Incredible performance improvements have been implemented in user-identified areas such as software launch time, resource utilization, interface and project preview responsiveness, as well as import and export speed. Main performance improvements include:
Implementing Apple ProRes* as a smart proxy format for improved preview, playback, timeline rendering, and overall editing responsiveness
Changing behavioral logic to avoid unnecessary refreshes and reduce rendering delays
A new dropdown to choose from project preview quality options to optimize performance
Targeted speed improvements on importing clips into the library and exporting final projects
*Pinnacle Studio Smart Proxy supports the Apple ProRes format, but quality is limited to 4:2:2 8-bit.
