    PowerBook G4 or PowerMac G5 Dual PowerPC
    Final Cut Express 3.5.1 HD
    O.S. 10.4.11

    Just inherited a P2 project via LaCie hard drive.

    Is there any way to convert the P2 files already
    on the drive with the above hardware and software,
    or must I have Final Cut Pro and an Intel Mac?

    Thanks in advance.

    You don’t have to have an Intel Mac if you can find an old version of FCP. You need FCP5, not 5.1. You cannot use with media with Express.

    All the best,

    Tom, some day I will think of a proper way to repay you for
    all of the great help you’ve given me over the years.
    Until then, thanks again for your quick response and
    wonderful experience.

    Enjoy your weekend.
