Leopard Issues – Found Some Already

[Gary Adcock]

AJA has no mention of Leopard whatsoever on its website. I find that a bit odd.

no not really- FCS has not been updated yet- and with many features (like SmoothCam) that crash when launched in FCP 6.01 under leopard I would not expect AJA to update the drivers until the updates are complete for the OS, Quicktime and FCS-

I call this the Trifecta of DOOM, with FCP, the OS and QT ALL being updated at the sametime it may take a bit to get it right.

True! And I didn’t rush out to buy Leopard, so I have no real worries at this point anyway.

Hmmm, Only thing out of the ordinary is that the icon for my Firmtek RAID turned vertical. Works okay though.

Have a wonderful day.

Sean – I have exactly same problem with RocketRAID 2314 card. Array is visible in web GUI, but not on desktop or DiskUtility. I have made contact with Highpoint, they are looking into it.

Have you managed to solve the problem? I will let you know if I get a solution

I’ve been getting this same error message while rendering since the last Pro Apps update, also.

BUT… here’s the kicker.

I’m still using Tiger (10.4.10) with FCP 6.01, Quicktime 7.2, AJA Kona 3 4.0 drivers, etc.

I just click Ok on the error message and continue rendering.

If you want some insight as to WHY there are compatibility issues with certain programs like CS2 – I’d recommend you invest some time in reading the excellent breakdown of how things have changed in Leopard that ars technica posted earlier today.

It’s a long read, but very digestible as to some of the technical changes in 10.5 and WHY some programs written like CS2 will have some issues for a while.

Highly recommended.

might be busy for a while, I suspect the hard core tech and hacker communities are devouring this like a, well, like Leopards.

Hi Sean,

When you called HighPoint where they any help?

We are having the same issues with our Raid and don’t get much support because we are in Australia.
