    Please excuse me for psting as often as I have done in the past few days, but I am new to the world of Decklink cards so I’m having several problems with my newly purchased Multibridge system.

    -First whenever I apply any type of effect, be it dissolve, correction or what have you I get the solid red line above (Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5.1) and I cannot play the timeline or scrub it without video or audio dropping out. In fact, when you go to play the timeline it just goes black, without audio.

    -Secondly, as I have mentioned beofre in a prior post, whenever I’m rendering I lose whatever scene is on my monitor and throughout the process I get audio pops.

    My setup is as follows:

    ASUS P5WD2 Premium
    Intel 830D
    2-gigs Corsair DII800 (PC 6400)
    Raid 0 (3x WD 250G SATA2 w/16MB) running on an Intel Chip
    System Drive; 120gig WD ATA 133
    250 gig WD 250G STA2 w/16mb for export
    EVGA GF 6600GT 128MB vidoe card
    XP Pro w/SP2
    Decklink 5.2.2 drivers

    Does anyone have a clue as to why these problems are happening?

    Thanks

    The red line is normal, but if you are using a Black Magic NTSC/PAL timeline the effects will usually play real time.

    I guess I’d begin by reinstalling quicktime, directx, Blackmagic drivers if you haven’t already done that. You migh also try diabling the onboard audio in case it is fighting with the BM audio. You might also update or change your SATA drivers as the pops seem to be happening during disk i/o.

    Its a new problem for me but I use Decklink cards and not the Multibridge express.

    -Regarding the timeline…I am using Black Magic NTSC
    -I haven’t had a chance to uninstall any of aforementioned components…been too busy.
    -As for the SATA drives, they are brand spanking new!

    Could this poping be an issue of the Intel “on-board” RAID?

    Thanks

    -Just reloaded all drivers and added the latest Intel driver for it’s RAID chip…haven’t seen much of a difference.
    -Right now I’m moving files over to another drive and I am going to undo my RAID…speed test individual drives and maybe create a RIAD with 2 and not 3 HD’s
