The rant:
Remembering my good experience with Ione MediaPro, I decided to purchase "The Phase One" version. BOY am I disapointed. It constantly hangs, runs out of memory, "forgets" to build previews and thumbnails, locks the catalog for editing. Appears utterly confused about videofiles. The progress wheel keeps running with no indication of what it is doing, "reads" the same file for hours .....
Is anybody running Phase One Media Pro and having a good user experience?
Any clues to what I might be doing wrong?
I have installed under win 7 ultimate 64 bit. 8 GB of ram. My catalog contains some 70.000 images (maybe this is just too much? ). I have tried having imagefiles on one harddrive and the cataloge file on a separate ssd. I have tried importing all in one go, and in smaller increments. Nothing seems to do the trick.Lightroom runs like a dream on the sam rig.
