Yes.

Thanks for making me think about that. The M-Audio device has a software button which toggles between internal and external sync. I switched it to external and it worked.

New problem surfaced see new thread.

Thanks again,

DC

Apple has a way of saying, “Oh sure this can do anything!!” until you buy it.

The lower third is a photoshop file. Which if it had to just render I would understand, but it stops playback whether it is rendered or not.

My virus software is turned off …

Thanks,

Thanks for the reply.

I guess I did not mention, but I do have an external hard drive. I put the media files on the external HD and the application and other program files on the internal HD. Still, I only get a few seconds of HDV to play before it drops frames. On DV, I can’t even put a lower third on top of a clip without it dropping frames. 2.1 Ghz, 2.5 gb of ram. I doesn’t seem to make sense, to me. This, it seems to me, should be plenty of power to play back a clip. Perhaps I am wrong. But I was told differently when I bought it.

Thanks,

Dan
