Render issues
I am working in FCP ver. 5.0.4 in the DVC HD 1080i60 codec @ 23.98 fps; my editor is working with the same parameters. We are also both using Quad G5’s, with the exception that he has a Kona LHE card. The problem is this: simple effects, such as a dissolve or blow up – which don’t usually require rendering – have to be rendered on his system before playing. We’ve been through the entire gamut of RT settings and Render Control Preferences; we’ve tried (so I think) every setting configuration, and still the problem persists. I think his sequence preset may be different: I’m using the DVCPRO HD – 1080i60 preset in a 23.98 editing timebase; his may be a Kona setting. Could this be the issue? I would gratefully appreciate any feedback on the matter.

His card may be set for the effects handling be handled by the card, and your rig may be set for effects handling to be done by FCP. Check your prefs.
