ny idea what FCP version is the highest you can run for a non-intel mac?

[Russell Lasson]

FCS2 is possible, but it depends on if you’re talking about a Dual 2.0 G5 PowerMac or a G3 iMac Special Edition.

What do you want to run it on?

Thanks for the reply…

I edit mainly in the studio (one FCP and 4 Avid’s) and haven’t upgraded my home system from FCP 4.5 – as I waited to get the new Intel Mac, CS, FCP 2 and there was no real urge – just moved – new baby and I still can’t swing the G5 yet…

Now I have few side projects that people want to calibrate on and share sequences but were a mixed bag of FCP versions.
Its just DV mind you …

My FCP 4.5 pro bundle works DV just fine but I was duped by getting the Educational version when I was in school and didn’t know about the upgrade problem…
so I’m guessing I’m odd man out..

I have an Apple Power Macintosh G4/1.0 DP (Quicksilver 2002) features dual 1.0 GHz PowerPC 7450 or PowerPC 7455 (G4) processors each with the AltiVec “Velocity Engine” vector processing unit, 256k “on chip” level 2 cache, and 2 MB of DDR SDRAM level 3 backside cache
1.5 of RAM, an ATI Radeon 9800 pro graphics card with 128 MB of VRAM
