Let me ask you this…
Do any of your computers use 10.4.9? My Mac Pro is using 10.4.9 and any new projects are just fine and most older projects are fine but our movie feature will not open at all under 10.4.9. But it will open fine when I boot to my backup drive that has 10.4.8. The only differences beween these computers are the OS versions.
Just a thought.
BTW, when switching between our Mac Pro and G5, I have to delete the waveform files before opening projects. That was the only issue I was having until this one.

That’s right!
I pre-ordered mine the second week of August and received it in hand the last of September 2006.

Just had to check because so many people miss this one with the new Mac Pros.

BUT… How is your memory configured? Do you still have the original two 512 bars that Apple installed? How much totaly memory does your system have installed?
I constantly ask all of this because the Mac Pro is so very picky when it comes to the memory requirements. Here’s the Apple doc on this very issue:

Look at this and see if this doesn’t clear up your problem. Memory issues can lead to all sorts of issues that exhibit the wierdness that you are experiencing.

[Dave Jenkins] “I went up $25 a hour over SD. We bought the Kona Lhe, more HD storage, HD monitor and now shoot on XDCAM HD.”
So how do you like XDCAM HD?

Keep in mind…. Anytime you convert frame rates, you are talking lots and lots of time to compress… Especially H.264.

[JeremyG] “4 minutes of 1080 footage vs 20 minutes to 720p24N footage on an 8 gig P2 card makes the decision pretty easy especially whilst traveling around the world.”
Very good point!
We made that judgement call on a feature film for that very reason…
