Stuttering Audio in Timeline Playback #5582

UPDATE:Have installed daily version Something that may point to the solution is that I'm not seeing a little blue area ahead of the playhead denoting the amount of data being buffered. As always, this may be by design, and not an error. I have run this both with a clean set of log files and without I have attached a fresh set of logs, in the hope that this helps further diagnosis of the issue. |
hello @AtomicFez Thank you for update.
Cache Pre-roll:: Min Frames = 24 <--Change this to 48 These are experimental at this time. Just because you have lots of RAM doesn't mean to up the "Cache Limit (MB)" value. Making this very large but not having a very high end gaming/video editing computer will really slow things down. Note: I have a 32gb RAM system. For the Cache Limit I set it to 2048 when editing even with larger/complex projects. When I am previewing I change the Cache Limit to 4096 (or a bit more). The nice part is that you can make this change and not have to restart OpenShot. Would like to hear back from you on both points. |
Thank you for the suggestions!
Hooray for both! Now I wonder two things: will those changes to the preferences remain in place when I apply a new 'Daily' or other update, and are those settings recommended going forward as regular ones, or only to be changed to when I'm getting a problem, and then switch back after reviewing the problematic passage? |
When running a preview of my video, I get really jittery audio playing. It gets stuck in a loop of less than a second and runs a bunch of times then jumps forward to the next second or sometimes two seconds and keeps going until a few seconds later and then repeats the behaviour.
In the timeline, when previewing a video of still JPGs a little after the one hour mark (I started at that point), the images cross-fade, and somewhere in the middle of that transition this super-short loop happens. I can get it to happen consistently.
This shouldn't happen, and hasn't until today.
I've now created a GitHub account, tried to upload .log files at least four times through the Bug Report page on the OpenShot website, cleared all of the files in the
/Users/MyName/.openshot_qt/recovery
folder (and theopenshot_qt
folder, by the way, is no longer in theHome
root folder in Apple's OS, so that needs to be updated in the documentation about where the folder hides), started the programme several times trying to get the error to reproduce and not flood the log file with information so as to get the size of thelibopenshot.log
down to a manageable size (it started at well over 500MB) but had to ZIP the damned things anyway (and if you can upload the files in a compressed form through the Bug Report page on the OpenShot website, that would be great but I doubt that's possible to do), and I've probably lost about 1/3 of my hair as I yank most of it out in frustration.Needless to say, I sincerely hope that some of this is useful in the fixing of this problem. For all of this to be for nought would be... saddening.
