Activity Forums Avid Media Composer Error during Digital Cuts

  • Error during Digital Cuts

    Posted by Bob Dorough on January 22, 2009 at 8:33 pm

    I have a nice little annoying bug that cropped up a few weeks ago. Everything was working fine until one day I tried to make a digital cut and my MC stopped and gave me an error:

    “Exception: SFCONS_VIDEO_UNDERRUN, DIOerr: Avid DNA detected Hardware Underrun”

    Now it’s to the point where making a digital cut is nearly impossible… stopping every few seconds or so. At one time I also got this error:

    “The application binary file has been corrupted. Please reinstall the system.”

    Now, here’s what I’ve done, but to no avail:

    1. Threw out the MCState file

    2. Uninstalled/Reinstalled Avid DIO Runtime

    The DNA box is on its own firewire card with nothing else plugged into the card.

    Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    Have you tried mixing down your sequence? Possibly a corrupt file somewhere?
