Well I went ahead and installed it yesterday, and so far the Matrox 2, FCS3, and all my filters (Sapphire, Red Giant, FX Factory, Boris Red & Continuum 6 etc.) all are working perfectly on the new Nehalem machine. I really pounded on FCP yesterday and had no issues…
Of course the AJA drivers may be another issue…Dual 2.5 G5, IO, Kona LH, IO, Medea Raid, UL4D, NVidia 6800, 4Gig RAM

Shane is dead right-on on this one. You always have to organize P2 clips if you use that mode when capturing footage with the FS. And you should have done research on the Firestore before you used it so you would know never to shoot in P2 mode with the FS in the first place!! Always use the Quicktime mode and you never run into these FCP ingest problems!!

We have been delivering our HD work converted to SD via either on Beta or DVCAM tape, as specified by the local NBC, ABC, FOX, CBS) broadcast stations. They are requesting those formats now. When they air, they look okay (as far as color trueness and detail), but are letterboxed, so there is black on the sides and top when they play back on air. I find it astounding that they don’t/can’t even accept Quicktime HD files for ingest into their systems, as even the local Regal theaters do that for the commercials that play before the movies here, and they look absolutely gorgeous. I too get tired of having an excellent looking HD spot first have to undergo the SD downconversion and then get further squashed by the station’s poor encoding process before the spot makes it over the airwaves to the public’s new HDTVs.

Thanks for the quick heads-up Boris!
It is much appreciated!
The Continuum 6 filters I can’t live without now on most projects.
Good to know that most of them are working fine.
I may have to go ahead and make the leap to FCS3 now!Dual 2.5 G5, IO, Kona LH, IO, Medea Raid, UL4D, NVidia 6800, 4Gig RAM

Bob,
Have you tried any other BCC6 filters in FCS3??
If this new FCP build kills all the C6 filters,
I will definitely have to wait before (or even if) I decide to upgrade to FCS3.Dual 2.5 G5, IO, Kona LH, IO, Medea Raid, UL4D, NVidia 6800, 4Gig RAM

I have my dual G5 holding at Tiger and FCS2.
Nice to have a solid, stable machine for SD work with the IO.
Also good for sll things P2…Dual 2.5 G5, IO, Kona LH, IO, Medea Raid, UL4D, NVidia 6800, 4Gig RAM

Likewise Zane.
I’m tired of hearing all your cheerleading posts.
More than a few us are sick of them.
If you give your strident tone a rest, so will I.
You are speaking as if I am the only one raising these concerns, which is of course not true.
Now back to work on the “cheese.”Dual 2.5 G5, IO, Kona LH, IO, Medea Raid, UL4D, NVidia 6800, 4Gig RAM
