Hey, Kevin. Thanks for the reply!
I figured the graphics card could be a weak link. The problem I’m having in sourcing an approved upgrade is that none of the approved cards seem to be approved for the MacPro(2,1). All of the cards on the approved list have a system requirement of MacPro(3,1) or newer.
Does anyone have a rock-solid PPCS6 system on a MacPro(2,1)? (I believe that particular MacPro was released in 2007.) This machine was rock-solid for me, using FCP7, but I can’t seem to get it to playback anything in PPCS6 without dropping frames.
Also….. We’ve got a lot of footage that we’ll be working with that was exported out of FCP7 as FCP/DVCProHD “masters.” Should that be transcoded and/or rewrapped before bringing it into PPCS6?
Again, I really appreciate your help!
James
