AJA IO LA stutters on playback
PB g4 17″ with 2GB of ram
AJA io LA on FW400 port
G-raid on FW 800 cardbusI cut an entire show at a client’s site and had NO playback issues.
Now when I am back at my shop and try to play back the sequence to my external monitor and for Betacam layoff the picture freezes but the audio continues.
i’ve checked the scratch disk, sequence settings, viewer size but can’t seem to figure it out.

AJA will be the first to tell you that you cannot run any AJA box and any other firewire device (like a camera or drive) on the same buss (the FW400 and FW800 are on the same buss of the G5). You will be told that you need a seperate FW800 card to run your drive.
With that said, may I suggest that you disconnect your AJA I/O LA, and see if the sequence will simply play back from the G-RAID onto your Mac screen without the AJA I/O LA box hooked up. If it can’t, you got drive issues (maybe it’s too full). If it does playback, get a 50 dollar FW800 card, and this will resolve your problems for layoff.

As I said in my first post:
I AM using a FW800 card on the cardbus for the G-Raid.

how full is your drive? FW800 and SATA drives decrease in performance as they get above 60% full – if yours is 90% full, you’ve got problems.
