Apple Motion is running really slow!
Hey, I'm hoping someone can you give me a hand with this.
I'm making a project in Apple Motion, of an animated large map. It has quite a few layers and high resolution photos. Once I imported, all the assets into Motion, it was running really slow, so I simplified the layers and then it was running really well for about an hour of work.
Now I’ve reopened it. And it’s really slow again. It takes about 30 seconds to even move the timeline play head. Clicking on anything or changing any setting takes 10 to 30 seconds.
I’m on an M1 Max MacBook Pro with 64BG of memory, 1.6TB of available storage. So I doubt it’s a hardware issue.
My assumption is that Motion struggles when there are a lot of high resolution images.
Does anyone have any ideas?
thanks :)
UPDATE: I was viewing the active camera and perspective view, I just changed it to only show active camera, and it instantly became responsive again. Not perfect, but much better.
With that said, it should be able to show the 2 views, so if anyone has any thoughts, on how to get it to run with 2 views, it would still be appreciated.
