![]() It takes 1-3 seconds to cache in each frame, which took a total of about 2-3 minutes to fully cache in. Just tonight I tried to add a scene strip of a very simple 4 second text animation to the VSE, nothing fancy at all. This same problem regarding laggy caching/preview also exists for the VSE's own effects strips, to which proxies don't even apply.However, if I may, I'd like to share some hesitations and doubts with this solution: I will definitely try testing out the proxies again for my videos and see if that fixes the problem. I imagine you're right about this not being the best for video editing. Yes, for my tutorials I use OBS to record a compressed. And therefore I have this issue with every video I edit, not just one specific Thank you for clearing that up about the proxies. But thank you for putting up with me I can send you a video and blend file if you want, but I'm guessing my problems are due to what you and Nathan are saying about the compression issues, because my videos aren't really created specifically for scrubbing/editing. Sometimes I just don't know how to phrase my confusion or problems in the best way. You all have accomplished so much! I absolutely love Blender and I owe it to such hard working people like you. I truly am grateful for everything that you and the other Blender developers do. I do admit I'm fairly ignorant when it comes to coding and developing, but I never mean to complain. ![]() At the same time, mp4 is nice for playback performances as this container has all the video's metadata at the front of the You guys are awesome! Thank you so much for your replies :) First I want to apologize if any of my comments sounded harsh or ignorant. Note that recording mp4 means that if obs crashes during recording, your video will be lost. In the free software world, Olive has great playback and scrub performances like that. At the same time, mp4 is nice for playback performances as this container has all the video's metadata at the front of the Regarding Justin's problem, nowadays you have quite a few video editing packages that allow you to work without proxies using compressed h264 footage at 1080p. I've set it pretty low here, at 20mb/s, you probably want something closer to 100mb/s (meaning video sizes of up to 6gb per minute of recording). You also need to crank up the bitrate to accomodate for the uncompressed footage. If you're using OBS, you need to use the advanced mode in the output section, then head to the recording tab, and you can set it to record mp4, using the h264 codec, with a keyframe every 1 frame. If you record from a dslr, you can't do anything. If you want better playback performances from the get-go in any video editing program, you will have to change the encoding settings when you record your footage or transcode your footage (this is what happens when you create proxies). footage encoded and compressed with the h264 codec), even in something like Resolve. Now, in general, you won't get silky smooth scrubbing in any video editing program without proxies if you record compressed videos (like what people call "mp4", i.e. Not that it's a big priority, but it'd be more comfortable to edit with the VSE if some dev were to look into that in Blender it's generally best to work with proxies unless you change your recording settings and record very big videos. In general, Blender has some performance issues with importing and scrubbing through videos that some other video editing programs don't have. This does happen exactly the same whether the footage has a gop size of 2 or something like 100, so it seems there's something happening there. That's why it doesn't happen with proxies. ![]() The issue with Blender is it freezes every time the time cursor reaches a new strip with about any hd footage that doesn't have a gop size of 1 (keyframe on every frame). Regarding Justin's problem, nowadays you have quite a few video editing packages that allow you to work without proxies using compressed h264 footage at 1080p.
