Yeah, I already looked at Google. According to multiple sources, RAID is not needed for DV editing. It is more nesecary for HD or HDV editing. RAID 0 sounds way too risky for my blood.

A lot of my choices are based on Adobe’s recommendations on their web site. I chose the Quadra since they fully support it. But suggestions are welcomed. Either way, I think my new machine will rock.

I plan using my external drives for the editing.

Yeah…The version at home is 1.5 and the version at work is 1.0…I will just bring the drive home again tonight and export the sequence I did there as an AVI since it’s complete. Thanks for your help.

I mean it looks good on an NTSC monitor before I burn it to a DVD.

I always make sure that I turn off the major stuff like Virus software (by quitting the whole process tree) and other annoying stuff that shouldn’t be running. However, where can I access this knowledgebase to find out what Adobe recommends? Thanks a lot.

I actually just bought a brand new Radeon (I don’t know the model number since I am at work right now). I bought it so I could switch to a duel monitor system. Even with the new card, though, I was still having slowdowns with Direct3D. Odd huh?

I have read from several sources (not on Creative Cow) that Direct 3D is primerily used for gaming. I could be wrong. In my own experience (with a 5-year-old PC 512MB of RAM and a 1.0ghz pentium 4 processor) that m playback is choppy (on larger projects) when I am using Direct 3D. I switched Premier to GDI mode (after reading several other forums) and the plackback is perfect. I was really speaking from my own experience (which I should have clarified). Perhaps things are different with newer, faster PCs. Sorry if I messed anyone up. Lata.

Use GDI. Direct 3D is used for gaming. I don’t know why it is even an option in Premier since it has no real bearing on the program. Using GDI will make your playback smoother, especially as your projects increase in size.
