  • Producer not playing nice w/FCS

    I installed the trial version of Producer last night to see what kind of performance I would get on my Powerbook 1.25(pretty good w/ SD & DVCproHD by the way). This morning I tried to open the project I’m doing in FCP and it kept crashing. It finally opened after several tries (and trashing prefs). Then launching Motion gave me the same problems. I’ve never had this kind of trouble from FinalCut and the only difference in yesterday and today was installing Producer. I uninstalled Producer then relaunched FCP and all is back to normal. Anybody had this kind of problem? I’d really like to move up to Producer from my 2 M100is but, I need to be able to have a stable FCS on the same systems.

    Hi Matt,

    Certainly the drivers for the hardware based systems clash, so perhaps the same is true for the producer software model.

    Perhaps you could get around it the same way – have two partitions on your PB harddrive, one for FCP and one for media 100, and boot into whichever one you need to use.

    I think I’ll hold on to one of my M100is and maybe get an HD down the road.
