Why is it that Maya finds it soooo hard, soooooooo painful, to play
1) image planes
2) image sequences
3) by and large any video files
when:
1) the same files can be scrubbed at lightning speed by other applications on the same machine
2) the image sizes are perfectly reasonable (between 300 and 700 across, and yes, sometimes square)
3) the files are on a local drive.
Am I missing something?
Do I need to upgrade? I am running Maya 7. Is this something that has been adressed in m8 or 8.5?
It really makes using this program difficult for animation, which is, after all, the point, right?
