MC 2.8 freezing when I try to capture HD video
Hey guys,
I’m really struggling trying to figure out what is causing my Avid to freeze every time I try to capture HD video. Here’s the situation:
When I try to capture HD, the computer locks up to the point where I can’t even end the application, or restart my computer. I just had to have a new hard drive put in along with a new mother board, and just confirmed that they are the same as my last ones.
So I started to trouble shoot and here’s what I got so far:
It’s not the fire wire port, as the same port was able to read an external hard drive
Its not the fire wire, as I bought a new one and have had the same problem.
It’s not the camera port, because when I digitize the same tape, from the same camera port only down convert it to SD and run it through the Mojo, it works.
I am indeed unplugging the mojo when I am trying to capture HD. And, about a week before I had my parts replaced was able to capture HD no problem. My computer is definitely capable of handling it.
I can still edit my existing HD footage with no issues at all
Not once have I gotten an error message when my computer freezes.
My system specs are:
Dell precision workstation 470
Dual 3.00Ghz Xeon processors
3GB ram
nvidia quadro fx 1400 video card
windows XP SP2
hyperthreading on
media saved to a gforce 500GB harddrive with almost nothing on it and plenty of space remaining.If you guys have anything it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!
John
