GH2 Random

It´s mainly an edit test with the new Premiere Pro + Speedgrade CC 2014.1 update. I took some older random footage shot with the GH2 (2 scenes with the Gh4). This update has some really nice new features e.g. a Multi-Project Workflow and an improved masking tool in PP (the auto motion tracking feature is by far not perfect but for simple things it is working pretty well). A new curve adjustment (Hue/Saturation) has been added in SG. It seems that there are still some bugs which need to be fixed in a future update...

Locations: Hamburg, Dresden, Hongkong, Shanghai, Florence, Tuscany, St.Tropez, Vendrell, Island in Thailand
 

At the first test I had a fair bit of trouble: PP + SG were lagging and freezing, random crashes, stuttering TL/CTI ... etc. Now at the second test I used only mov-files of the GH4 instead of mts of the GH2 - 1 shot with the iPhone 5. Again, just some older random footage. I deleted the media cache, the cache files and the settings XML file. And it seems that this was a good idea. Now everything worked fine - no problems so far.

So if you have trouble too try the following:

• Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
• Trash preferences
• Ensure Adobe preference files are set to read/write
• Delete media cache
• Remove old plug-ins
• If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installed
• Repair permissions
• Disconnect hardware including AJA box
• Reboot
