Thanks Dwaine for the tip.

The GTX285 is in the lowest pci-e slot (the only double wide one)
The GT120 is sitting just above it, so it’s in the second slot from the bottom.
Are these slot 1 and 2?

I don’t have any display attached to the GTX285, I did my homework with your detailed mac config guide:)

Is there any kind of cuda tests to see if my card performance is right?

this is the original setup. https://i54.tinypic.com/qyfko6.jpg
Currently I don’t have a decklink card, so I just want to playback the footage on my main display.

Anyway, the results are for this config:
– playback shows 24.0fps maximum
– playback slows down when there are cuts in the timeline
– got some tearing too in the viewer…

thank you!

thanks Jan, this is exactly why I’m trying the Lite version first.
I’ve set the playback rate to 26fps, now it says 25fps, so it seems that solved the problem, thanks! But what is the logic behind this, where does that extra frame come from?

Anyway, I still get slower playback if the timeline contains cuts. It’s like Davinci’s slowing down at the beginning of each clip.
Activity monitor shows 30MB/s transfer rate, my HDD measures around 100-120MB/s so that shouldn’t be the problem.
I thought this will be the easiest footage to handle.. One single prores422 clip, cut it up with scene detector, each clip contains one, or two nodes, without blur, sharpen, or NR.

Fine, I’ll try softraid first, thanks!

so you don’t answer my questions because I own only the Lite version, which is free but absolutely legal?

all these things will be solved with the full version?
