Can you share info about the source media? That's likely the problem (variable framerate long GOPs, etc.) You can share mediainfo and tell us how you captured it exactly:

RE: Two files from same camera - one clip plays, next one stutters

For this type of recording, 8K is definitely not necessary. 4K is sufficient.But it is amazing how much you can get out of this 10-bit 4:2:0 material with color grading.The result itself is also amazing if you only export it in 8-bit 4:2:0. Couldn't

RE: Vegas Pro 22 Horrifically Slow HVEC rendering

Glad that helped somewhat. How did you apply the LUTs? Through the color grading panel? (You're not applying 3 LUTs to a single piece of media I assume). Others have reported a memory leak with the LUT Fx but I haven't seen it myself. I don't think

RE: Color Curves in CG are not completely visible when status bar enable.

I find that lifting the divider bar between the CG and the timeline lets the CG panel display fully. Raising and lowering that divider shows the elements of the CG expanding and shrinking. The color curves plot expands and shrinks too, but it stops
