neo scene & premiere pro cs4 at DVinfo.net

Greetings,
I've got a trial version of premiere pro cs4 and neo scene. I'm able to convert mts files from my canon hf100 into avi and then import them into premiere. when i view the avi file in the source window of premiere they play very smooth but when i add them to the timeline they are choppy. Please advise as to why or how to change this. Thanks.

Select "Auto" or "Draft" in the program monitor's settings. Premiere is a CPU hog at moment, and requesting the draft/auto modes helps a lot.

David,
Thanks for the quick reply. I tried setting the quality to draft for the program window but the playback is still really choppy but playback in the source window is fine. any more advise.

We have requests into Adobe to explain way it is significantly slower than is should be, but that doesn't help you. On fast PCs is normally fine, yet Premiere degrades so poorly. File a ticket, and have support check out your system details to see what might be happening.
