multicam edititing in adobe premiere pro

[SelArom]

hey a friend let me borrow his laptop for a few days while he's out of town to mess around with adobe premiere pro 2.0 to compile some footage I took of a show. I shot from 3 different cameras and was hoping to take advantage of the multicamera editing available in premiere...

so I followed the instructions noted here:

http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/premi...es/prp2it_multicam/prp2it_multicam.pdf

and it worked okay until I got to the part where it says to click play and start changing the camera views. instead of playing, it instead brings up a window that says "Rendering Required Files"

why in the hell is it doing that? I thought the whole point was to be able to do this on the fly... what is it trying to do? there is no mention of this anywhere in that tutorial and googling didn't bring up anything... these are all minidv tapes taken with the same specifications in widescreen 48khz audio at 16 bit so what the hell is it trying to render?

please tell me what I am doing wrong, I don't want to have to wait half an hour everytime I want to tweak the multicam settings!

thank you

did your friend let you mess up with his laptop?

actually i figured it out. it's the audio that's rendering not the video. I killed the audio track an imported a separate audio track that syncs to all the videos... and it works great!!

so thanks
