  updated aja io to 3.0 software for tiger now can’t see in FCP

  Posted by Mpigott on September 7, 2007 at 8:18 pm

  I had noted that Tiger needs the 3.0 software of aja io software, so I did the aja io
  uninstall then the re-install with NTSC analog presets.

  Now in Capture preset (Audio Video Settings) it sees the AJA IO
  such as YPbPr betacam 10 bit

  It sees the aja io rs-422 controller

  but in Video Playback it sees only

  none
  or missing ProIO..NTSC…..etc
  plus the kona 2 outputs but this is fine

  and for audio playback

  it states Missing Pro IO Out.

  I have cycled the power on the IO many times and did many reboots
  but FCP will simply not see part of the PRO IO

  thanks for your help

  I should also add that Tiger is the latest
  and Final Cut Pro is 4.5HD
  and quicktime is 7.2

  FCP 4.5 really wants Quicktime 6.5.2 or whatever the last version of QT6 was. QT7 and FCP 4.5 really don’t play well together. Quicktime 7.2 has also been a little problematic even with the most up to date FCS2.

  Is it possible to roll back the QT to the 6 version on
  Apple OSX 10.4.10?

  Thanks

  Unfortunately, no. At the very least you could ‘roll back’ to 7.1.6, but the process is a long one.

  Oddly enough, I HAD the Aja IO working
  with FCP 4.5 AND Tiger after the recent
  OS upgrade from Panther to Tiger with an
  older version of the Aja drivers; but I
  must had gotten lucky on the first time.

  I am going to rtry some even older versions
  than 2.1, to see if this will work.

  And the weird thing is at the present state
  of non-workingness is that that FCP sees some
  of the io for capture I believe; but not for
  playback of audio or video.

  I have until end of business day to get this
  fixed or my boss will call in the FCP experts
  in Michigan to come across the border to
  help!

  Hoping I can get it going Monday September 10th!

  Thanks for your help

  Yeah 4.5 and Tiger does work, it’s just not the recommended setup. At they very least, I’d get rid of 7.2.

  This morning I removed the aja io drivers for 3.0
  (recommended for Tiger on aja.com)

  I started up the chain with v 1.2 driver
  then I tried 1.31 and it works nicely
  and the FCP sees all of the io settings both input
  and output

  Next step is I am running both HD (Kona 2 test)
  and SD (aja io) looping the playback and letting it
  play for half an hour.

  So far so good!
