Question for Premiere users.

When setting up your project, are you splitting your source Bluray/DVD into seperate chapter files for your workflow?

Or is a single source file per movie (coverted to lossless format before importing, of course) stable enough to create an unlimted number of clips in the timeline as needed?

Curious because my last edit was on CS3 with chpater clips as my souces. Now I'm on CS6 and a much faster PC.

Wow, the legend!

My system seems to handle it all at once, but I also create proxies for initial editing!

Proxies? You mean a frameserver app like AviSynth? I'm done with Avisysnth in Premiere projects, as a stable plugin no longer exists.

No, like ripping a low quality version along with the high quality one, then editing on the low quality one, and swapping files later for fine tuning

Right click on your source video file in the project and you will see the option to create proxy, just click it and let Media Encoder do its thing and you get smooth playback.

(I have CC but I don't think this has changed since CS6)
