Tried everything I read about, but still stutters
Using DVCPro HD footage – 960×720 at 23.976. When played in FCPX it it looks like it’s not playing every frame. It’s smoothly jerky. I’ve set Better Performance in Prefs and have checked both dropped frames warning as well and have gotten no warnings. A/V Output is set to Kona 3 1280×720 @59.94. I’ve tested the Kona card (10.3.2) and it appears fine: 593 MB/s read & 490MB/s write. BTW, the clips play fine in FCP 7 using the same Kona card on a different volume.
Second issue is although I’ve unchecked the Copy Files to FC Events Folder in Prefs, large clips are appearing in the Original Media folder, not linked files as I expected.
I’m hoping this is some stupid setting(s) i”ve overlooked. Thanks for your thoughts.

John, I’m using FCPX with an AJA ioXT and I couldn’t get my 720p timelines to play out correctly until I set the Primary Format in the AJA Control Panel to 1080sf23.98. Don’t ask me why, but it works.

Thank you, Jason. Brilliant. It works. Did you point this out to AJA? Maybe they’d have an idea why this works. Don’t really care, though, just happy it’s working.

I’m glad my hours upon hours of troubleshooting could benefit you. I’m sure somebody at AJA knows how this works, but the support staff I talked to gave me a lot of other things to try, which didn’t work. I did tell the second fellow I talked to. Perhaps if I were more technically adept, it would make more sense to me, but as it is now, it seems rather counter-intuitive. But hey, it’s great to have solid A/V output!
