I have choppy playback on my ShowServer XHD R4 running 6.2-6.3 (Just updated to 6.3.1 from 6.2.1 and the issue is still present). Sometimes its a frame or two every couple of seconds, once in a blue moon it runs seamless, other times it jumps / skips a ton of frames multiple times / second. I'm trying to run two concurrent 3840x1493 29.97p clips. I have tried ProRes 422, LT, Proxy, HAP-Q (2 & 3 chunk), and also 1080 x 7XX versions of each flavor. There are no effects outside of geometry and edge blending applied. Even deleting a layer and playing only one clip results in the same issue. I have tried 60hz, 59.98hz, 30hz, 29.97hz settings in Watchout,
The display computer should be up to the task and then some. 10 core i9 7900x, Top of the line AMD GPU, Samsung 960 1.9TB SSD. The performance self diagnostic is 7.8/7.9, so its blazing fast and there should be NO REASON that this thing skips from hardware limitations.
Show Specifications:
2x 3840x1493 videos playing simultaneously
3 outputs/projectors
2x 1920x1200 Panasonic RZ12k that are blending one of the video files together
1x 3840x2160 Panasonic RZ32k
Each clip is approx 50 minutes long
No effects, color, anything applied to any clips.
Playback is using external timecode, but skipping occurs regardless of chasing SMTPE or not.
What am I doing wrong or where should I look?
