Avid are aware of the slow loading issue. He said that he would post an answer in a separate thread about the slow video session loading issue, but I haven't found that answer yet.
