Hi Robert,
What other cards do you have in your system and is one of them in the other 100Mhz PCI-X slot?
What kind of storage array are you capturing to? Run Disk Speed Test and let us know the results.
Try capturing with Blackmagic Deck Control. Does that work?
“Also everything that I do capture, either uncompressed or downconverted during capture needs to be rendered before it can be played back in real time. “
Once you’ve chosen the easy setup in Final Cut Pro > Easy Setup, make sure you create a new sequence as your old sequences will still be configured using a previous setup.
regards
