I hope this problem hasn't been addressed before and I just didn't find it, but I tried a couple of searches and couldn't find it anywhere else... I've been getting some really bad screen flicker in my preview and source monitors in Premiere CS4. It feels like a frame rate or frame conversion issue, since it seems to flicker between frames (kind of back and forth, like it can't decide which frame it should be on). This has never been an issue for me before, either with CS3, or the project I just finished with in CS4. All the footage is HVX200 MXF files shot at 720p (anamorphic) and 23.976 fps. The project settings match the footage exactly (CS4 has a default profile for this footage). This was not a problem a week ago with another project I was working on that had all the same settings and was shot with the exact same camera at the exact same settings. When I export, the problem no longer exists and the footage looks amazing, but for some reason just the in-software monitors are causing it. I was thinking that maybe a forced render or something might fix it, but it won't render anything since the source files match the project settings. If anyone can offer any suggestions I will gladly welcome them! This is incredibly frustrating to deal with, especially since there is a fight scene that I can barely watch. If you need any more information, just ask. I will be watching this thread intently.
I need to make a slight correction. The flicker is, in fact, there in the previous CS4 project that I mentioned. I just didn't notice it as much since there was far less movement in it.
