So I'm having some issues with the Record feature. Any help figuring out how to free up resources or fine tune my system so that when I use it I don't start dropping frames like mad would be most welcome. I can be running an effect heavy column no prob one second, but as soon as I turn on Record, things get sluggish, and I find that when I look at the rendered footage after it has been recorded, the frame rate is all sped / messed up for some reason.
The clips I'm using are 30fps, the composition is set to 30fps. I have tried recording just a single clip at a time without any fx on it and experienced zero fps drop, and when I play back that rendered footage then there is no frame issue. But with the realtime fx-heavy processing of multiple layers, I often see the fps drop to 15, and then when I check the recorded takes, the speed is all outta wack.
Is this because it's 'stitching together' the frames from the slower fps which I saw in the output monitor while it was recording, and so once put back together causes the sped up effect? And if so, what are some recommended strategies for tackling this issue? I'd looked into trying a Clip Render approach, but given what I have in mind I need to use the global Record function instead...
Hope my question makes sense!
