Answers.Text: They released an update this past fall (2014). The "memory issue" is better, but still seems to grind down after a (much longer) time of editing. Usable most of the time, but I don't experience if I follow the fix above.

Answers.Text: Ah, ok, I wonder if it is related to the Quicktime embedding issues.  There are some pretty severe issues on some systems with the old 32 bit quicktime engine that Premiere has to use for processing mov files.  Sounds like this is probably hitting on that.  Glad they had a work around to help it behave and thanks for sharing what you found.

Answers.Text: In one project I get repeated Adobe QuickTime Server errors since installing Miraizon. But I can't centralize it, the project has a lot of linked PSDs and AEPs. But this "workaround" also helps with that. I still get the error when opening the project, but I can still export via AME -sometimes I have to break it into small sections and copy into a new sequence to avoid the error.. I assume some sort of memory problem.

Body: <p>Since installing Miraizon DNxHD / ProRes Codec I am not able to play my timeline in real-time. It gives me a few frames and then the video freezes and audio keeps playing. I changed from Performance mode to Memory mode and now it will play through, however if I stop and start a couple times. It reverts to the former behavior. Specs of my system and project below.</p>
  
  <p>I have Premiere Pro CC 2014 on a Windows 8 PC i7-4930 16GB RAM. Drive structure: Win/Programs on 256GB SSD, Project/Media on 1TB SSD, Preview/DB on 5TB RAID 0 7200 Seagates.</p>
  
  <p>I'm working on a shortform project, basically 5 sequences comprising 18mins of a 22min show. Two streams of prores from from a 5D,6D 2 cam shoot, and I'm putting slides, stockfootage, and titles in.</p>
  
  <p>I was able to play my timelines in real-time just fine (preview format DNx 115 1080p 23.976) until installing Miraizon DNxHD / ProRes codec. I got it because the editor putting the final show/QC together is on FCP7.. anyhow after installation I notice my preview files were gone -not surprising-. If I delete my preview files I get a couple clean playbacks (after they regenerate) and then the original behavior, same if I restart PPro.</p>
  
  <p>I tried running the QT installer and "repairing" that after someone suggested that the QT SDK might be the issue. No difference. Makes more sense to re-install DNxHD codec from avid probably- I'll do that next. </p>
  
  <p>Has anyone had a similar issue or Can you suggest what might be going on?</p>
