I need a little help here! I've read the manual about the Render Cache, because my GPU is not very fast, and doesn't seem to work very well. I marked a clip for render cache and then I selected the Render Cache for "user". When the percentage went to 100% I hit play. It doesn't play in real time. Is there something I'm doing wrong? When using the GPU my graded clip plays at 12fps.
Render Cache creates DPX files at the timeline resolution. I would suspect you do not have adequate storage bandwidth to play back the HD DPX cache frames in real time.
