Hello friends,
I bought the new MBP with the 2.9ghz processor, Radeon 460, 16GB of RAM to use for work in the video/film industry. I have a 2013 Mac Pro, but I prefer to do rough cuts on a laptop, then jump over to the trashcan to finalize and render.
I'm experiencing crashes every 20 or so minutes in Premiere Pro running the playback at 1/16th. My old mid 2012 was able to edit at 1/8th, so I have to believe something is wrong.
I did a full fresh install and still have issues. It's very difficult to replicate the symptoms, but I can induce one nearly every time.
Here are the things I've observed.
- Random crashes with bare clips, nothing has been done to them
- After the crash I have to unplug everything, external hard drive and even the charger or it will get stuck in a crash cycle (can usually replicate this)
- Sometimes after a crash it will crash again after 10 or so seconds on the desktop after putting my password in
- Seems to crash more when plugged into the power adapter
It looks to be something with the CPU as browsing the web, etc is problem free, but if I just wanted to browse the web I would have bought the tiny macbook. This issue is different from the GPU issues that occurred close to release. I haven't had any screen glitches or color flashes.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
