  I dont understand why am I not getting a signal to the deck!
  why is the quality button appears onlt green/ yellow or yellow/ yellow? why cant i get green/ green?
  I tried mixing down the video but it still stops at the same point

  A video underrun means the hard drive storage is not running fast enough to supply video & audio data to the output.

  Make sure that you close all bins except the one with the sequence. Also close all tools (effects, mixers, eq, etc). All these things eat CPU resources when they are open.

  If all else fails, you will need to output your project in smaller segments.
