  Hi,

  I’m not sure what is causing this problem so a few tests might help to narrow it down.

  Were you using FCP5 with DeckLink Extreme or were you previously using FCP 4.5? The reason for this question is that FCP5 has a higher memory (RAM) requirements compared with FCP 4.5.

  With what functions does FCP go slow? For example, during capture, playback or performing some other function?

  Does the problem occur if you create a new project and work with it or is the problem limited to your existing project?

  Please shut down your Mac and remove some of its RAM. Then start it up again and see if the problem goes away. If so, then I would suspect bad RAM. If reinserting the RAM causes the “out of memory errors” in FCP again, then it is bad RAM.

  This is just a start but should help to narrow down the problem.
