that is odd, it should be working.
try repairing permissions from the disk utility.

Might look into Dell refurb workstations

that I don’t know…maybe google it.

you didn’t mention if it was SD or HD.
SD in a single layer should play fine.
though with your raid HD should work too.
If you want to leverage the most out of a Quadro 4000 you really need
to upgrade to CS 6.It will work in CS 5.5 but better in CS 6.
In either case a Quadro 4000 is a good investment for any post company
running Cs. -
Bill have you tried uninstalling the quadro driver?
the Nvidia site says it’s built in to Lion.
maybe that might help.
I think that other driver might be snow leopard only.

ya, apple left a lot of us out in the cold when they released final cut x.
an insider revealed the macpro tower will be end of life with possibly
one more release then imacs only. Apple is already late in releasing
a macpro with the latest intel processors…they used to produce
them ahead of everyone else.It might be possible to work with imacs in the future via thunderbolt,
but maybe not.I’m in no hurry to switch to pc. our facility has been mac centric
for the last 20 years. But one must adapt to stay competitive. -
If I was at a cross-roads between mac & pc I’d pick PC
since apple will likely be abandoning production of macpro
tower systems in the near future. -
forgot to mention I’m running the cs 6 compatible driver
from black magic. Ver 9.5 -
Bill I’m not sure why your mercury gpu accel is grayed out
other than your running lion. you might try the previous version of CUDA.
Tom D had an issue with the latest CUDA and he’s basically running the same as you.I have an 8-core macpro, quadro 4000 and snow leopard.
gpu accel is on and working with CS 6.
I just now played a completely unrendered sequence from a fw 800
external drive. it was 1080p 23.976 and it plays smoothly all the way
through, though the audio sync drifts. But the exported video was
completely in sync.In cs 5.5 it would have been stopping every few seconds and stuttering on playback.

[Tom Daigon] “I always save a “master” in either the Prores or the DNxHD format”
I do as well.
Unless a client refuses, a Full archive of everything is mandatory at my facility.
A lot of my work is commercials and indie movies.
Can’t be deleting that.
