thanks for this video. 2D graphics insertion information was quite helpful

Thanks for the lesson. I have multiple 360 and 180 3d cams and Premier. I'm clueless at this point.

You're welcome, Doug! Have the lessons helped? Is anything missing?

[@doougle]

@@DavidAddis I'm still too clueless to say.
I'm thinking of upgrading my computer to make the editing run smoother. Any suggestions? Is it ram, cpu, video card? All of the above? System optimization could be a video for your series.

[@DavidAddis]

@@doougle Yes all of the above 🙂 Although only one will be a bottleneck at any one time. You could try doing 'whatever you want to do faster' and keep Task Monitor open, and see what hits 100% usage - that'll be what you need to upgrade. Most likely the graphics card, but it could be RAM, processor or the HDD speed. I'll consider it for its own video!
