    I see there is also a hardware problem that seems to be related to Lacie external drives. Does your system at work have Lacie drives attached?

    Yes, I use the exact same LaCie 500 GB HDD at work that I have at home though. I bought two of them at the same time and use one at work and one at home. I was also having the dropped frame problems at work using the internal Seagate drive too. I have completely restored the edit system to OS X 10.4.8 and everything is working just fine. So OS X 10.4.9 mixed with FCP 4.5 seem to be the problem. We have two other edit systems with OS X 10.4.9 on them, but they are running FCP 5 and are having no issues at all. All I have to say is why to go Apple. Thanks for costing me two days work.

    There are some who are having success by unchecking report dropped frames during playback and abort capture on dropped frames in user preferences. They are claiming no problems logging and capturing or getting any interruptions…. But I am concerned about dropped frames affecting the quality of the final project. Is there anyone on this list who captures without a net (no warning or about on dropped frames)?
