Quad Core, no DL hardware installs

[Robert Lindqvist]

Hi,

I’ve tried some more but nothing seems to work.
The DL PCIe don’t show up, all settings are greyed out.
Uninstall/install, trashing prefs (DL drivers also
does that for you now?? At least FCP starts up with
“new” settings when un-/in-stalling, saw that on other
G5 the other week aswell).
I have reparied permissions.

ANY IDEAS?

I captured some DV and did a 3 minute piece.
I also captured some HDV with no problem (didn’t have time
to edit that now).
Export to MPEG2 using compressor (best, 90 min setting) took
a while longer then I had hoped for. Also rendering a text
over a clip with a fade to black effect (text also has a
fade with “pen” effect) took a while longer then expected.
(still a bug there it can’t play that in realtime without
the fade to black on video “jump-fades”, instead of smooth
fade…I always need to render that combination).
Changing from DV to HDV deck hardcrashed the whole puter,
needed to hold the powerbutton to make it reboot. I haven’t
had problem like this before when changing deck.
I will try to remove the extra ram. But maybe there is a
DOA G5, it just don’t respond as I belived it would.

best,
Robert
