I already have…same issue. It seems there is something wrong with the Radeon 5870 and the 12 core Mac Pro.

That is so crazy! As stated before, I am not new at this. Have been editing FCP since version 1 with my Mac G4! I uninstalled, reinstalled, had Apple send me a new machine. Nothing works! Same footage on an older Mac Pro works beautifully! Does anyone have these same issues? It is NOT the video card as I swapped with my 2009 generation video card 4870. Apple is stumped. I am stumped. The arrogant FCP guys tell me the same thing every time. Uninstall your 3rd party software. Did that too. Nada. What is up with this new machine. Apple – now that your stock is at over 300, shift your focus from the ipad slightly to Pro Apps! We need you OR we are going to flock to AVID. Please does anybody have any thoughts besides uninstalling, cache, preferences?

I have also had NUMEROUS issues with my 12 core mac pro, hangs, judders, crashes. Mixing varicam and dslr all in a prores format. I have to older Mac Pros in my office that handle the same footage beautifully. Apple sent me a new MAC PRO which does the EXACT same thing. Please help! I spent $7,500 on a cheese grater!

By the way, an FCP Apple advisor suggested I try the DSLR footage in imovie. I tried it, and there are no hangs, crashes, etc. Ridiculous. I am really confused and would love any help.

I did have an intensity Pro card, however I pulled it and uninstalled the driver along with the Caldigit card and HDELEMENT. Yes, I have done systematic tests… I have eliminated everything from the system with the exception of a dedicated media drive. Still hanging, juddering and crashing on New generation Mac Pro # 2. Has anybody else experienced these issues? What about Twixtor, Magic Bullet out of memory issues? I paid $7,500 dollars for this machine that is inferior to my 1st and 2nd generation Mac Pros.
