Fusion Page painfully slow

PostSun Apr 29, 2018 4:52 am

Im trying to simply create some 3D text and track it into my shot, which I think I have done, except for the fact that the page is so so slow I dont even know if the track I have is good or not. I click on a new frame and its 7 seconds or so before it updates. When I click the play button to start caching the frames, it updates 1 frame after about 10 seconds and after that it never updates. Meanwhile my computer fans are spinning up. Im using a GTX 980 Ti and am on a 2015 Macbook Pro here at my house (Quad core 2.5ghz i7, 16gb RAM). I wouldnt expect amazing speeds, but I wouldnt expect something this terribly unresponsive either. I dont know if its a bug, or if I am doing something wrong or if Fusion is just a power hog and my computer wont cut it. Any pointers would be appreciated!

I have had a similar experience on a 22-core machine with two 1080ti's trying to animate a credit roll - more than 5 seconds to update when I click to a new frame. Haven't tried with beta 2 yet....

ouch.

Bummer as I was hoping to use fusion to do several titles for this project. Clearly that's not going to work.

Have you tried turning off HQ and MB in the middle panel (Right Click)?

Not yet. Ill try that when I can get Resolve working again. I'm locked out of my project since Resolve crashes everytime I try to open my project. Im literally unable to work on it.

I had that - the lock out.
I opened another project which didn't crash, clicked on the edit tab, closed project then opened the first project again which then opened in the edit tab and was fine from there.

Strangely, performance is better currently on my geriatric Mac laptop (2.3 GHz Intel Core i7) than on my monster 22-core with the 1080ti's. Must be some setting.....

Can anyone explain what this means? I right-clicked in the node area but it was not obvious....

right click in a blank area next to the transport buttons to control High Quality and Motion Blur in the preview.

Took me a while to find those as well. Not an obvious place for common controls like that..

(especially when there's a central toolbar taking space for some collection of nodes...)
