2022.4 Mp3 Import Extremely Slow
Brand new MacBook Pro 16", latest Monterey. Nothing installed but Pro Tools on this machine.
Mp3 imports are mind bogglingly slow. I sent the same files for others to import on their pro tools rigs and they imported them with 2022.4 and no issue. What could possibly be causing this? I have tried moving the files to different drives, messed with import settings, etc. WAV files seem to convert very quickly. Anyone have any clues as to what this could be?

Interesting… I just imported a couple of 4 minute MP3’s yesterday from a client. Seemed fast to me.

Re: 2022.4 Mp3 Import Extremely Slow
I have the same issue on a MBP max, MacOS 12.4, PT 22.4. This system through all the flavors of Monterey and the latest at the time PT has had slow MP3 imports. Lately it seems to be getting slower. Today I had a 1 minute MP3 bring PT on this system to it knees (on a drag and drop...the MP3 graphic frozen on the screen as soon as it was over the edit window and PT became unresponsive). It took a system restart to fixed this. At this point I have no idea if the issue is Monterey, PT, or M1 related...MP3 import works fine on my 2 other intel systems not running Monterey.

Weird. I can get it to work both ways, just SUPER SLOWLY.

Re: 2022.4 Mp3 Import Extremely Slow
OK so I am onto a trend here: Pro Tools sees a lot of these mp3's as 32-bit. These files take a very long time to convert. If Pro Tools sees the mp3 as 16 bit, its fast.

Re: 2022.4 Mp3 Import Extremely Slow
Has anybody found a fix or workaround for this nonsense? unbelievably slow import of mp3s over here since upgrading to most recent version. unacceptable for ANYTHING on an M1 device to process this slow. especially something as mundane as an mp3.

Re: 2022.4 Mp3 Import Extremely Slow
updating to 2022.5 fixed the mp3 import issue for me. I also updated one of our rooms that has an HD Native system. MP 6.1 OS 12.3 PT Ultimate 2022.5 and had no issues with mp3 import.
