Magix Pro v6 jerky playback / editing

marcusdeman wrote on 8/8/2016, 5:40 PM

Hi,

I am running Magix Video Pro v6 and the other day I shot a video I am trying to edit.

However, the camera was (unfortunately) set to 16 fps. When I try to edit it in Magix Pro the playback is very jerky. Impossible to edit. What can I do?

The mp4 encoder used is Mainconcept.

I've added a screenshot with the media info.

 

Thanks in advance

Hi

Not a lot I can suggest except use the "Speed" effect to stretch it out to 25 fps or 30 fps, plus use the interpolation option in that effect window.

If after export the playback speed is wrong then import the export and adjust the speed again and re export.

Hi

. . . . . When I try to edit it in Magix Pro the playback is very jerky . . . . 

What is your computer specification - include processor ma,e / model, RAM, graphics card or chipset used, number of hard drives, their configuration and free space.

Do you have GPU or Hardware Acceleration turned on in the programs settings Video / Audio tab?

Do you have Automatically create proxy checked in the projects settings dialog?

Processor: AMD Athlon Phenom 2, 2.4 ghz if I remember correctly

Memory: 8 GB

Video card: ATI Radeon HD 4600 Series

HDD Space: 1 SSD (OS), 2 HDDs all with Multiple GBs free of space.


I have used this configuration successfully to edit 30fps movies. Only with these 16fps movies the playback is jerky.

Hi

. . . . AMD Athlon Phenom 2, 2.4 ghz . . . 

Dual, triple or quad core - please give the model number if possible? 

. . . . HDD Space: 1 SSD (OS) . . . . 

What is the free space on this drive?

. . . . successfully to edit 30fps movies . . . . 

Were these also 1280 * 720 HD video or Standard Definition - 720 * 480 (NTSC) /  720 * 576 (PAL)?

Are you using hardware acceleration and proxy files ?

Its a triple core cpu.

SSD space is about 10GB free

The other movies I edited were also in 1280*720 resolution.

Yes HW acceleration was already on and proxy I turned on as well for this.

FYI,

I played back the 16,6 fps movie and the playback is jerky.

I removed it from Magix and replaced it with a 30fps movie with same resolution and the playback is just fine.

Hi

I would expect the video recorded at 16fps to look jerky when played back at 25fps or 30fps, but to clarify - is this jerkiness in MEP different or much worse than if the clip is played back in a player like Windows mediaplayer?

Also did you try any of my suggestions in my earlier reply?

I've upgraded to Magix Pro v8 and that resolved it. So apparently there is a bug in x6 that causes jerky playback.
