[Bug 595538] Re: (Feature) Working with full HD video files is slow, even on modern computers

 

I had the same kind of problems (working with video files of around 1GB
each, plus photo files, plus audio files, etc.)

The problem disappeared when I put files are on separate, fast-access,
USB keys (for example Patriot). I tried the following configuration:
videos on one USB key, and other files (projects (.osp), music,
pictures/photos, sequence of pictures) on another. With that
configuration, everything worked fast, almost instantly.

This indicate that the issue might be some traffic jam when the programs
has to access several files, some of which are big, at the same time (or
in a short period of time), on the same media.

Title:
  (Feature) Working with full HD video files is slow, even on modern
  computers

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  New

Bug description:
  (This is a feature request)
  When working with high quality source files, the user interface gets slow and hard to use. Previews are slow, sometimes almost unusable and the application may even crash as a result.

  A great feature would be if one could convert the source files to some
  nice light "working format" (lower quality, smaller frame sizes etc),
  so that timeline editing goes fast and easy, and that one, when it is
  time for rendering, could choose to use the original files so that the
  rendered video becomes high quality.
