The time remap settings are not working on this time line and I wonder whether that is a result of it’s 10bit setting…

Thanks!

Thanks Walter-

You are right about one stream-I’m finding that anywhere I want to crossfade I have to be really careful about length..It’s like nip and tuck central…I hope an audio mixdown will ease the pressure (right now I’m using 10 tracks audio/3 tracks video)

I would love a Fibre Channel setup. Maybe I’ll get my wings after this gig. =)

FWIW, I tried Automatic Duck-ing my show onto a Media Composer and ended up ending the session and bringing my G5/Aja to the Post House to online directly using their D-Beta deck. Things went just fine.

I think this makes me an official FCP convert.

Thanks for your help!

Um..I spoke a little soon- the Motion menu on the Viewer is not usable right now.

Hi Christian-

I was having similar problems w/ crashing and general instability until I added RAM. I read at the G5 Owners Support Group that 4.5 gig is the general sweet spot for FCP, as it loves to use the RAM. So now we have 5.5 gigs here (Crucial RAM) and the system is a rock. It really is money well spent. ‘Specially for a rig like yours!

Take care,

Bee

Thank you so much for your informative reply. I was hoping you could expand on what you consider to be correct posting technique. If I am in error in spirit or execution then it behooves me to yield to greater minds and take my lessons humbly. The example you propose in your posted replies to this topic (which for others has proven to necessitate an easily expedited solution set) appears to be a combination of the pre-adolescent cognomen “Dude”, with the street-Teutonic epithet “putz”, seasoned with a little Darth Vader/Great and Powerful Oz: “Your expectations are unrealistic due to inexperience”. All the while-and pardon my effusiveness here-presented with a void of technical expertise which is remarkable considering that the original question posted (albeit delivered with a subject line inferior to the high water line of honor and intellectual rigor that you have naturally come to expect as an esteemed and learned contributor to this forum), was in fact a question that solicited a technical reply.

So. What began as an unadorned process question about a piece of software has become a deeper heuristic journey.

I eagerly await any reply. You don’t even have to answer me. Just call me names and pretend that you have knowledge you couldn’t possibly deign to consider sharing with such a commoner as myself. For me, it is enough to have consorted, however briefly, with a genius.

Gratitude!

Thanks for the link and the knowledge!

I’m almost done with this thing. Onlining tomorrow. Then I can swim in lakes.

specialcase-

thanks for yr. response- I was making the mistake of running everything raw and huge instead of trimming where I could. You are right about life span- the clip got less bogged when I paid attention to particle life. In the end I managed to make eight particle emitter events cooperate happily. Most of it was a combination of learning to be judicious with the cake frosting and climbing the new app learning curve.

FWIW-I know this is another post altogether, but, does the video card make such a significant difference?

TYVM, Bee
