    I was hoping someone with hardcore Motion experience would chime in, but no-go. Everyone is busy working I’m guessing. So I’ll take a guess based on what I know…

    Going with a discrete card will definitely improve Motion performance. The 512 MB on the 17″ probably won’t be noticeable unless I’m doing lots of 3D work.

    So probably the middle MacBook Pro 15″ with the discrete 256 MB card is the way to go. Still portable, still a better performer with Motion than the models lacking a dedicated card.

    Feel free to chime in if I’m way off here.

    “I’d also like the ability to render Pro Res HQ HD in Final Cut.”

    Meant to say I’d also like the ability to render 10-bit Pro Res HQ HD in Final Cut.

    Bret, that’s awesome that you provide this zip file for download. I just came across this post searching for something else, but I’m going to make use of the files, I guarantee!

    Thanks a lot,

    B.

    It could be a corrupted render file. When I run into something like this, I take my files offline (unmount the media drives) to narrow things down. You could try just taking the render files offline first. Quit FCP, then add an “X” or something into the Render Files folder name, then re-launch FCP. See how it plays. If this solves it, I’d just trash those old render files and re-render.

    If this doesn’t solve it, try taking all your media drives offline, or move QT files out in groups so you can narrow it down. You’ll have to close FCP everytime you do this, mind you.

    Danny,

    I believe you’ll find this file in:

    Home > Library > Preferences > Final Cut Pro User Data > Button Bars.

    Grab the Custom Button Bars file out of that folder (unless it’s named something else) and put it in the same folder on your machine. Then, click on your button bar and choose “load all button bars” and choose that file.

    That should restore it.

    Billy
