slow going in HD
We are working on the newest Intell Macs and I can’t understand why the playback is so slow that audio is out of sync. I rendered one HD clip, and everything worked fine.
Is there a guide to keeping a system optimal for ND editing? -

6.0 4 gigs of ram OS 10.4.9
2 x 3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon
Scratch disc is an internal Hitachi HDS725050KLA260 465 gig capacity. -
That’s a good start.
Which of the dozen or more “HD” formats?bogiesan
This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”

From movie info:
Uncompressed 8 bit, 1280 x 720, millions
24-bit integer (Big Endian), Mono, 4800 KHZFPS: 23L98
data size 58.72 MB
Data Rate 377.01 mbits/sec
If you can tell me how to find more information about the clips, I will be happy to supply it.

You are trying to do uncompressed HD off of a single SATA drive?
For uncompressed HD you need a 5 drive array or better.
Try capturing to the DVCPro HD codec, even then, you should have a two drive striped array at the least.
