  DV in a XDCAM EX sequence – dropped frames

  Posted by Christoph Baaden on July 2, 2009 at 8:11 pm

  Hello,

  We are mixing 23.98 anamorphic DV with native XDCAM EX footage in a XDCAM 1080 23.98 VB sequence.

  For whatever reason we are not able to play 2 layers of DV footage without dropping frames and/or having to render. Sometimes even a single layer already starts dropping frames. Is that normal?

  The system:
  MacPro 8 -core, 6GB RAM, newest version of FCP (6.0.6), both the OS and QT are updated to the newest version.
  Kona 3 on the latest driver. 2 RAIDS connected via ESATA.

  Thank you!

  Christoph

  PS. Sorry, this is cross-post from the XDCAM EX forum!

  Again…. This is due to your memory not being configured properly.
