Start with one analysis
Set Max parallel analyses to 1 and select a few representative clips. Include the resolution and clip lengths you expect to process in the main batch. Keep Detailed analysis and your custom effect values the same throughout the comparison.
Record the total time from starting the queue to completion. Also check whether Premiere remains usable and whether every clip succeeds. This gives you a baseline for the same work run concurrently.
Increase the number gradually
Repeat the batch with a value of 2. Enable reanalysis so completed effects are actually processed again. Keep the source clips and other settings unchanged.
Try a slightly higher value if the queue finishes sooner and Premiere remains responsive. Stop increasing when the total time no longer improves or Premiere becomes less responsive. You do not need to reach eight to benefit from parallel processing.
Compare total queue time, not the progress of a single clip. Several concurrent analyses may each run more slowly while still completing the batch sooner.
Check memory use and Premiere responsiveness
Long or high-resolution clips can make several analyses compete for memory and processing time. Use Windows Task Manager or macOS Activity Monitor to see how the machine behaves during the test.
If Premiere becomes sluggish or clips fail at higher concurrency, lower the setting and rerun a small batch. Leave capacity for the rest of your editing work when you plan to keep using Premiere.
Detailed analysis is a separate choice. It can require more time, so assess its effect on the picture before using it across a large queue. Do not change it midway through a concurrency comparison.
Prepare a longer run
- Save the project and confirm that all required media is available.
- Use the concurrency value that worked in your test.
- Review the queue and enable Save project if needed.
- Keep Premiere running and prevent the computer from sleeping during processing.
- Inspect individual clip results and play the footage when the queue finishes.
The UXP Save project option saves the project at completion. Rendering previews and exporting the final video are separate steps in Premiere.
If a batch becomes unreliable
Return to one parallel analysis and retry a single affected clip. Compare its behavior with native Warp Stabilizer in Premiere. Increasing the retry limit will not resolve analysis that never starts or stops responding.
