Hello all, Sibel Here I'm a fairly armature user in pp's rendering process
but over the last 4 days I've been experimenting with some 3rd party codecs.
Among the few I managed to go through based on AVI, H264, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 codecs.
The codecs I've used are as follows.
Matorx
x264vfw
Lagarith(lossless)
MagicYUV(lossless)
Now they all function great on screen, but it's on the timeline that issues snag my guts, especially when scrubbing.
Matrox is somewhat ok but it needs higher(~80-120Mbps) bit-rates to perform as well as H264, Lagarith is absolute but my HDD data transfer can't handle it (197Mbpps on Velociraptor WD HDD), hence the name LAGarith I guess.
Finally Magic, which is wonderful but I can't mange to scrub through it properly, although it comes with it separate encoder that compresses and decompresses it as I edit through it.
As far as I know, they all seem great but I'm lacking on performance.
My goal is to, import my raw files clip and edit my way through them and export without facing any latency or lag.
My system is as follows
CPU 4930k 3.90 Ghz 6>12cores
RAM 16Gb ram
@1600
VGA GTX 760 2GB @ 1137 Mhz on 192.2 GB/s of MB.
HDD 1tb of 192Mb/s
@10,000 RPM
It's a fairly decent rig, for what I hope to accomplish with it.
I would wholeheartedly appreciate the aid in finding a really decent codec in which I could record in or encode to that'll help with editing workflow, consider a full edit tune-up in mind not just film and scissors, but expect lights, shadows and beyond, yet the goal is to do this in raw form of the file, so thanks!
Sincerely
Sibel
