can I? But what is happening is that in the test project I am sending you is that I have the same comp shot duplicated 4 times in the editor, and the bottom 3 have opacity set to 0, and the top comp shot opacity 100% although setting the opacity to 0 for the bottom 3 tracks doesn't seem to do anything, as hitfilm seems to go "Ok, we have 4 comp shots. Normally I just keyframe the opacity for shots in and out, rather than cutting them up and committing to certain cuts - does that make sense? What I find is that playback is smoothest (and resource usage least) by clicking the "eye" icon off for a given track, but obviously I want to be able to bring a comp track in or out at certain points, and I can't keyframe the "eye" or visibility/active setting. I am just uploading it now.įrom what I can figure, the issue occurs when I have many comp shots in the editor that overlap, or many comp shots that exist at the same point in time.
#Hitfilm pro 3 vs 4 proxy speed how to
I didn't know how to upload here, so I will give you a oneDrive link (public) here shortly. I was able to create a short test project that shows the issue, or at least the fact that hitfilm 3 is choppy when playing back versus hitfilm 2. Is there some setting to force the GPU to be used during playback, or is it all RAM/CPU?Īny ideas or help is much appreciated. What am I doing wrong? I was hoping with a majorly more powerful GPU that I now have, I'd be able to at least get the same if not better performance, but at the moment I am going to have to proxy/pre-render everything, as I am doing music videos where I need to see that the playing/singing is in sync. Even with the viewer set to render "Quarter", I still am getting choppy playback, but the exact same project in Hitfilm 2 Ultimate was pretty smooth at the same "Quarter" render in the viewer.
#Hitfilm pro 3 vs 4 proxy speed upgrade
I decided to upgrade my GPU, I am now running on a Nvidia GTX 970 4GB Overclocked. I used to run Hitfilm 2 Ultimate on a Nvidia GTX 650Ti 1GB, and was always able to get smooth playback with the viewer set to "Quarter" Render.

My question is about what to expect with realtime performance.

so far, looks great, the new interface is slick, the extra features I haven't really got to yet but overall it looks great.
