Editing with Resolve, thumbnails question please

Hi there;)

I'm editing in premiere, but I'll switch to Davinci for editing &color grading.

I did a few tests, and one point is very annoying for me.

Lets say that I'm sorting my dailies in different folders in the master section .
Day 1
Day 2
take 1
etc..

So I get my rushs on differents folders.

When I'm switching back from one to on another, all the thumbnails of each clip in the related window
completely go blank to regenerate or refresh the image of the thumbnail per each clip.

In premiere, you have this at the opening of the project, but when all the thumbnails are loaded, it dont refresh when switching beetween folders.

. . In davinci, it reloads everytime I'm switching beetween folders..

I'm doing something wrong?

Thks for your help;)

I don't see that here. Which kind of drive do you have your thumbnails on?

Hi,
sorry, I'm new here;)
So :

Late 2013 Imac
3,5 GHz Intel Core i7
32 Go 1600 MHz DDR3
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 Mo

My media drive is a Thunderbolt Gtechnology 8tb Raid drive
My cache drive is a USB3 Gtechnology 512Go SSD

(I swtich those to internal drive etc.. no change)

I filmed with my phone the screen

Every time I change a folder, my thumbnails are reloaded.

Thks for your help!

Best,

Balkan

Any ideas?;)

Now i see what you are referring too. These are read from disk so it seems your disk speed is not as snappy at supplying the images. Are these HD or 4K, on Thunderbolt 3 or USB?

More, since you're on mac, did you untick "put HDs to sleep whenr possible" in your Pref system > Energy saver ?

Hi
Thks for your answers
Sorry for the delay
@Sam yes I uncheck it,
@Peter, I'm on a imac pro now! the internal disk speed is like 3Gb/S!
Those are GH5 , 8bit or 10bit files, internal ssd disk.
Here is another test;

I'm changing folders, and I have to wait thumbnails to load again and again..
Any ideas?
Thks a lot

Thanks, ill ask the guys to check.

I have exactly the same problem. It always takes a while to refresh all the thumbnails. The strangest part actually is it only happens to those folders in my projects.
If I just browse files on my Synology server (DS1815+) in Media page, not the files I've already dragged into my project, there would be no waiting. No matter how many folders I already browsed, switch back to any of them, the thumbnails will be displayed immediately.
But after I drag any files into project folders, it always takes a while to refresh thumbnails when switching between those project folders.

Thks Peter !

It's very annoying for me, I wan't to switch to Davinci for editing (I'm on premiere now, I colorgrade in Davinci), and those thumbnails loading and loading again, making me hesitate to switch for editing(very time consuming)
Hope there is a fix!

thanks again!

(note: I downloaded the 15 studio beta6 today, same thing :/)
