If you want to know more about correct file formats and transcoding then check out our Technical Workflow for Premiere Pro training. SOLUTION: Transcode your footage in Adobe Media Encoder to ProRes or DNx. They’re processor intensive formats that can slow your machine down as well. Because this is an article about eradicating crashing in Premiere completely, stop editing using mp4s. movs compressed using h.264, but I don’t recommend it. Yes, you or someone you know may have successfully edited using. Try to edit with any video that’s in a delivery format and you may encounter problems in Premiere.

Okay, this is THE most common cause for Premiere crashing: The file format of the video files you are editing with.
