Choppy video in Pitivi

Question

I am trying to edit 720p mov video footage in Pitivi, and when I place 1 clip in the timeline it plays fine in realtime. The problem begins when I add another clip and try to edit. Besides the 1st clip (that continues to run in realtime), all the other clips or cuts are choppy. I currently have 3gigs of ram and an Intel duo core processor. And using 10.10. Is there something I can try? I've heard of Kdenlive, is it better that Pitivi in handling 720p footage?

Thank you very much!

Sounds to me like you should report a bug. To do so press Alt+F2 and enter ubuntu-bug pitivi.

It would be nice if people giving -1 would provide the reason, that is how the downvote is expected to be used. The last part on the question asks for alternatives to Pitivi. – João Pinto Nov 06 '10 at 16:43
